"Cheri Bibi is named after the hero of Gaston Leroux's novelChéri-Bibi et Cécily. The chef at this trendy bistro is Brittany-born Adrien Witte, formerly a financier, who has turned his passion into a career. Seen in action in his kitchen from the restaurant floor, he goes to great lengths to make his guests feel good. The chef's dishes, which are designed for sharing (but don't have to be!), are based on the best local ingredients. Expect uninhibited and flavoursome creations, with nods to his international career: mimosa eggs; grilled sweetcorn, oyster mushroom pickles, peanuts from Aquitaine, shiso and crispy chilli oil; line-caught mahi-mahi, pil-pil sauce and roast aubergine. His efficient partner welcomes guests with a smile. You can choose your own bottle in the wine shop." - Michelin Inspector

Chéri Bibi is, without a doubt, my favorite restaurant in Biarritz. Every single item on the menu reaches unthinkable levels of flavor, detail, and presentation. The freshness of the ingredients is absolutely next level, you can taste the care and seasonality in every bite. From the first plate to the last, there isn’t a single misstep; each dish feels like a small masterpiece. If I could give it 6 stars, I would. Chéri Bibi is a rare gem, and for me, it’s the very best restaurant in Biarritz.

I was so positively surprised by Cheri Bibi. It’s not just cute, aesthetic vibes, it also delivers! While I was intimidated by how busy it looked every night (we didn’t have a reservation for the week we were visiting, oops), we got to the restaurant like 5 minutes before opening and were seated right away. The food was simple but delicious, and the experience getting to pop into the walk-in wine fridge was really fun. All of the natural wine we tried was great, and the standout dish we ate was the curried eggplant. I’m stiiiill thinking about it. Even though we got there right when it opened, we were never rushed by servers, and ended up spending almost 3 hours there! It was such a fun ambience we just ended up ordering more wine and snacks. Love love loved this spot and definitely going back next time we’re in Biarritz.

Fresh and creative food coupled with a cool natural wine bar. Casual and laid back, feels like something you would find in Brooklyn or Copenhagen. Food is outstanding, among the best places we visited in Biarritz and in France.

Best meal we had in Biarritz hands down. It was just incredible from start to finish, everything delicious and using the most beautiful produce. My partner is a chef so we have a high bar but this blew us away big time. Absolutely loved it and can’t wait to come back. Merci Cheri 😘

It’s an absolute gem! I recommend it 100%. First of all, the chef sources everything locally, from the town and nearby farms, and makes everything himself—from fresh pasta to roasted almonds. The menu changes weekly, so it’s always something new and seasonal. It’s a bit like those “Chefs table” episodes on Netflix. The quality is top top, and the regional wine selection pairs perfectly. We went in January, and the place was packed with great energy and vibes. Honestly, it’s as good as some of the best restaurants in Paris or London. Highly recommend!

Food incredible. Staff lovely / understated / very kind. Vino - sublime. Foolishly did not make a booking but everywhere online raved about this place so wanted to see what the fuss was about. First night we missed out as there are minimum spaces for walk-ins. Went back on our second night just before doors opened and managed to get a table. Everything was lovely. Our waiter was super helpful/lovely. We chose wine from the cellar. All round wonderful experience. Place packs out so get there early if you don’t have a booking. Everything we ate was lovely but stand out dishes include the tuna, the aubergine/mussel thing and the basque cheesecake!

Nice cute restaurant in the Biarritz area with nice hip vibe to it. The food was really nice and well priced given the quality. The service is a bit slow. Reason I'm giving it 2 stars is because after eating our desert that we really enjoyed we decided to order a second portion when the waitress said ok but you'll have to eat it in a table outside because we need the table. I personally didn't find that professionally especially given the fact they were the ones coming late with the food to begin with so it was not fair to rush the guests outside for a another client who didn't even appear yet.

In a residential, non touristy area, Cheri Bibi serves both locals and tourists alike managing the evening with great professionalism. Every plate we ordered was delicious with sauces we wiped off the plates with bread. Bottled wine selection for reds was limited but we enjoyed the selection by the glass. A hipster atmosphere but plenty of families welcomed (and a toddler was quite happy eating in a lovely rattan baby chair). Reservations a must.
