Au Bout Du Quai — Mediterranean Restaurant Marseille Old Port

Your restaurant in Marseille, facing the Old Port

Au Bout Du Quai is much more than just a restaurant in Marseille. Located at 1 Avenue de Saint-Jean, steps from the Mucem and Fort Saint-Jean, our address offers a direct view of the Old Port boats. From our two terraces — 80 seats in total — you can enjoy the permanent spectacle of sailboats and traditional pointus returning to port, with the changing light of the Mediterranean as a backdrop.

Our chef works every day with the Old Port fishermen. The morning catches dictate the menu: royal sea bream, sea bass, red mullet, and depending on the season, sea urchins or violets. This direct relationship with local fishing guarantees a freshness that few fish restaurants in Marseille can offer. Here, the fish has never seen an industrial cold room — it goes from the boat to the plate in just a few hours.

Mediterranean cuisine rooted in Provencal traditions

The menu at Au Bout Du Quai changes with the seasons and the daily catch. Our dishes are rooted in Provencal and Mediterranean culinary traditions: Provence olive oil, fresh herbs from the market, vegetables from local producers. Every dish is entirely homemade, no exceptions. From starters to desserts, we cook everything on site with raw products.

Our specialties include whole grilled fish, seafood platters, traditional rock fish soup Marseille-style, and of course our traditional bouillabaisse prepared according to the rules of the art. For meat lovers, we also offer regional dishes made with products selected from local breeders.

A restaurant in the heart of Le Panier and the Old Port

Located in Marseille's 2nd arrondissement, between the Panier district and the Old Port, Au Bout Du Quai sits in the historic heart of the Phocaean city. Just a few minutes walk from La Canebiere, the Major Cathedral, the Mucem and Les Terrasses du Port, our restaurant is easily accessible by metro (Vieux-Port or Joliette stations) or on foot from Saint-Charles station.
