Chez Margot is a famous traditional restaurant inaugurated in 1930 by Margot, or rather Marguerite Olascuaga. Originally from Hondarribia, she lived in Socoa, a small district of Ciboure.
She begins to cook for the local fishermen who wear their sculls. Some “summer visitors” accompany these fishermen and enjoy the meals. Thus begins Margot's good reputation.
She opened her restaurant in the small room of the bar and it quickly became a success. She then expanded by purchasing the room next door where boats were made. A large terrace finally completes the restaurant's reception possibilities.
Almost 100 years later, you can still enjoy excellent traditional and local cuisine, based on fish and seafood with a breathtaking view of the bay of Saint-Jean-de-Luz.
