In Saint-Victor, Café de l’Abbaye is small in size but opens onto a big view of the Vieux-Port. A little terrace, counter service and apéro make it a Marseille classic where neighbouring tables soon start talking.

On September 26, So good MAIF Festival takes over La Plateforme with talks, workshops, comedy and concerts. A day for people who like discussing the world they want just as much as dancing in it.

A working urban farm built on a former wasteland in the 12th, with a canteen, a rooftop and a pétanque pitch. You don't visit it, you give it a hand, and in August that's Wednesdays and Friday evenings.

A neighbourhood boulodrome above the Théâtre Silvain, tucked under a pine. Open to everyone, no membership, a bite at lunch. If your future crush is into pétanque, that's already something.

You know Les Goudes. You may have been once and not been back since. That is exactly why you should go again.

Cocktail bar on tap with sharing plates, right next to the Catalans beach. Cool vibe, young team, cocktails on tap and a sea view that changes everything: the Marseille address to try this spring.

The iodine, the fresh white wine and the Endoume sun. Here, forget the formalities: you choose your fish at the counter, it ends up on the grill, and you end up on the terrace. Raw, blue, Marseille to the letter.
