Cafe l'Ecomotive - Marseille

Good vegetarian food with fresh ingredients ???? great service and a girl talked in english and help us decide our order

Laid back hipster place where the food tastes fresh, healthy and very light. Pleasant surprise for a place right by the train station.

This easygoing hipster joint can be found across the street of the grand stairs at St Charles Train Station. I believe the restaurant also operates as a shared workspace. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Cafe l'Ecomotive reminds me of the restaurants on Avenues A & B lower east side New York City. I had the vegetable tart which was delicious. There were three salads served with the tart; a carrot and red cabbage salad, tabboleh and a leaf salad. All delicious. It's self service as you order and pay at the counter at the end of your meal you have to clear and separate your plates and rubbish. Meals are €10. each and beverage was €3.00.

Give it a try. I'm not always a fan of veggie-only places but this one makes very creative , tasty dishes for reasonable prices. We had the puff pastry with egg and the eggplant pie. Both were excellent.Very serve-yourself and a bit tight on space. You have to bus your own table and get your own silverware and water, etc.Urban: Center of town, right by train station.

We made a special trip back to this part of Marseilles just to eat lunch here. The food was all delicious, with vegan and vegetarian options. They were pretty busy when we were there. You might need to be patient for them to bring your food if you're at a table, and they had run out of several choices for the day by the time we left. Highly recommended particularly if you are looking for quality vegan options.
