Healthy Food, Specialty Coffee & Three Mandala Experiences

Brunch | Lunch | Dinner | VEGAN FRIENDLY | Speciality Grade Coffee | Cakes

Discover Mandala Society in Marrakech and Essaouira: conscious & vegan friendly cuisine, specialty grade coffee and three unique locations shaped by the same warm Mandala spirit.

A Warm and Responsible Place

Mandala embodies harmony, balance, and conviviality - principles and a philosophy we strive to share through our cuisine and hospitality. Our dishes reflect the richness of our cultures, a culinary fusion where flavors interact, respond, and complement one another. At Mandala, we are committed to fair trade and artisanal cooking, believing in the power of organic food and quality beverages. Therefor we are also proud to say that Mandala was among the first places in Morocco to put specialty grade coffee at the heart of the experience.

the story of a meeting

A Shared Vision

Two enthusiasts from different backgrounds, brought together by a shared vision: Othman is Moroccan, Birta is Icelandic - united by common values and a deep appreciation for connection. Their paths first crossed in the deep cold of the North, and from that moment, they would never part. Reunited in Morocco, their journey and experiences strengthened their bond. Thus, the Mandala Family was born in Essaouira before expanding to Marrakech.

Welcome to Mandala Society

A place for healthy food, specialty coffee and warm moments shared around the table, that is what you can expect at Mandala. Known for its conscious cuisine, colourful plates, vegan-friendly and pescatarian options, Mandala brings together seasonal ingredients, generous brunches, homemade dishes and a relaxed Moroccan lifestyle.

โ€‹

Whether you come for a slow breakfast, a fresh lunch, a rooftop dinner, a good coffee or a simple moment with friends, Mandala is designed to feel welcoming, honest and full of life. Mandala Society is one spirit shared across three unique locations:

Essaouira

Our original social hub, rooted in the historic medina of Essaouira with a relaxed local energy, warm hospitality and the feeling of being at home.

A New Coffee Ritual at Mandala

Specialty Coffee, the Mandala Way

Coffee has always been a core part of the Mandala experience. At Mandala, coffee is more than a quick stop. It is a moment to slow down, enjoy the atmosphere and appreciate something made with care.

 

But since the summer of 2026, we are taking it even further. We now work with specialty grade coffee from LOMI Café, prepared with attention by our barista team. From your first morning cup to an afternoon coffee break or a drink after brunch, every coffee is part of the same Mandala spirit: honest, warm and full of simple pleasure. Mandala is a place for coffee moments, conversations and simple pleasures.

โ€‹

At Mandala, coffee is not an afterthought. With specialty grade beans, careful barista preparation and professional equipment, we aim to serve some of the finest coffee experiences in Marrakech and Essaouira.
