Joya
The beachfront suburb of Aïn Diab is the place to go for late night drinking and dancing in Casa. However, hanging out with Casablanca's beautiful people for a night on the town doesn't come cheap. Expect to pay at least around DH100 to get in and as much again for drinks. Heavy-set bouncers guard the doors and practise tough crowd control - if you don't look the part you won't be getting in. Joya is a popular haunt.

La Petite Roche
With stunning views across to the Hassan II Mosque, this is another favourite Casa hangout. Littered with pillows thrown across low-level seating and lit by an army of candles, this place has a laid-back but exotic atmosphere. The clientele is not quite as self-consciously cool, or as unruly, as at La Bodéga and the restaurant downstairs serves good tapas, paella and seafood.

Caesar
Other than Aïn Diab the only real options are the clubs at the large international hotels. They're pretty predictable places with little atmosphere but they attract plenty of business people and tourists. Prostitutes work all of the clubs, men are always expected to pay for the drinks and women shouldn't expect hassle-free drinking anywhere.

Le Trica
This bar-lounge, set over two levels with brick walls and 1960s furniture, is the place to feel the beat of the new Morocco. The atmosphere is hot and trendy at night, stirred by the techno beat and a flow of beer and mojitos (rum cocktails), but things are a lot calmer at lunch.

Petit Poucet
A die-hard relic of 1920s France, this strictly male-only bar was where Saint-Exupéry, the French author and aviator, used to spend time between mail flights across the Sahara. Today, the bar is low-key but is an authentic slice of old-time Casa life.

La Bodéga
Hip, happening and loved by a mixed-aged group of Casablanca’s finest, La Bodega is essentially a tapas bar where the music (every-thing from Salsa to Arabic pop) is loud and the Rioja (Spanish wine) flows freely. It’s a fun place with a lively atmosphere and a packed dance floor after 10pm.
