Marseille's Go-To Beer Bar on Cours d'Estienne d'Orves
Les BerThoM is the kind of bar you wish every neighborhood had. Tucked onto the Cours d'Estienne d'Orves just two minutes from the Vieux-Port, it's a beer bar that takes its brews seriously without taking itself too seriously. The selection spans French and European craft beers — think cherry beers, apple beers, and plenty of taps you won't find elsewhere in Marseille. The staff are genuinely knowledgeable and happy to steer you toward something that matches your taste, whether you're a casual sipper or a hardcore hophead. One reviewer raved about the "bières sensationnelles" including a gluten-free option on tap, which is a rare find.
The atmosphere is what keeps people coming back. It's relaxed, unpretentious, and draws a loyal local crowd — the kind of place where you sit on the terrace, order a couple of tapas, and let the evening stretch out. TripAdvisor reviewers call it a bar that's becoming "un incontournable de Marseille," praising the good vibe and friendly servers. There are occasional live concerts too, which adds to the appeal without turning it into a full-on music venue.
Is it the most glamorous spot in the city? No, and that's the point. Les BerThoM trades on authenticity and quality rather than flash. If you want a genuine Marseille beer experience — a solid pint, good company, and zero attitude — this is your spot. Just don't be surprised if "one drink" turns into three.
