A gourmet institution created in 1890, this cosy store with old-fashioned displays, gleaming brass and crystal chandeliers is an invitation to discover a wide choice of specialities: gourmet bar, chocolate candy, turrón and Bayonne macaroon! Here, we love the great vintages with always the same chocolate signature: power, length in the mouth, delicacy of aromatic combinations. The almond pastes are "fresh", a rarity. In the same spirit, macaroons with little sugar have a remarkable almond flavour. Also present in Biarritz since 1930.

Daranatz, the chocolate tradition of Bayonne in the Basque Country (64)
Introduced by the Portuguese Jews, it appears in the archives of Bayonne, as early as 1670.
The house founded by the Daranatz brothers in 1890 is an integral part of this heritage and continues to delight generations of Basques.
It is one of the pillars of the Bayonne chocolate industry.
Whether in our Bayonne store or in the one in Biarritz, opened in 1930, time goes by without disturbing anything.
Generations have come and gone, coming to our stores to find a unique know-how.
We invite you to share the long and rich history of Bayonne chocolate. The Daranatz house, it's great dark chocolate vintages, exclusive fresh almond paste and many other products!
Push the door of our stores and enter our universe. It's your turn to discover our specialties!

Un vrai chocolatier comme il n'en existe plus.
Le chocolat au lait de mon enfance, le même que celui du temps où mes parents avaient la pâtisserie Mauferon à Agen, pareil pour le praliné, c'est du vrai et pas de la poudre comme dans toutes les autres chocolateries de Bayonne.
Je suis tellement heureuse d'y retrouvé les regrettés chocolats de mon papa.
Continuez ainsi, c'est un pur bonheur de pouvoir déguster vos délices.
A très vite avec le plus grand des plaisirs.
Tout est bon et raffiné, que ce soit les chocolats, les tourons et les tablettes.
Gros coup de cœur pour leur macaron qui est excellent, fondant et pas trop sucré.
En savourer en fin de repas avec un petit café corsé : un pur délice.
