Delicious coffee and food. I tend to go for the Moroccan lamb salad with feta and avo. It is to die for. Amazing! And sometimes just a coffee and fresh baklava is perfect.
I’m new to venturing into the city, had lunch at Ben’s Alibi and oh my it was amazing! Moroccan chicken skewer special! Will definitely be returning for more!
I was on Jury duty, called if for a coffee in the morning and it was so lovely. Finished early for the day so decided to go back for a lite lunch. The honey fetta was amazing, just the right size. The staff are so friendly. Next time I am in the city I will make my way back there.

Was here when on a business trip. Seemed like a busy lunch place. Loved the name of the restaurant and the owner is real friendly and funny. Comes to all the tables to chit chat and explain any doubts on the menu items. All the food is presented quite beautifully on traditional Moroccan dishes and the selection of drinks they have here is really good as well. The food taste can improve I think. It wasn't anything extraordinary but the prices are reasonable and you get what you pay for. Might go here just for the atmosphere.
I wasn't expecting huge things from this place – average name, average location, and we were part of the work rush. How wrong I was. The food was absolutely cracking. My chicken burger was up there with the best I've had in the city, while a couple of my colleagues fell into an induced lamb coma. Matching the bites was the service, with main man, Ben, giving us plenty of laughs, and the rest of the wait team kindly looking after a few curveball dietary requirements. Well worth an extended lunch break.
Bens alibi has great flavours and captures the essence of Mediterranean food. Love the Moroccan chicken salad, the lamb burger is great and the specials are always delicious. Been many times for coffee, and never disappointed.
Posing as a standard office cafe in the legal district, it actually has Moroccan food, or at least Moroccan-influenced food like pizzas, rolls, burgers and salads. They're served on attractive Moroccan plates and generally have a lot of great flavour - at least in the sauces that come with things. The salads are particularly tasty and fairly large. The coffee and Moroccan tea is also good. The prices seem a little high but there's no doubt the food's good.
The food here is decent - my favourite is the Moroccan lamb salad - but the service needs drastic improvement. Our table was served warm beer, warm white wine and when we requested water for the table, we received 2 glasses of water (for a table of 8). It's not pleasant having to ask repeatedly for something that should be either a given or offered, let alone something that was specifically requested! Our meals all came out on time though, and the place is reasonably priced. It's usually busy so I suggest making a reservation ahead of time.
Fantastic service, food and prices!. The food was superb; generous in serving size and priced at some serious value for money. We ordered the chicken, honey sandwich and the lasagne. They were both so flavorsome and presented well (the honey in the sandwich was just mindblowingly good. Who knew honey and grilled chicken are so tantalisingly good together?). Not only that, the cafe itself (decor and plates) are nice and the service is really friendly. Can't find a fault at all.
Best salads!. Food is always fantastic. Serving staff consistently pleasant.
Only reservation - sometimes serving time can be a little slow.
