New cafés in Marseille

There’s more to Marseille than pastis! Coffee first arrived in Marseille from Alexandria in 1644, and the city then welcomed the first establishment dedicated to this beverage between the Vieux-Port and Belsunce. Since then, coffee establishments have flourished in Marseille, and here are the latest ones to try out to warm up when the Mistral blows.

Ben Mouture

Located at 34 rue du Petit Chantier, Ben Mouture is the dream of Benoit, a young coffee roaster, who opened this very attractive place. In his coffee shop, you can drink your coffee at the counter or take it away, and you can also decide to work from the café, on one of the comfortable armchairs with a good pastry to boot!
Benoit places great importance on the origins and producers of his coffees. Some come from Brazil, Colombia or Tanzania, and are offered in beans or ground to order.
If you have any doubts about how to prepare or store your coffee, don’t hesitate to ask Benoit, who will be delighted to give you his expert advice!

Au Comptoir du Livre

The new second-hand café/bookshop between the Plaine and Cours Julien! Its ultra-cozy interior, with antique furniture, decorations, books and bookcases everywhere, immediately immerses you in a friendly, relaxing atmosphere. You can curl up on a sofa with a cup of coffee or one of our homemade pastries, and why not take your next book home with you. Tuesday to Saturday, 8.30 a.m. to 8 p.m. and even a little later on weekends for those who want to enjoy an aperitif.

Café Lauca

Café Lauca is the story of Laurent, originally from Colombia, who returns to his native country in 2019. There, he discovered the art of coffee and the entire production process, and was hooked. In early 2021, he opened his roasting workshop in Aubagne. In August 2021, the adventure continues and Laurent opens his small store at 68 rue Grignan, where he sells his ground coffees and fair-trade beans, as well as equipment and coffee machines that he installs directly in your home. The store has only 6 indoor seats, so we recommend you come early to enjoy Laurent’s great coffees!

La Tisserie

Back to the 7th arrondissement, and more precisely to 142 rue d’Endoume, to tell you all about La Tisserie! It’s a specialty coffee roasting workshop, with precise traceability and fair remuneration for producers. La Tisserie is also committed to creating links between coffee consumers and producers, offering products made by ESATs (establishments and services providing assistance through work), showcasing local artisans via stands, and developing actions to promote equal opportunities. Their coffees are also available online, but we encourage you to drop by their pretty boutique to chat with them and why not enjoy a treat for breakfast or a snack!

Café la Muse

Open every day from 8am, Café la Muse completes the offer in the Notre-Dame du Mont district, allowing you to come and work, have a snack or a coffee all day long. In the evening, the place goes into tapas mode until 11pm for successful aperitifs. Bonus: a daily brunch menu from 8.30am to 3pm.

Maison des Nines

From Tuesday to Sunday, La Maison des Nines welcomes you for breakfast, coffee, lunch and, why not, a little shopping? This hybrid concept at the bottom of Rue d’Aubagne has been a great success since it opened a few years ago. From 10:30 a.m. on weekdays (and 9:30 a.m. at weekends), you can enjoy the friendly, cosy atmosphere. Plant-based milk, coffee from Brûlerie Moka, teas from Lorene MilleT, homemade cake bar… Enjoy your morning in Mc MorNine mode! A dedicated breakfast menu with hot buns and always 3-4 sweet options. Take the opportunity to discover Estelle’s expertise in the Perfume Bar, or the cutting-edge selection in the fashion and lifestyle area.

La Butinerie, café and flower shop

Discover La Butinerie, at 103 rue Sainte, a concept combining flowers and coffee. Imagine yourself with a cup of coffee in hand, savoring a gourmet pastry amid the aromas and colors of flowers. After your relaxing break, you can also treat yourself to one of the boutique’s magnificent bouquets. The perfect concept for this winter.
