    • The Bayou, a Biarritz restaurant with Louisiana flavors

      Stepping through the doors of The Bayou restaurant is like entering the heart of New Orleans, surrounded by the sublime aromas of Cajun cuisine and the warm atmosphere that permeates every corner. Located just 10 minutes from Biarritz beach, this establishment takes you on a journey through a creative and daring culinary experience, perfectly blending French, Spanish, and Portuguese cuisine.


      Recipes that tell a story

      The Bayou is more than just a restaurant; it's a vibrant hub that blends cultures through its colorful Creole cuisine. On the menu, American chef Fergus creates signature dishes and gourmet specialties that tantalize the taste buds, such as Jambalaya, a delicious twist on the famous paella (with tomatoes replacing saffron). Gumbo, another Louisiana classic, bursts with the flavors of chicken, sausage, and vegetables in a fragrant broth (the vegan version is also very popular and in high demand). And for those with a bigger appetite, there's the Po'Boy, an incredible sandwich made with fresh bread and filled with xistora, chicken, shrimp, a combination of two meats, or a vegan option. Each of these dishes features a Basque touch with xistora, a local sausage that pairs perfectly with Cajun spices. Save room for dessert to bite into a soft-baked cookie, dig your spoon into a dark chocolate and pecan brownie, or savor a moist lemon poppy seed cake. The desserts are homemade by Cécile, a talented pastry chef from the Basque Country. Ice cream is also on the menu for those who love something refreshing.

      To accompany your meals, The Bayou offers a small selection of organic wines.


      The Bayou, the ideal restaurant for a trip to Biarritz

      Take a trip to Louisiana without leaving Southwest France! Behind the restaurant's door, a passionate and attentive team awaits, eager to introduce you to the recipes of New Orleans. The welcoming setting, with its wooden furniture and open bar/kitchen, perfectly complements the restaurant's relaxed atmosphere, inviting you to enjoy a delicious experience. At the entrance, a small terrace welcomes those who prefer to dine al fresco, where they can savor the flavors of Louisiana under the shade of an awning. The Bayou, a must-try that will leave you wanting to return.
