    • “May food be good for you, drink not harm you, may the body be healthy and the soul not be harmed.”

      In the heart of Hendaye beach, an ageless bistro, a survivor of the Belle Époque, an old zinc bar, characters with strong identities. You are at Kanttu.

      Le Kanttu welcomes you in a warm setting that recalls the atmosphere of the bistros of yesteryear. Our desire is to make you spend a pleasant moment in our company and to share with you our vision of the gastronomy of the Basque Country, both rich and authentic. This begins with a selection of local products that follow the rhythm of the seasons, with suppliers certified organic or engaged in responsible approaches.

      Two options, the wine bistro with tapas and rations to share and the restaurant. All based on cultural and gourmet cuisine. With 40 years of experience, our chef, through his know-how, enhances the texture and taste of the selected products that will remind some of the flavor of the dishes prepared by our grandmothers.

      The magic of the place, the quality of the welcome, the family spirit that reigns there as well as the variety of our dishes are all assets that make its reputation.

      Prices:

      • A la carte suggestions according to the seasons
      • Price from 19 €
      • Ration from 9 euros

    Wonderful food and lovely service on a pleasant terrace close to the beach. We enjoyed a selection of entrees as a tapas style and all of the were really delicious, especially the marinated anchovies, the tomato salad, the pimientos pardon!
