17/08/2026: The dishes were beautifully presented and very tasty, prepared with local produce. A wonderful culinary experience.

19/08/2026: My first lunch break at the Brasserie since the change of ownership, and I wasn't disappointed! A wonderful welcome: the waitress was so cheerful. We had the quick bite option, and it was delicious! All accompanied by lovely background music! I highly recommend this place for both the food and the atmosphere!

31/07/2026: Impressive from start to finish. Without a doubt, a truly 5-star place. Starter: We ordered the foie gras and it was, without exaggeration, the best we've ever had. Main course: The Canard Rossini is a must-order, a true marvel of flavor and texture. Grilled meat: The meat was perfect, but the potatoes, served as tartare, were simply amazing. Dessert: The crème brûlée was excellent and the perfect ending to the meal. The quality of the food and the service make for a perfect 10/10 experience. We'll definitely be back! Something that's often overlooked, the staff's service was 10/10—friendly and incredibly kind.

26/07/2026: Honestly, we went to this restaurant with a friend to see what it was like because we love meat and duck. We weren't disappointed; the portions were really generous, the meat was delicious, and the duck was excellent (yes, we each ordered two dishes because we're big eaters 😅). And honestly, for four of us, with a bottle of wine and two beers each as an aperitif, along with a charcuterie and cheese platter, we paid the equivalent of €50 per person. For the experience and the quality, it's fantastic value for money. The manager is very friendly and accommodating, and the young waitress and waiter are very kind, polite, and attentive. We highly recommend it!

03/08/2026: A very good waiter and a very good time spent, slightly marred by the efficiency at the bar.

26/07/2026: We came for lunch following a Petit Futé recommendation, and let me tell you, the review doesn't do justice to the quality of the food! Creative and delicious, we loved it! Top-notch service, and the value for money is incredible.

20/07/2026: A delicious lunch break on Sunday. This restaurant was a very pleasant surprise. An excellent set menu for €23. I also really enjoyed the non-alcoholic beer. It was very nice to be able to enjoy a real beer when you have to get back on the road.

19/06/2026: I strongly advise against this restaurant! It had no flavor, and the cheese was tiny for a roasted Camembert. The service was very poor; I understand why it was empty! Avoid it at all costs!

10/06/2026: Excellent place, I've been several times and it's always very good, generous portions, and affordable. The service is always excellent. The facade is currently being renovated, but I called and they confirmed it was open, and I wasn't disappointed.

16/08/2026: The crepes, both savory and sweet, are excellent. The waitresses are very friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend it if you're in the area!

14/08/2026: Very friendly, fast service and delicious crepes.

19/08/2026: Excellent menu. The egg starter was superb, well-balanced with a touch of acidity in the sauce. The fish was cooked to perfection, accompanied by delicious vegetables. The pastry for the raspberry tartlet dessert was very good, with a hint of buckwheat adding an exquisite flavor.

17/08/2026: Wow! What a great find in Pau! A lovely little restaurant, warm and welcoming, with a very pleasant terrace. The service was quick even though we had plenty of time. A set menu bursting with delicious flavors made with local ingredients. Behind it all is one person: the chef. In addition to the cooking and the service, she explains in detail what you're about to enjoy. Congratulations! 🤩

04/08/2026: Delicious food and perfect service. I loved the healthy and delicious options. There were a good selection of drinks as well.

30/07/2026: My partner, who is neither vegan nor vegetarian, and I came, and he loved it. A fantastic find, the food was very well prepared. We'll gladly return.

29/07/2026: Very good, the dishes were presented in an original way. Located near the castle.

29/07/2026: We discovered this restaurant during a previous stay in Pau three years ago. We were happy to stop by again on a Saturday at lunchtime. Prices have increased considerably in three years, but so has everything else (thanks to inflation!). We had the set menu (starter/main/dessert) for €22. Individual dishes are around €20 (€19 for a homemade burger and fries). The children's menu is €12 and includes crispy chicken and fries, and a scoop of ice cream or panna cotta. The servers were pleasant, although the service seemed a little slow. However, the quality of the food is still excellent; the dishes are delicious and beautifully presented. We had a lovely time.

13/08/2026: What a delightful time we had at this restaurant! Everything was perfectly executed, from the welcome to the last bite. The quality of the ingredients was impeccable, and the presentation was truly exquisite. I particularly appreciated the attention to detail on the plate, especially the pomegranate seeds, which added a touch of freshness and a beautiful splash of color to the dessert. We loved the ambiance and the refined flavors. It's an excellent place to treat yourself. We will definitely be back.

29/07/2026: Excellent cuisine made with fresh produce. Outstanding foie gras! Very friendly welcome.

10/08/2026: What a disappointment... As regulars at Michelin-starred restaurants, we had come to dine for a special occasion at this establishment, which is supposed to have elegant, courteous, and discreet staff, worthy of a four-star rating. To our surprise, one of the waitresses verbally attacked her colleague in front of us with great condescension, even though the latter had been very pleasant to us. She criticized our table, saying it would require her to vacuum (aren't waiters supposed to clean after service?! This reaction made us a little worried about hygiene...). We were left feeling very uncomfortable by this altercation and the atmosphere, which was more like a cheap pub. The table next to us felt the same way. According to our neighbors, who are regulars, this woman has a reputation for being very temperamental, rude, and always speaking very loudly. Despite the very good food (a point in favor of the cuisine), we will not be returning.

04/08/2026: La Basse Cour: The food is good... when it actually arrives Dinner at the hotel restaurant, La Basse Cour. Verdict in two parts: the food on one hand, the service on the other. The service, let's talk about it: it's a whole other story. Cold and rigid, a Lenten atmosphere. We arrive, are seated on the terrace at our request because it's pleasant on this summer afternoon, and we sit down. And we wait. Five minutes, then ten, then fifteen. Time seems to stand still. Other customers arrive after us, and presto, they're served. We watch the glasses and plates go by, amazed. We even checked in the reflection of the window: no, we weren't invisible. So we finally mention it; the wait was becoming unbearable. Result: we're politely told off. So we wait, stoic, while orders from our neighbors are being served right under our noses. It has to be said that only one server takes orders for the entire dining room and terrace. The team is clearly understaffed, and it shows. It's a shame, because the food is good, really. The dishes come out quickly, but not all at the same time. So we take turns nibbling, one person eating while another waits. Perhaps that's what the barnyard mentality is all about, after all. In short: after a long day at work, opt for Deliveroo. If you have the time, or you're with family, arm yourself with patience: it's still pretty good.

23/07/2026: Nicolas and his team are fantastic. They allowed me, as a witness, to organize a bachelorette party at their restaurant. A very friendly atmosphere, exceptional team. We had a wonderful time, everything was perfect. Thank you again!
