Really great!

Very cozy space with a very nice owner and great food!
I ate the Carbonara and it was really it. It has the perfect size and was savoury and delicious. The pickled onions were are great touch.

Pros: Food, Service, Atmosphere

A Marseille must!

We visited John Silvers on the second and third day of our Marseille trip, for lunch. We had the kebab which was great! The chips that came with it were the best I’ve had in a really long time (tasty, homemade and fresh) and the kebab itself was really nice/stuffed full!

Whilst we were there the owner was running the place (making the food, drinks, serving etc) - he was really lovely and welcoming. Great service, very attentive and friendly. He was so on the ball and organised.

A small place but very clean (including the toilets). Would certainly recommmend anyone who is visiting Marseille to stop by.

Pros: Great, fresh, tasty food, Attentive service , Clean

Cons: None

Cute Café/Bistro

Cute little Café/Bistro near the old port.
Had a delicious breakfast toast and a slice of cake. The people are friendly and service was fast. Not too many tables to sit at, but when I was there it wasn't too busy.

John silver

Es ist ein voll Veganes Restaurant welches eine kleine Karte hat und schön Aussieht. Jedoch ist der Chef etwas aufdringlich und wollte mir etwas andrehen was ich nicht wollte. Das Essen war Okey.

Frais et efficace

On a aimé le taboulé et le jus mix fruits, mais le meilleur ce sont les desserts ! Légers et gourmands, tout est bon!

Pros: Ambiance , Friendly staff, Food

Cons: Pas d’airco

Komplett vegan und super freundlich

Sehr schöner kleiner Laden mit einer kleinen Speisekarte. Leider waren die Gerichte geschmacklich eher fade. Lecker war der Pistazien-Kuchen zum Nachtisch.

Pros: Sehr freundliches Personal, Leckere Desserts, Viele glutenfreie Optionen

Cons: Recht teuer für das Gebotene, Geschmacklich nicht so die Wucht

Die Bedienung war überaus nett und das Restaurant sehr gemütlich.
Tolles Erlebnis!

Nice fully vegan restraunt

We had coffee, unfortunately I didn't like the oat milk so much as it had a very strong taste. And also we had toast with vegan meat substitute, it was great. But it didn't have many other options for breakfast. The owner was very welcoming and friendly. It was wonderful to see a fully vegan restaurant in Marseilles.

Desserts délicieux

On est venus à 3 pour les desserts et même si ça n'est pas trop possible normalement on a été servis. Ils étaient très réussis. Le patron est très sympa et nous a indiqué des lieux à voir et d'autres restos végé.

Great food, great vibes, and great service. Me & my partner shared 2 mains and a dessert, and a refreshing matcha latte. Vegan haven in Marseille!

An absolute gem in Marseille!

John Silver was hands down one of the best vegan experiences I've had so far. The food is outstanding – fresh, flavorful, and made with real care. You can tell immediately that the people running this place are truly passionate about what they do.

What made the visit even more special was the atmosphere. The team is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and full of positive energy. It’s rare to find a place where you feel so at home while also being amazed by the food.

If you're in Marseille and love plant-based cuisine (or just great food in general), don't miss this spot. It’s the kind of place that stays with you.

Newly opened vegan restaurant

We had lunch here yesterday. Only opened for 2 weeks. It’s one street back from the Main Street. I had the bao burger with coleslaw, my husband had focaccia with pesto, tomatoes, ricotta and pastrami. Both dishes looked great and they both tasted amazing, flavours were really good. We also had oat milk lattes, best coffee we have had for a long time! Would definitely recommend

Pros: Food was amazing, Staff friendly and helpful , Nice place to relax away from the busy main area

Cons: Doesn’t have a lot of tables
