Perched on a cliff overlooking the Strait of Gibraltar, Café Hafa is a Tangier institution that has been serving mint tea since the 1920s. Its terraced gardens offer sweeping views of the Mediterranean and, on clear days, the Spanish coast. The café's worn-in tables and blue-and-white tiles evoke a bohemian spirit that once attracted writers and artists like Paul Bowles and the Rolling Stones. Visitors sip sweet mint tea while watching the waves and ferries pass below.
