A Café to Work and Study in Gueliz, Marrakech

In many cafés, an open laptop and a pile of revision notes are not welcome. At Kuma Marrakech, in Gueliz, it's the opposite: free high-speed Wi-Fi, plenty of power outlets, and a room that's open from 10am, with no afternoon break, where you can work in peace all day long.

Kuma Marrakech (12 Rue Khalid Ben El Oualid, Gueliz) is a café-restaurant where you can work and study: free high-speed Wi-Fi, plenty of power outlets, open Tuesday to Sunday from 10am with no afternoon break. During the day, the whole room is non-smoking. The only house rule: order something roughly every two hours. Alcohol-free, 100% halal, a 2-minute walk from WLC Marrakech and 14 minutes from the Faculty of Medicine.

Here, you're allowed to study.

What you'll find for working at Kuma

Free high-speed Wi-Fi

A high-speed connection, free for every customer. Enough to follow an online class, send a file or hand in an assignment without hunting for a signal.

Power outlets, lots of them

There are plenty of power outlets around the room. No need to keep an eye on your laptop or phone battery during a long session.

Open from 10am, non-stop

Kuma opens at 10am Tuesday to Sunday, weekends included, and doesn't close in the afternoon: the whole day is yours, in a calm room.

The right to study

Some cafés put up "no studying" signs. We made the opposite choice: notes, laptops and group revision sessions are all welcome.

One simple house rule

We only ask one thing: order something roughly every two hours. A tea, a juice, a crepe, whatever you fancy.

That's what lets us keep the room open to people who study, and keep saying yes. On your own or in a group, make yourself at home.

A quiet café to study: come during the day

During the day, the mood is calm and the whole room is non-smoking: the right time to focus on a thesis, an exam or a language. In the evening, Kuma becomes the restaurant where people come for dinner.

Eating and drinking while you work

Brunches from 10am, toasts, the KUMA Burger, crepes, waffles and homemade desserts. To drink: coffee, matcha, mint tea, fresh juices and house mocktails.

A student deal is coming soon: follow us on Instagram to hear about it first. The menu is online without prices; prices are given on site and on WhatsApp.

Getting here
