Very berry at Occo, the Moroccan restaurant

With true Moroccan flair, Occo provides a welcome corner in London for those who love eating and drinking out but want to pretend they’re being healthy, as well.

Exotic cocktails come with seasonal berries and tropical fruits at Occo, the Moroccan Restaurant and Bar in Marylebone, London.

The restaurant is redolent of Tangiers, a city playground for eccentric millionaires, secret agents, artists and crooks, and a mecca for speculators and gamblers.

But don’t worry, that’s just the design scheme and the philosophy behind the food at Occo, which is authentic but contemporary Moroccan.

Best of all, there’s a 2 for 1 deal available on all cocktails daily from 5–Pam so Occo is the coolest destination for after work drinks during the credit crunch.

Here are a few of their ‘knock you dead’ specials:

Moore Bubbly
Fresh lime, elderflower cordial and fresh passion fruit, topped with champagne and served in a tall glass.
