At lunchtime, Le Bistrot de Nino welcomes you on the Cassis quay for a meal facing the sea. Mediterranean cuisine, fresh fish and the lively harbour atmosphere: you settle in unhurried, between a walk in the calanques and a pause in the sun.
Whether you arrive from the village, the calanques path or a morning on the water, the terrace is open for the lunch service. Whole fish is presented then filleted in front of you, at the table — the gesture that has built our reputation since 1962.
