About Al Farid - St Albans
Moroccan restaurant & Meze bar: Umar ibn 'Al Farid' was an Arab poet; his poetry is entirely Sufic and he was esteemed as the greatest mystic poet of the Arabs!

The menu comprises of both hot and cold dishes and offers a wealth of colour, flavour, texture and aroma. An attribute of Moroccan food is the fact that it is very healthy as well as tasty.20% off entire menu
