"Superb lunch and very reasonably priced. Very friendly staff. We had hake which was cooked to perfection. They also do a three course meal, again reasonably priced. Clearly a local haunt. Well worth a visit."
Away from the confusion-go for it and find it: it's worth it. Good wine, very kind service, clean and with a varied menu; we usually choose carefully, but we were suggested to take the Plat du Jour because it was pretty late already. It was a good option: great value for money, served with an unexpected level of courtesy and attention. Dessert (Pain Perdu with ice cream) was a discovery for me. The place does not look sooo attractive from outside but don't let the appearance bring you back on the main roads, where all more touristy places are. If you like to eat well, in a calm place, and be treated not like one-of-the-many, this is your place. And mine :-)

Don't be put off by the unassuming facade--this is a serious restaurant. It backs up to the trinquet court and has almost no sign on the street. There is nothing flashy here except the food, and you won't see any tourists. We were there for lunch and had small plates of jambon de Bayonne, rellenos with goat cheese and chipirones. I will agree with the previous reviewer, the chipirones were some of the most tender I've ever had, with an excellent sauce. These three plates were for four people. They were accompanied by a bottle of an excellent Bordeaux. The check came to 38 euros The Trinquet is hard to find, but well worth the search..

The Trinquet San Andrés is the first trinquet covered by Bayona. But what's a trinquet? It's a place where people meet to play the Basque ball. This is both a restaurant and a brewery. We don't try the restaurant, but we're attracted to the noise of the trim room. A ball sent at full speed on a wall, you notice! So we could see the game palm game developed and the least we can say is that this is a sport ... We were tired of seeing... The trim is a place quite frequented by the inhabitants of Bayona, but there are also many tourists (like us) who were attracted by the noise and atmosphere that emanates from the place!
We came upon this restaurant when we visited the trinquet court. It's not easy to find but worth the effort. We ended up there twice. The building itself is interesting and the restaurant an unexpected bonus. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. The food, cooked by an unassuming chef is very good and fresh, the chipirones a standout. Go, you will not be disappointed!
