On the banks of the River Nive in the heart of Bayonne, a rest'o counter that's often fully booked... and a new-generation tapas bar, just like the famous tapas bars of our Spanish neighbors. A rest'o comptoir-bistrot-cave where you'll discover not classic tapas, but raciones to be enjoyed in small quantities over a drink, as an aperitif or simply for a meal. Tapas complete with pintxos. Squid rabas, roasted camembert, mackerel rillettes, salmon gravlax...

At the Cave des Darons, we drink and eat. Yannick took over this old cellar, which had already been in existence for 25 years. We particularly like the patio (which can be privatized) where you can enjoy the terrace. The wine bar is open from Tuesday to Saturday until 9pm in July and August, otherwise from Thursday to Saturday. Wine tasting is often accompanied by a platter of local produce. Open all year round, the Cave des Darons houses no fewer than 1,000 references. Meetings with producers are also on the agenda. Also in La Teste-de-Buch.

Le Pré Salé is a tapas bar with a "colorful and recuperative" terrace that invites you to sip a cocktail or a cold drink. You can also come for breakfast, a main course or a lunchtime menu, and an afternoon snack of waffles and iced coffee, for example. We decided to go at the end of the day. We would have gone for tapas, but... we weren't offered. Too bad, because the mixed "plank" looked rather nice. Afterwards, we headed off to watch the sunset over the pool at the end of the street.
