They\u2019re lively places where people come to chill, chat, or even get some work done. There\u2019s always a good reason to drop by a caf\u00e9: a morning coffee alone, tea-time with friends, soaking up the sun on a terrace, or for an <em>ap\u00e9ro <\/em>(early evening drink)<em> <\/em>which stretches into the night. Marseille\u2019s caf\u00e9s are a lifeblood of the city. And whatever mood you\u2019re in, there\u2019s always a caf\u00e9 to suit it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you like spectacular views, head to <strong>Le Caf\u00e9 de l\u2019Abbaye<\/strong> (3 Rue d\u2019Endoume). With its terrace overlooking the Vieux-Port, it\u2019s a picture-perfect spot to unwind. Grab a coffee or drink at the end of the day as the sun sets over the boats and set the world to rights with your friends.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or what about a stylish caf\u00e9 with a green and arty touch? Check out <strong>Mostera <\/strong>(books, plants and coffee, 84 rue de Lodi), a peaceful haven where you can read, work, or just relax among the plants. It\u2019s an elegant oasis with good coffee.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In need of sun and a big terrace? Next stop, a bakery at La Plaine: <strong>Gourmandises by Nico<\/strong> (Place Jean Jaur\u00e8s) which offers focaccia, praline brioche or chicken and avocado sandwiches on their olive oil-infused bread. Sip your coffee in the morning sun and enjoy the atmosphere of La Plaine!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just next door, there\u2019s <strong>Mon Caf\u00e9<\/strong>, a friendly hangout that\u2019s perfect for a coffee break or a casual meet-up. In fact, all the caf\u00e9s on La Plaine are full of character and a mix of people, with the terraces like open-air stages where Marseille life unfolds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In R\u00e9form\u00e9s, you can head to <strong>l\u2019Eclectique <\/strong>(30 cours Joseph Thierry) and take your time over a coffee in the sun or an <em>ap\u00e9ro<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a no-frills, local-style caf\u00e9, try <strong>O\u2019Thierry<\/strong> (also on Cours Joseph Thierry). It\u2019s a simple, welcoming spot where regulars can be seen chatting away.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a great cafe-restaurant a bit off the beaten track, make for <strong>Golda <\/strong>(All\u00e9e L\u00e9on Gambetta). It\u2019s a little gem of a place, with delicious dishes, well-crafted drinks and a relaxed atmosphere, just a stone\u2019s throw from the city centre.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If hanging out around Cours Julien is more your thing, you\u2019ll be spoilt for choice: there are many colourful, lively, creative caf\u00e9s with a bit of a hipster vibe. Coming here is as much about having a coffee as soaking up inspiration.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Craving an afternoon treat? Stop off at <strong>Minoofi<\/strong> (rue Paradis) which has excellent cakes and drinks, or at <strong>Te Miti<\/strong>, a coffee shop with exquisite speciality brews and cookies to die for!&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Marseille, caf\u00e9s aren\u2019t just for grabbing a quick espresso.
