Trinquet Ttiki An essential place to live in the heart of the Basque Country

Trinquet Ttiki, an essential place to discover in the Basque Country

Welcome to Ciboure, a charming village bordering Saint Jean de Luz, where you will find an adorable trinquet known for being the smallest in the world. Built in 1930, it is a real institution that was abandoned, energetically taken over in 2023 by Marina.

Trinquet Ttiki, a restaurant with family cuisine in Ciboure

Open from 9am, the Trinquet Ttiki is the ideal place to share a good coffee, installed on the small terrace or in the pretty blue room. Passionate about decoration as well as cooking, Marina is in her element.

At lunch, she offers gourmet and generous recipes, made with local seasonal products such as vegetables from Antton, the only market gardener in Ciboure, or favorite products such as artisanal ravioli from Vercors. The menu changes every week, with homemade dishes served from Tuesday to Saturday lunchtime.

In the evening and at weekends, pintxos are on the menu for a successful aperitif with artisanal chips, fuet (artisanal sausage) or even pâté, perfect to accompany a beer brewed in the Basque Country, a glass of wine or the local cider.

Book your Thursday evenings with the pintxo pote, a friendly and family moment not to be missed. This Basque tradition is a tour of the bars from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. For a drink purchased, a pintxo is offered by the house, the opportunity to treat yourself, and to have a good evening.

Trinquet Ttiki, a kantxa where you can spend time in Ciboure

With her boundless energy, Marina wants to bring the Trinquet Ttiki to life in a different way and energize the village center.

The main activity remains of course the unmissable Basque pelota where 2 to 4 players can compete in one-hour slots to be reserved. Tournaments are also organized there, such as during the Bixintxo, a village festival that takes place in January each year.

The rest of the year, Marina offers kantxa (the room) for professionals who provide yoga, Pilates or samba classes, a program offered on Saturday mornings.

The Trinquet Ttiki is also a place that can be privatized for groups of 15 people or more, with a quote made to measure according to your needs and your budget. And to end the year in style, Marina invites you to her Christmas market of creators to share a magical moment in a space in her image, warm and welcoming.
