Pizzeria La Bonne Mère

Marseille


Reservations are essential at this fantastic pizzeria in the lee of Basilique Notre-Dame de la Garde. La Bonne Mère uses only the freshest organic and imported ingredients and the creamiest mozzarella, strewing them on hand-spun dough that proves for 24 hours before crisping to perfection in its wood-fired oven.
