Best addresses in Montredon

An old restaurant transformed into a trendy (perhaps too trendy?) tapas bar where you can enjoy your drinks with your feet in the sand. To fully enjoy it, it's best to go early as it gets crowded later on.

Le Cabanon de Paulette

Boulevard des Baigneurs, 13008

Le Bar des Amis is a great spot to enjoy a drink while tasting some platters and panisse fries. At lunchtime, they offer delicious meals to eat in or take away, such as the famous "pan bagna". The clientele is diverse and the atmosphere is friendly, as everyone there is a friend.

Le Bar des Amis

23 avenue de la Pointe Rouge, 13008

When the nice weather comes back, it's good to stop at the large terrace of this pub at the exit of Les Goudes. Happy hour starts at 6 pm.

20000 lieux sous la Bière

12 bd Alexandre Delabre

When the weather gets warm, it's great to stop on the large terrace of this pub at the exit of Les Goudes. Happy hour starts at 6pm.

It's so nice in the evening to have a drink here in the summer. It's much quieter than Chez Paulette! Check their website, they collaborate with restaurants (like Le Vivier last summer) to liven up the kitchens of this beautiful Marseille mansion

Château Beaupin

37 avenue du Beau Pin, 13008

At the water's edge, on the small port of Montredon. The place is peaceful, the gratin mussels are amazing, the rest...

Au Bord de l'eau

15 rue des Arapèdes, 13008

A good neighborhood pizzeria with a small terrace, just at the entrance of La Madrague, a 10-minute walk from the apartment.

Le Madraguin

202 av. de la Madrague de Montredon, 13008

A beautiful place to relax after a walk to Marseilleveyre and have a drink or an ice cream. It's easy to linger here in the evening over a pizza (in the brasserie/pizzeria section) or a very good local fish (in the chic restaurant section).

La Grotte de Callelongue

Calanque de Callelongue, 13008

A fashion designer running a concept store that sells fashion items, gifts, home decor, and also includes a restaurant.

La Cantine de Lynn

3 rue Audemar Tibido, 13008

At Madrague de Montredon, just a few minutes walk from the apartment, there is a good seafood restaurant, well-known and very classic. It is a safe bet for the neighborhood.

Chez Aldo

28 rue Audemar Tibido, 13008

It takes some effort to have lunch at Chez le Belge, but it's really nice to arrive and enjoy a fresh salad with your feet in the sand, facing the sea, in this paradise-like beach hut setting. No electricity means no credit cards, so bring cash. No reservations either (arrive early). Check the opening days on their Facebook page.

Chez le Belge

Calanque de Marseilleveyre, 13008

Seafood and fish are served at this restaurant overlooking the small port of l'Escalette. The terrace is superb!

Le Petit Port

Port de l'Escalette, chemin des Goudes, 13008

People keep asking me for addresses to eat a good authentic bouillabaisse, here is one! Make sure to reserve!

L'Esplaï du Bar des Goudes

28 rue Désiré Pelaprat, 13008

Another great address in Les Goudes that highlights seafood products. The most modern of the three addresses in Les Goudes.

La Marine des Goudes

16 rue Désiré Pelaprat, 13008

More fish, still fish, and yes, you are in Les Goudes, a fishing village! Another good address for bouillabaisse. Some tables set up on the port when the weather is nice.

Chez Paul

35 rue Désiré Pelaprat, 13008

The trendy spot in Les Goudes for the Parisians visiting Marseille, according to locals. Located in the former diving school (hence the name), it's beautiful, expensive, and hipster. For enthusiasts."

Tuba

2 bd Alexandre Delabre, 13008

A nice little restaurant with a shaded garden where it's nice to have lunch in the summer. Right next to the beach of Pointe Rouge.

Le P'tit Jardin

12 avenue des Goumiers, 13008

This restaurant is vegetarian and vegan, and has one of the most beautiful views of Marseille.

V&V

151 av. Joseph Vidal, 13008

Small neighborhood bakery, 1 minute from the apartment. Delphine and Michel serve good bread, pastries, and excellent quiches. Perfect for an impromptu lunch on the beach. Closed on Wednesdays.

La Panière de la Grotte

65 boulevard de la Grotte Rolland, 13008

Very good bread and pastries to die for, like everything else.

L'art de la Viennoiserie

67 avenue de Montredon, 13008

The pains au chocolate there are delicious, and not just them. The other nearby bakery, on Avenue de Montredon.

Campaillette

70 avenue de Montredon 13008

Cheese and wine cellar

Superb selection!

Raisin Crème

16 avenue des Goumiers, 13008

A fish shop/restaurant (although I never quite understood when one could eat there). The catch is partly local (the fishmonger's father-in-law is a fisherman). Seafood platters to enjoy on the Sablettes beach at sunset.

Poissonnerie Montredon

79 avenue de la Madrague de Montredon, 13008

A large butcher shop with plenty of choices, moderate prices, and local specialties such as "alouettes sans tête" (a regional dish made of rolled veal or beef stuffed with bacon, herbs, and vegetables).

Boucherie de la Pointe Rouge

83 avenue de la Pointe Rouge, 13008

A master butcher with a small organic fruit and vegetable section and fine grocery store. Expensive but very good.

Boucherie Chez Mère Grand

53 avenue de Montredon, 13008

If you're looking for something to take away for an easy meal at the apartment or on the beach, consider this rotisserie. They also have very good gnocchi with meat juice.

Rôtisserie O French Coq

70 avenue de la Madrague de Montredon, 13008

Fashion designer and curator of small objects that will remind you of your stay in Marseille.
