La Caravelle

For the former restaurant in New York City, see La Caravelle (New York).

La Caravelle is a restaurant and jazz venue in Marseille, France, situated on the first floor of the Hotel Belle Vue. According to The Daily Telegraph it has "retained atmospheric pre-war elements – it was already a jazz bar in the 1930s – and boasts a tiny terrace affording cracking views over the Vieux Port. The atmosphere is part bodega, part maritime."[1] Live jazz is performed on Wednesdays and Fridays from October through to May.

In 2011 the restaurant was described by The Guardian: "The Caravelle is no simple bar or restaurant; it is a Marseille institution."[2]
