Pastry shops in Rabat: 9 places for a sweet treat in 2026

Viennoiseries, macarons, cakes for big occasions… 9 pastry shops in Rabat. Checked one by one.

Cornes de gazelle for Eid, a layer cake for a birthday, a Sunday morning croissant: in Rabat, every neighbourhood has its pastry shop. We kept ten places where sweet things are truly the heart of the business. Agdal for cake design and petits fours. Hay Riad and Mahaj Riad for tea rooms open late. Souissi for a French patisserie and the flagship shop of a brand born in 1985. Hassan for a bakery that says it has existed since 1928. And Qbibat for Moroccan sweets delivered to your door.

Most take orders: birthday cakes, platters for receptions, wedding pieces. Almost none display their prices online, so ask for a quote before deciding. The information comes from websites, Instagram accounts and the press, consulted in October 2026. Google ratings date from September 2026.

Updated October 2026.

How we chose these places

We started from the pastry shops listed on SAM.ma in Rabat. We read customer reviews, went through the menus, websites and Instagram accounts, and kept a single location per brand. This isn't a ranking: we wanted a range of styles and budgets.

Nothing is made up. If we couldn't check a price or opening hours, we left it out. Google ratings date from October 2026 and the photos come from the SAM.ma listings.

Cornes de gazelle for a family celebration? Maymana has been making them since 1985. Its founder, Naïma Berrada, was a teacher. She also wanted to give women jobs in the food trades, and according to Monocle, women still made up 70% of the team at the end of 2024. The flagship shop is in Souissi, on boulevard Mohammed VI. A second location is on avenue Attine, in Mahaj Riad. Monocle magazine cites three specialities: cornes de gazelle, chocolate-coated dates and honey sweets. The boxes shaped like a Fez tarbouche often go out as corporate gifts. The house also runs a bakery, a chocolate shop and catering for receptions. On Google, the Mahaj Riad shop was rated 3.9/5 in September 2026. A tip: for Eid or a wedding, order early.
