The space itself has a hipster casual vibe, which is definitely a scene I'm comfortable in. Lots of wood and dark colors and fun light fixtures, there's even a few tables outside (but good luck snagging those during even remotely nice weather!). It's a relaxed atmosphere that's great for groups of friends, breakfast dates, or solo travelers looking to hide in a corner and study. If you're a fan of a bloody mary, definitely be sure to get one here! Unfortunately, in my opinion, both the food and the service were tremendously disappointing. I'll start with the former: I ordered the Vegetarian Breakfast that comes with a fried egg, grilled halloumi, mushrooms, baked beans, grilled tomato, spinach and hashbrowns. According to the menu, there's also unlimited toast and tea (or americano) when no substitutions, but neither of those options were apparently available to me. The food itself was plentiful, but unmemorable (and bland) compared to similar breakfasts I've had elsewhere. And the staff was, for lack of a kinder word, rude. Dismissive, too. It was actually the worst service I had during my entire trip, and it stinks when a place stands out for that, but that's what I'm gonna remember from SSBD.

(A rapid decline amongst the businesses on this street has been apparent in recent months, since the council implemented a new one way system about a year ago.) Le Café Fez has been open about two months now, and everything seems to be going well. I have not eaten here yet, but am looking forward to some fine Moroccan dining at some point. Instead I have indulged in their fantastic coffee, and have enjoyed sitting at the table out front, just watching the world go by. Le Café Fez is situated in one of the busiest sections of Clifton Street, and so it always prove3s entertaining! The interior is really colourful and bright, and not being very large it feels intimate and homely. There is a huge marquee out the back that can be used for private events, as well as catering for the overflow from the restaurant. Somewhat inevitably it is also a shisha garden. Le Café Fez is owned by a really lovely gentleman called Ali, whose mild manners and engaging smile brighten up even the dullest of days.

As soon as I spotted this new café/restaurant on Clifton Street a month or two ago I was drawn in by the exotic name and the prospect of some authentic Moroccan cuisine. The menu features classics such as Lamb tagine, and I tried a couscous-based dish which was very tasty (and reasonably priced) - plus there's some good options for vegetarians. I think they are still finding their feet and their customer-base, as it was quiet when I went there, but I really hope they make it work as this area needs a good Moroccan. You can sit outside at the front of the café or inside amongst their warm and cosy décor. And for those who enjoy smoking a shisha pipe, there's a tented area out at the back where you can indulge.

Stylish sophisticated design has gone into this renovated building with all the care and attention spent in transforming it into a masterful piece of interior design. The private seating gives your table a secluded feel and the service is pleasant and well worth the experience, additionally they are generous with the serving and extras. There is no service charge added, which makes the whole dining that more worth the trip. Food served in what I would imagine is Moroccan style tangine dishes makes the authenticity that more delightfully exciting, especially if you have never experienced this style of cuisine. I would recommend Burj Al Arab to anyone; I look forward to many repeat visits in the future.

It is fitting that there is a business of the same name on City Road. This area of Cardiff has a large Middle Eastern community, with Kurdish traders on the street outnumbering any other nationality. The Burj Al Arab on City Road is not a hotel however. It is a very elegant restaurant and coffee lounge that occupies a large property that looks like it used to be a pub. Unlike so many of the pubs in Cardiff today, this building is beautifully decorated in cream and brick red, with individual black canopies fanning out over the doors and windows. National flags of many of the Arab nations line a lintel that spans the width of the building beneath the upstairs windows. Pride of place is nevertheless reserved for the Welsh national flag that sits alongside a green ensign with an Arabic inscription. The food served here is clearly of Arabic origin, with tagines and couscous being the most dominantly featured items on the menu. Delicious!

I was really impressed with the prices which I thought were extremely cheap (However, upon looking at the menu online before writing this review to make sure that I get everything right, I realise that the meat dishes are actually not that cheap - not expensive, just not cheap).

The ambience of the whole place is brilliant and it's one of the places that I always recommend to people now.

We were there on at the weekend - people squeeze by, in the throws of various conversations - and you feel part of all the activity, watching it all go by either siting at the 'al fresco' wrought iron / mosaic table & chairs or lounging in the boudoir enclave. The staff are great and run around trying to sort out meals and seats for people as both are in Hot demand. The meat mains are from around £5 and veggie dishes around £2 - £4 - very, very delicious.

Open only at lunchtimes, it's always heaving with customers who either dine al fresco in the alleyway, or squeeze into the cosy covered area on brightly-embroidered Moroccan cushions. Not only is this place great value, serving up delicious Moroccan cuisine at very reasonable prices, but it's also friendly and atmospheric - almost like Bristol's own little corner of Marrakech! They serve up heavenly meatballs, lemon chicken (a personal favourite), lamb dishes, and plenty of vegetarian options such as cous cous with feta and lentil soup - all washed down with a glass of traditional mint tea. St Nicholas Market itself is right in the heart of Bristol, and in the food area you can take your pick of all sorts of international cuisine, from spicy Caribbean to hearty Portuguese - but Bab Mansour is my clear favourite! It's just a shame it's not open in the evenings - and you'll probably find yourself waiting a while for a seat most lunchtimes.

The smells of their food stewing immediately draws you in, but that might also be the colourful décor of various throws, brass table tops and glowly lamps. Their Morrocan menu uses Halal meat, and consists of lamb stews, chicken stews, meatballs, vegetable stews served with rice or cous cous. There are also soups, salads and daily specials; all written out on their hanging blackboards in front of the café. This place is run by partners Abdelouahid and Ahmed, who's passion for their food clearly shows when you step into this place. The mint tea is something to be tried - it is warm, soothing and refreshing and you get it served in a great looking Morrocan teapot. The vibe here is relaxed and comfortable, even if it is chilly outside you feel sheltered and snug among all the throws and cushion seatings. However if it fills up inside, there are outside tables where you can enjoy your food too! This place is a rare little hideaway that's super for bringing your friends and family to hang out and that makes you feel like you're on holiday somewhere far, far away...

CREDIT CARD FRAUD AS POLICY OF ALFARID OPPOSITE OF THE CATHEDRAL…read moreFood & Ambiente was good, but back at home I had to realize they charged me twice! For up to now 6 weeks (!) I try to contact them to solve the mistake, but either they did not respond my several emails and calls or once I got in contact via phone the lady hang up inmediately after I asked for the manager AND BLOCKED MY NUMBER! So I placed a corresponding review at tripadviser which was commented by them within hours doubting that I really had lunch at their restaurant despite I wrote them date, time and what we had for lunch including the sum of the bill, more than enough to proof my claim by checking their accounts, and asking for calling or writing to another email address than the one mentioned at their website. I did even this but still no response! So in the meantime I believe no longer in a sad mistake but intentional behaviour, therefore TAKE CARE OF YOUR CREDIT CARD WHEN VISTING AL FARID IN EXETER!!!
