There are a surprisingly large quantity of Irish pubs in Marseille. I think we walked by at least…read more2-3 others on the same strip before settling in at "Le Shamrock" for a pre-dinner drink. If you don't like fighting a crowd, I recommend showing up to the waterfront bars in Marseille on a Wednesday night in October! :) Fall is an "off-season" in Marseille, so the entire patio of tables (probably 150 seats) was basically empty, excepting our group. Staff is friendly and generally pretty quick (again, perhaps due to non-existent crowds). There's a full bar drink selection, including my most recent great discovery: peach syrup mixed with light beer (don't knock it until you have tried it). Huge plus in that they take credit cards (not a given in Marseille), but pretty big minus in that they generally won't keep a tab. Free olives and sour cream and onion chips located near the door! They're self-serve - grab a bowl (or several) and bring them to your table.

What an authentic Irish Pub - Marseilles France! I went there ummm, maybe a lil too often on my…read morerecent trip to Marseilles. The Guiness was as good as you get in Dublin or elsewhere in Ireland. The bartender and the rest of the team was very nice and helpful - something you dont often see in an Irish Pub - no matter where in the world its located. Also, the burgers etc were pretty darn good. I'd go back AND I didnt think Id ever say that about an Irish Pub. :)

C'est sans doute le pub le plus authentique de Marseille et j'y ai toujours passé un bon moment, que ce soit pour une soirée entre amis, un match de rugby ou une pinte par une calme après-midi d'hiver près de la cheminée. Les prix sont raisonnables et le service agréable. En plus c'est ouvert le dimanche ce qui est plutôt rare dans le quartier. J'espère qu'il sera encore là dans 15 ans !

This bar is set right next to the port - so good views and great people watching but for dining there are dozens of other places of varying degrees of expense to get a good meal (and still keep drinking).

This place is sooo soo good. It is located right by the port so you get amazing views. Plus, it…read moreisn't too crowded because it is located on the second floor of this hotel. This place isn't one of those touristy places where they serve you bad food. They take their food quality really seriously here. You can tell based off of what you get. The wait staff is pretty nice although service is really slow. I suppose it is not the American way where they push you out. Instead, they take your time so you can enjoy your food. For parents of little ones though, I would have appreciated some more expediency. The food was sooooo good. They serve typical Provincal food. We got their seafood platter. The freshly made garlic mayo complimented the food perfectly. I also got the shrimp and rice. This was yummy but not as good as the seafood platter. The next day we got grilled octopus with rice. The octopus was perfectly grilled. For high quality food, the price point isn't too bad. I think it is on the more affordable end.

There was also a live pianist playing American standards. We got some fantastic cocktails, the "clover club" and "from Trinidad." We also sat at the bar and ordered apps. I speak a little bit of French and the servers were patient with us which I appreciate.

Here you will not find the mega brewery BS, or the megabrewery disguised as a craft brewery, no 16, Kronenbourg, Heine@#$en (won't pronounce it) or any crap like that. Really good brews, cools ambiance, polite bartenders, great terrace, no more expensive than anywhere else, often live music, big mixed plates of cheese/vegetables/cold cuts.

The buildings are authentic style. If you know history of marseille it was heavily bombed during WWII as the nazi's used it as a major supply port. Thee service was so personal explaining the different beers, stouts etc. their Guinness is said to be the best. Don't be shocked at seeing cassock wearing priest enjoying a pint or two. The French are so relaxed. A group of shoulders patrolling the area. We're really nice sorry no pictures battery was low on my phone. I shouldn't have been playing games on it.

I don't know if there was any rum in it. But it didn't taste fresh or minty. And the raspberry seemed like fake syrup and not like real fruit at all. Surprisingly France makes a great mojitos so I expected more than the syrup ice mess that I had for 9€. Service was slow too and they're very eager to have u pay as soon as u get ur items.
