The Kosher Guide to Casablanca: A Hotel with a Kosher Restaurant Inside
Casablanca remains one of Morocco's living Jewish communities, and one of the few cities in the world where you can sleep in a hotel and eat kosher without leaving the building: Le Palace d'Anfa runs Le Chandelier inside it, a kosher restaurant with half-board and Shabbat options.
The hotel and restaurant: Le Palace d'Anfa and Le Chandelier
Le Palace d'Anfa (rated 4.5, 5 stars), on Boulevard d'Anfa, is the simple choice for anyone who wants to sleep and eat kosher in one place. Inside it, Le Chandelier (4.5) is a meat Moroccan restaurant under glatt lamehadrin supervision of the Casablanca Beth Din, with half-board and Shabbat options - book the meals ahead.

Cercle de l'Union (4.6) is the old community restaurant downtown - tagine, couscous and Moroccan-Jewish cooking, under the Casablanca Beth Din. It has no clear street sign - ring the bell. AROMA Kosher Food & Bakery (4.4) is dairy, Cholov Yisrael - bakery, pizza and sushi on some days, good for a dairy lunch after a meat evening.
See all optionsThe synagogue and Chabad
Temple Beth-El (4.7), Moroccan Sephardi rite, is the community's main synagogue, not far from Cercle de l'Union - get in touch before coming to daven. Chabad Morocco (4.6) keeps a current restaurant list and arranges Shabbat meals - write before the trip, especially if you are not staying at Palace d'Anfa.
See all optionsThe Hassan II Mosque
The Hassan II Mosque (4.7), on the seafront, is the city's big attraction - a paid guided tour, worth booking ahead. No kosher food there, so eat at Le Chandelier or Cercle de l'Union before or after the visit.
See all optionsCasablanca is especially good for anyone who wants convenience: sleeping and eating kosher under one roof, without a taxi for every meal. Still check the kashrut certificate on the wall everywhere you go. Every address and exact hour is on BooKasher's full Casablanca destination page.
Stay in the kosher area of Casablanca
Casablanca does not have one obvious Jewish quarter. Chabad of Morocco (Chabad house listed on the site) is the anchor - book a hotel within walking distance of it rather than picking a random part of Casablanca.
To count as a booking, finish it in the same window after you click - it isn't saved for tomorrow.
