Marina Caffe

Happened to come across this place while walking in Cannes while in port for a cruise. The 18 € pre fixe menu caught my eye with the idea of Nutella crepes for dessert sealing the deal.
Overall food was good but probably average. Ordered the antipasti salad to start and mussels and fries for the main course. Mussels and fries seem to be a local staple among restaurants and a friend who visited the city previously suggested it as well. Granted I’m not a mussels connoisseur, but the mussels seemed to lack a little flavor and would have been better in a sauce as opposed to being just steamed, but maybe that’s just a limitation of the pre fix menu. No complaints about the quantity and it took a while to open and ear them all. The crêpe was delicious and a good end to the meal. How can you go wrong with crepes in France?
Service was average. Not fast but not slow. Took a while to get the check though. Waitress spoke enough English to get by. WiFi available in the restaurant but even though they gave me the password was never able to connect to it even though I could see the network.

Don’t bother. We knew it wasn’t going to be good, and it did live up to that. Over cooked and flavourless is the deal here. The cod was dry and crispier than a fish and chip. Seafood and pasta were over cooked. Service was super slow. Was thinking of where to go and actually eat while trying to eat our meal here.

Dry Tuna, Cold Hands
So I came here with my friends and did the 18 euro menu, I had the chèvre chaud salad which was pretty good, and some pretty good escargot for the table. My tuna steak was really dry. Additionally my friends who ordered the steak which came in vastly different sizes and they didn’t cook to order. One steak was bloody one was leather. We will see how the dessert goes.
However the rest of the restaurant had some rather undesirable features– for one we saw a cockroach. Ick. The hand dryer was very cold and unpleasant and the service was a little sluggish.
Hard 2, soft 3 for this place.

AVOID! AVOID! AVOID! The service was awful (characteristic of the area) the child’s menu for my nephew resembled dog food and french fries, our main dish — tuna in a balsamic sauce and veggies and rice were literally inedible so much so we ate a few bites and were unable to eat anymore.
The cocktail was good which makes it deserve a star but its more of a restaurant not a bar.

Just another great café on the street with heating and good food to hide from the rain.
