Best Nightlife in Fes (2026)

Nightlife in Fes is low-key compared with Marrakech, and bars are rare inside the medina, where most riads and restaurants do not serve alcohol. The evening scene therefore centres on hotel bars and a few lounges. In the medina itself, Gayza Le Bar at Riad Fès serves Moroccan and international wines and cocktails among orange trees, with a rooftop terrace for sunset. Just outside the walls, Mezzanine has a terrace overlooking the Jnan Sbil gardens, with tapas, cocktails and electro music.

For later nights, head to the hills or the Ville Nouvelle. At Hotel Sahrai, Jungle serves Lebanese food, wine and cocktails on a terrace until 2am, and the Salon Lyautey rooftop lounge is a quieter place for Moroccan wine by the fireplace. At the Fes Marriott Hotel Jnan Palace, Croon Lounge serves cocktails and tapas until 2am, and EME Lounge specialises in whisky and cigars. Dress smartly for hotel bars, use taxis rather than walking long distances at night, and ask staff to call one for your return. Live music is easier to find over dinner, with Andalusian or traditional performances at several restaurants.
