A short walkfrom Port-Miou
Le Bistrot de Nino welcomes you at 1 Quai Jean-Jacques Barthélemy, on the port of Cassis, just minutes from the entrance to the Port-Miou calanque. The first of the calanques from the village, Port-Miou is easily reached on foot from the harbour.
Our restaurant thus becomes a natural stop before setting off to walk or on your return. You leave the car near the village, reach the trail, then come back to sit facing the sea, on the harbour without ever having to get back on the road.
After the walk
Fresh fishback from the calanques
After the effort of the walk, it's time for Mediterranean cuisine and fresh fish. Faithful to its tradition since 1962, the house presents the whole fish then fillets it in front of you at the table, a gesture that's part of the experience.
Depending on the day's catch, Mediterranean fish, shellfish, crustaceans and generous Provençal dishes carry on the spirit of the calanque around a plate that smells of the sea.
The largest terrace in Cassis
Settle facing the sea,back from Port-Miou
Back from Port-Miou, our terrace is the ideal place to settle. The largest terrace in Cassis, shaded and open onto the harbour and the sea, seats 80 to 100 guests throughout the day.
You sit down for a quiet lunch, a drink in the sun or a dinner facing the boats, your legs still full of the salt of the calanque. Our four-legged friends are also welcome, for those coming back from a walk with their dog.
