L'Après M, the socially inclusive burger

L’Après M is a social fast-food restaurant that will open in 2022 in the former Mac Donald Saint-Barthélemy (14th arrondissement) by the former team, supported by associations, local residents and trade unions. The aim of Après M is to revitalise the northern neighbourhoods and help people learn to eat well. On the menu are burgers by Gerald Passedat, vegan dishes, salads, wraps and much more! All made with local, quality produce, we recommend it.

Holymelt, real Californian-style burgers

Holymelt are the smash burger experts! Their steaks are giant and have a unique, crispy flavour. Everything is made and minced on the premises, the buns are homemade using traditional red label flour and all the sauces are homemade too. Holymelt also offers a veggie alternative, and we’re all for it. So make the most of it and treat yourself by delivery or at 42 rue Mazenod (2e).

Moon Burger, a must at La Corderie

For the last 11 years, 27 boulevard de la Corderie (7th arrondissement) has been home to one of Marseille’s best burger joints – Moon Burger! Delicious bread, great burgers at low prices, crispy fries (try them with their homemade mayonnaise), you’re bound to find a sandwich to suit your taste at Moon. Everything is homemade in their laboratory, and they also offer a vegetarian version with halloumi! Open every day for lunch and dinner.

Flower Burger, the unmissable veggie restaurant in La Joliette

The first 100% vegan burger fast-food, Flower Burger offers colourful sandwiches every day for lunch and dinner in La Joliette (2nd arrondissement). Vegan steak, mushroom patty, avocado, tomato, lettuce, courgette or flower cheddar, everyone is convinced by the exquisite taste of these burgers!

La Folie du Burger, gourmet delights on rue de Rome

La Folie du Burger has proved its worth on rue de Rome (6th arrondissement) and is delighting Marseilles locals with its bun boulanger, its signature burgers (the Bengous or the selfish), and vegetarians will also find something to their liking with “le veggie”. And with their discovery boxes, you can even treat yourself to 3 mini sandwiches!

Cornbread, the best fried chicken on the Cours Ju'

At 32 rue des Trois Mages (6e), discover soul food, the culinary specialities of the Afro-American community at the Cornbread restaurant! A must-try is their Louisiana and Cajun fried chicken. The portions are generous and you can enjoy an atmosphere based around Afro-American hip-hop culture. A real slice of New York in the heart of Marseille! And for a burger? Try the famous Waffle Burger, where instead of the traditional brioche bun of a burger, you get a succulent waffle and their must-try fried chicken.
