A restaurant for groups in Marseille
Birthday, family meal, dinner with friends or team lunch: Le Caribou welcomes your tables in the heart of the Vieux-Port. A large brasserie dining room, a terrace under the pergola and generous food to share — the ideal setting to bring everyone together.
Hosting a group
An address made for big tables
Gathering ten, fifteen or twenty guests in a city-centre restaurant is often a headache. At Le Caribou, on place Thiars, welcoming groups is second nature: the brasserie dining room lays out in large tables, the terrace extends the meal in the sun and the team paces the service to the rhythm of your moment.
Family reunions, groups of friends, afterworks or team meals: everyone finds their place around food made to share, without anyone dashing across town. One address, one table, everyone together — by the Vieux-Port.
The spirit of the house
Conviviality on a grand scale
A good group meal plays out as much in the mood as on the plate. Under the pergola of place Thiars, you toast at the apéro, share the dishes and let the evening stretch out facing the quays — the address where big tables feel at home.

Apéro on the terrace, sharing plates and a cocktail bar open late: the ideal setting to linger on the Vieux-Port without watching the clock.
Team meals & afterworks
An efficient team lunch or a relaxed afterwork steps from the city-centre offices: paced service and an address that is easy for everyone to find.
Food to share
Generous dishes, made to be shared
At Le Caribou we cook an honest, well-kept brasserie: fresh produce, hearty plates and fine cuts to pass around the table. House burgers, fish, slow-cooked meats and big salads — enough to satisfy hearty appetites and lighter cravings alike.
For a group, sharing changes everything: you pick, you taste, you pass the dishes around. The team advises you on what works best in numbers and adapts the flow so the meal stays smooth, from the first drink to coffee.
