Restaurants nearby
- La Maison de Pierre★ Michelin Here in the centre of the village, this duo, whose enthusiasm is infectious, have set up shop in a half-timbered building that sports the Basque Country's characteristic red and white. It was once a Basque pelota ground (the reception still has the old ticket windows and a glass door opening onto the trinquet). Chef Nicolas Montceau and his pastry chef partner Julien Bonnal, who is also in charge of plating up the dishes, swear by local produce. Their multi-course surprise tasting menu in several sequences is a delight, rife with harmonious combinations of flavours, delicious jus and sauces, a348m
- Lore Ttipia - Auberge Ostape★ Michelin A sprawling country estate on the heights of Bidarray and Itxassou is home to a 17C farmstead and outhouses. A panoramic terrace commands a jaw-dropping view over grandiose rolling countryside. Chef John Argaud, who trained with the best in the Basque Country (the Ibarboure brothers in Ithurria), as well as at Le Meurice Alain Ducasse in Paris, shines the spotlight on outstanding local produce. The food is crisp, legible and dotted with creativity; some ingredients are cooked over embers or finished on a hot stone for an added distinctive edge. An example: morels stuffed with sweetbread and du11.5km
- Choko Ona★ Michelin Clément and Flora are perpetually rejuvenating Choko Ona, exemplified by the kitchen garden of herbs and aromatic flowers that can be admired from the tables and tasted on your plate, without forgetting the emblematic piment d'Espelette. With this cornucopia of resources at his fingertips, the chef conjures up delicate, subtle, contemporary cuisine, sourcing everything as locally as possible: delicately confit Banka trout, hollandaise, broad beans and vinegar-laced elderflowers; steamed langoustines, jus of pig’s trotters and wild garlic emulsion; Dublanc pigeon, roasted whole, artichokes and 12.2km
- Elizaberriko Etxeberria This white building with green shutters is home to a restaurant run by British chef Alex Mahood and Eva Jaurena, who comes from a background in community catering. The DNA of the Spanish Basque Country runs through the couple's cuisine, which includes meat and whole fish, eg wild turbot, grilled over a wood fire on a traditional parilla, txuletas (rib steaks) from carefully selected breeds. The no-frills execution is impressive – think melt-in-the-mouth tortilla, silky rum-infused coq au lait, tripe in a spicy tomato sauce, house-made botifarra sausage with creamy cavolo nero, tarama with frie1.8km
- Ithurria★ Michelin You won’t find more typically Basque than Ithurria on Ainhoa’s Place du Fronton facing the village pelota wall! The attractive, traditional family-run establishment has retained its terracotta tiled floors, wooden rafters, gleaming copper pots and vintage tableware. With his pastry-chef brother Louis, chef Martin Isabal, who learned the ropes in star establishments, has taken over the reins from Uncle Xavier. The brothers sign a delicate menu in the zeitgeist founded on their Basque roots. Martin’s enticing score is sourced exclusively from local producers and their own kitchen garden. The ter17.8km
- Moulin d'Alotz★ Michelin In this 17C Basque watermill nestling deep in a picturesque vale, a conservatory commands views of the countryside and lush garden all year round. The site is emblematic of the ecological, humanist and gastronomic ethos of chef Fabrice Idiart. Now 100% vegetarian, his set menus, in which vegetables are dressed with plant-based and spicy sauces, reflect the chef's distinctive, unorthodox approach. Enticing.19.3km
- Art'zainBib Artzain means "shepherd" in Basque – in tribute to the owner’s father. Located in the centre of the village, this converted barn has retained a rustic feel, courtesy of old rafters and stone walls, which are contrasted with a contemporary edge thanks to furniture by Basque craftsman Alki. The menu features an enticing cast of seasonal and predominantly local ingredients that never disappoints: a country dish of black pudding, sausage, fresh pork belly, Tarbais beans and powdered garlic bread, or a wafer-thin tartlet of fresh goat’s cheese, confit lemon marmalade, squid and herb-spiked sorbet.15.3km
- Terrae A former fishmongers has been savvily repurposed into a charming pocket handkerchief restaurant. Lucile Voisin and Grégory Ménard (Choko-Ona and Grand Hôtel de Saint-Jean-de Luz) have left nothing to chance from the terracotta walls, linen-coloured banquettes and pale wooden tables to the exquisite tableware: silverware, hand-crafted Basque ceramics and cutlery. The menu is inspired by the availability of fresh local produce and the chef’s boundless creativity. Barbecued venison steak, shoulder as fritters and variations on the butternut; citrus fruits in a meringue nest with a yuzu-laced hous8.0km
- Ama This engaging restaurant in the heart of the spa resort is helmed by chef Adrien Layssac who rolls out seasonal market cuisine made with local produce: txangurro à la donostiarra; Basque lamb, squash and sweet chestnut gnocchi. Colourful, flavoursome fare that hits the spot every time.8.0km
- Le Bellevue The interior is light, and the menu is short. Two reasons to linger in this tastefully decorated restaurant. Traditional cuisine is revisited with enthusiasm and a keen sense of the pleasure of food. Try off - the - bone pig's trotter terrine or, for dessert, the hot soufflé with pear brandy.8.2km
