La Caravelle - Marseille 2e Arrondissement

if you're with friend, or not, just lay down the terrasse and enjoy the old port of marseille with a drink

The cafe/bar is located on the first floor, facing the Vieux Port, which is very nice. Good drinks selection, but not food. There was only like two food selections and there are bad. The inside can be quite packed.

We visited specifically for the range of cocktails advertised on the menu outside however we were disappointed to discover once seated that for some reason they weren't serving cocktails. Undeterred we stayed for food with wine instead, a good decision. There isn't a huge amount of choice, unlike some of the other local restaurants, but it's a small place and the selection of dishes was excellent. We had a salad (quite a large portion) and the lasagne and both were delicious. I also recommend the creme brulee! Not overly expensive and a lovely atmosphere.

La Caravelle was our first stop in Marseille upon arrival in the evening in November. The bar was a casual and intimate atmosphere with seating for around 50 people plus room for live entertainment. We listened to jazz piano while enjoying great drinks (cocktails, wine, beer) and tapas. At night, the bar does not serve dinner, only a small selection of tapas (approximately 6 items plus one daily special). We were given free tapas when we sat down (toasted potatoes, beet salad, tomatoes with mozzarella cheese, zucchini salad) and ordered a charcuterie plate and cheese plate. It was a nice break from the big meals we have been eating while traveling though France. I would very highly recommend because of presentation of the food was simple and beautiful and although the restaurant was busy, the service was great. This restaurant receives a 5-star review for the atmosphere, presentation, service (the waiters spoke excellent English and were very attentive), and price (60 euro for 4 drinks and 2 tapas orders).

Amazing place for drinks with a view, live music and quirky decor. Sit back and relax with a drink soak up the tunes and chill out.

Enjoyed having a glass of wine sitting on the bar's balcony as often as I could and as there was space (the balcony is tiny and has only a few tables)! View over the port from the balcony!

The design inside is very good with a very specific atmosphereThe outseide is a small balcony and it is hard to find a place. additionally there is not a lot of space when seatedThe view from inside outside is very beautiful (view on the vieux port)Price is high for the dring (10€ a caipirinha)Food is good but is more to share with friends or his loveI am very balanced about this place but I will still go there, very strange...so try it yourself definitely

Had a good time there, nice music and very cool view on the Harbour, from the terrasse. Loved the Sunset...
