Marseille's ice cream shops to try!

Loulou Monsieur Glace is the new kid on the block in Malmousque! 100% French buffalo milk ice creams (from Aveyron), with no added fat, artificial flavouring or colouring. The toppings are made, processed and roasted in l’Estaque. The minimalist setting designed by Panela Architecte and Weekender will win you over straight away, making it an unmissable stop-off before or after the beach for a frosty break!

Located in the district Panier just a stone’s throw ‘Vieux-Port’ (Old port), Vanille Noire offers traditional ice creams to be enjoyed without moderation. Nicolas, the founder, artisan ice-cream maker and sorbet enthusiast, selects his own raw materials and prepares his own fruit purées before making his ice creams in his laboratory/store. His speciality is black vanilla, a charcoal-coloured ice cream that’s sure to catch the eye. He also offers original flavours such as ginger/curcuma, pineapple/fennel, cornflake, panettone/grappa and pastis. The ice creams can be enjoyed on the terrace or taken home. Don’t hesitate to discover this address on rue Caisserie or place de Lorette!

If you want to enjoy an organic ice cream in the Vieux-Port area, the Métropole is the place to go. The Glacier Bio Le Métropole offers 51 flavours of Terre Adélice organic ice creams and sorbets, including a whole range from the south: pastis, lavender, lemon-basil, verbena, green anise, apricot, white peach… The establishment also boasts a beautiful interior entirely redesigned by Sophie Ferjani, the famous interior designer.
