Visited for an early dinner (staying at the B&B Hotel in Lons so very convenient) very warm welcome. Varied menu from burgers salads fish meat. Great service friendly waiter. Food very tasty and well presented. Will visit again when in the area.

Very good value menus at lunch. Friendly staff who also speak very good English. Only just misses out on five stars because you can tell a little how they keep the costs for that menu down, and the rest of the menu is more usually priced. Still, would go again and clearly popular with locals and repeat visitors.

Omnivore

Two minutes from Pau Château, on the picturesque Place Gramont, imagine a nostalgic bistro with a zinc-topped counter, wood panelling and upholstered seating. Pau's foodies flock here, sharing good vibes as they tuck into fish fresh from the fish auction or 24hr shoulder of pork. The slate menu features traditional nosh served generously and sometimes enhanced by touches of citrus fruit or well-balanced smoky notes. The jovial front-of-house staff are an added bonus.

Maynats

In their new premises, the Maynats (meaning "boys" or "kids" in the Béarn dialect) continue to win us over with their instinctive and playful cuisine – their surf and turf combinations are particularly on point. The vibe is cool and friendly in the octagonal glass-paned dining room. Thanks to the mixture of ambitious food and relaxed service, it has earned a place in the hearts of the locals. Surprise menu with several courses in the evening. The wine list specialises in organic labels.

Les Pipelettes

Here, the delicious dishes are prepared according to the produce available at the market stalls and the harvests of some 30 farmers based near Pau. The chef does his job well, and that's all that matters: scallops and celeriac purée; wild sea bass from Saint-Jean-de-Luz; pork grenadin, endives and oyster mushrooms. Set menus (without options) at lunch and dinner, but the value for money is excellent.

L'Interprète

In a chic bohemian setting in the heart of the city centre, you are invited to sample creative bistronomy that takes its cue from the seasons, in the form of well-constructed carte blanche set menus. Chef Quentin Maysou takes pleasure in cooking: pan-fried scallops, banana miso and quinoa with spinach; veal fillet, salsify au jus, roasted clementine, cashew nuts and smoked pepper… Plus a convivial atmosphere.

Maison Ruffet - Villa Navarre

A large 19C villa set in formal gardens houses this restaurant with an intimate atmosphere. With just six tables, the dining room is done out in a minimalist design that has retained the original herringbone parquet flooring and the mouldings. Stéphane Carrade (Le Skiff Club in Pyla-sur-Mer) has devised a menu that honours Béarn and its produce – the name of this establishment pays homage to the Jurançon restaurant where he was first awarded two stars. The Gascony-inspired single set menu weaves in seafood and citrus notes. A new spin on cuisine du terroir that is as tasty as it is meticulous: fat-roasted wood pigeon, salmi sauce; sole with porcini and smooth Jurançon butter; lamb saddle fillet and pieds paquets (mutton tripe and feet)… What a feast!

Jumo & Co

In the heart of the old town of Pau, twin brothers, one a chef and the other a pastry chef, have successfully launched their family business in a modern bistro-style setting laid out over two floors, complete with a pastry counter and tea room. The menu is a real draw, and also represents great value for money. This talented pair bring a touch of magic to their apparently simple dishes, drawing on sweet and sour jus and a medley of condiments to enhance their ingenious and generous, yet always light cuisine. Think confit pork belly, barbecue jus, pickled vegetables, radishes, polenta croquette.

Resto Dit Vin

In a pedestrian street in the centre of Pau, this inviting and indulgent place is one to keep under your hat, as both the dining area and terrace are invariably packed to the rafters! In his semi-open kitchen, chef Alexis Bourdrel gives pride of place to local ingredients that he knows inside out and sources from farmers with whom he has built up a rapport: the vegetables come from the market-gardener parents of his wife, who works in the dining room; the ale is from Béarn, and the bottles on the menu are for sale at wine merchant prices, to enjoy at home. The short menu changes regularly (seared scallops and Jerusalem artichoke glazed in a meat jus, Pyrenean trout gravlax and, for dessert, Pyrenean flax and pear poached in Jurançon).
