Le Vieux Panier

This place is awesome. It’s a great pizza place located in a sort of courtyard where people eating at a number of restaurants can eat outside. It’s in Le Panier, my favorite part of Marseille, and we came here twice because it’s conveniently located and the pizza is delicious. Our server had a great sense of humor, and we got by speaking a mix of French and English. My husband had a ham and cheese pizza on both days that we came here; I had an eggplant parm pizza on the first day, and a margherita pizza on the second day. The crust is thin and the toppings are heavy, so you have to eat with a fork and knife, as sacrilegious as it might feel. Great choice of toppings, great prices, great service– definitely come here, you’ll leave full and happy. As a bonus, on weekends, some great performers seem to come specifically to this area to play music and do some crazy acrobatics.
