This is undoubtedly the best panoramic view of Marrakech's iconic Jemaa al-Fnaa square. You don't come here for the food or the service, you come here for the location. Visitors must buy an overpriced drink to access the terrace, which will set you back two to three euros. However, it's absolutely worth it. The best time to visit Le Grand Balcon du Café Glacier is at sunset as the vendors begin setting up their food stalls and smoke begins wafting through the air. If you want the best seat in the house, you'll have to arrive at least an hour or two beforehand to ensure that you get a good table. Otherwise, you'll be left standing and staring longingly at those who arrived before you.
