Café du Commerce - Biarritz

Arriving as a group of 9 for dinner at an odd (early) hour with a time constraint (meeting to go to in 75 minutes), we were warmly received and quickly served with varied and interesting dishes (as opposed to simply cliché boring brasserie food) :...grilled chipirons (calamari), grilled baby pork chops, salmon, and yes, burgers, but also a vegetarian option of ravioli stuffed with aubergine. We felt (having communicated our time constraint) that the staff were aware and made a genuine effort to make our meal happen (and they succeeded).

Not acceptable. One hour waiting for one plate. The food is ok, but the service a complete disaster. I will not come back again.

I love this placeWe came here twice, both times without a reservationThe tables book up in advance, but they made room for us at the bar.

Fabulous dining al fresca @ this charming cafe! What a great meal..baguette burgers fish and chips and eggs Benedict. Yum..no one cooks like the French!

We had a plate with snails to share and for main course the entrecôte accompanied as per usual with béarnaise and fries and a jug of green salad. The snails
