Café Ttipia sur Saint-Jean-Pied-De-Port

Best place to have a drink and a meal.

A perfect 10 experience. The service was excellent: all the waiters were very friendly, attentive, and pleasant at all times. We also enjoyed a terrace with incredible views, and a highlight was that they allow dogs, which we greatly appreciated as we could eat with our dog. For our main course, we ordered calamari with tartar sauce, which was spectacular. For our second course, we had a fish dish with vegetables, egg, and cheese, and grilled beef with potatoes and salad; both were delicious and beautifully presented. To finish, we had two scoops of ice cream, which were fantastic. In total, the meal for two people with two IPA beers came to €67, which we found to be excellent value for money considering the quality of the food, the ambiance, and the service. Without a doubt, a highly recommended place that we will definitely return to.

Thank you for this excellent time; we enjoyed our meal. Everything was perfect!

Delicious food, filet mignon and octopus. Good and fast service.

Excellent staff, great atmosphere, and superb food. We had a wonderful time! Go without hesitation! We absolutely loved it!

We came to this establishment for a meal attracted by its culinary offerings, and in terms of food quality and value for money, the experience was very good. However, we felt somewhat uncomfortable with the service, despite knowing that some employees spoke a little Spanish. We noticed a distant and inattentive attitude, seeing how other customers who arrived after us were attended to and served before us, both while waiting for a table and when being served. Furthermore, despite asking for water several times, it was never offered to us, a service we saw being routinely provided to the other tables. We want to clarify that at no point did we refuse to pay for water had it been served to us; we simply wanted to stay hydrated. We suspect there might be some cultural difference in how the choice of drinks is perceived; we ordered tonic water and then wine to show our willingness to pay, but after insisting again on water, it never arrived, although, to our surprise, the table next to us was served it. However, we believe that, regardless of any cultural or linguistic differences, service should be fair to all customers. It's a shame because the food is highly recommended, but the lack of attention marred the experience. We're sharing this so that other Spanish travelers visiting the area who don't speak the local language are aware of our experience, and hopefully, the establishment can improve these aspects of customer service.

Everything was good. A lovely gourmet stop recommended by a local. It's hearty and tasty.
