Marrakech with Kids: A Family Travel Guide
MrsBlinks
If there’s one thing I want to say about Morocco, it’s that the country is full of surprises. It’s a North African powerhouse with sprawling souks, endless tanneries, and hectic Medinas. But it’s also a place of quiet oases, snow-capped mountains, and a stunning coastline. And when in Morocco, Marrakech is a can’t-miss city. We took our 3 young kids to Marrakesh and that visit came with a lot of surprises. We were worried about taking our kids at first but quickly realized that Marrkech had so much to offer for families. In this guide, you will find some of our best recommendations on where to stay, what to do and places to eat when traveling to Marrakech with your family.

Table de la Medina
@mrsblinks
The restaurant has an impressive menu with both traditional and modern Moroccan dishes. We loved the couscous Royale – a traditional dish of couscous with vegetables and meat. You can also try chicken kebabs and Moroccan Pastilla (a savory pie made with chicken, eggs, and almonds).
The restaurant has a beautiful setting with an outdoor terrace and views of the Medina. You’ll be welcomed with warm Moroccan hospitality and excellent service.

Lotus Jardine
مطعم حدائق اللوتس
@mrsblinks
I have one word for it, Instagrammable! What a pretty place. Good food, good vibes, and good people! We sat under the shadows of lush greenery, sipping on refreshing Moroccan mint tea. If you’re looking for a light meal, they have excellent salads (I ordered the beet salad, which was fantastic). The menu also has heartier options like chicken tagine. The Mexican undertones in the Moroccan food here are worth trying. We found this menu to have a lot of international influence and notice items on the menu from Italy, France, and more!

Café Des Épices Marrakech Medina
@mrsblinks
Embrace yourself for the best hummus of your life. This place is a must-visit for all the hummus lovers out there (and even if you’re not a fan, you’ll be a convert after trying it here). Cafe de Espices is located in the middle of the spice market in Medina. The cafe is small, with only a few tables, so be sure to get there early if you want a seat. We loved their specialty drinks and mocktails too. On hot days they have misters on their patio with beautiful views of the Medina.

L'Mida
مطعم الميدة
@mrsblinks
L’Mida is a rooftop restaurant that looks over the splendid views of the market with the Atlas Mountains in the backdrop. The restaurant is beautiful, with an outdoor seating area and Moroccan lanterns. The menu is extensive, with both traditional and international dishes. From salads to tajines to burgers, there’s something for everyone. I ordered the chicken skewers, and every bite was heavenly. They also have a kid’s meal, including mini burgers with vegetables and potatoes.

Le Jardin Restaurant Marrakech Medina
@mrsblinks
A 1960s Riad turned into a restaurant; Le Jardin is a must-visit in Marrakech. The restaurant is small, with an intimate setting and an outdoor seating area. The menu has a good mix of Moroccan and European dishes. The Tagine here is worth trying. The restaurant also has an impressive mocktails menu, which the kids love.
