La Brigade - Anglet - Restaurant Bayonne

La Brigade in Anglet is a casual restaurant built around made-to-order meat and fries, with a format that lets each meal be adjusted to different appetites. Located on Avenue de Bayonne, it sits close to Bayonne and offers an easy dining option for visitors moving between the city, Anglet and Biarritz.

The menu focuses on butcher’s cuts served sliced, with several meat combinations available in a single serving. Beef, chicken and duck feature among the choices, while the kitchen cooks each portion to order. Homemade fries accompany the meat, providing a straightforward base for a selection of sauces prepared in-house. The sauces range from creamy and peppery styles to options with blue cheese, honey, satay or caramelised shallots, giving the same format different flavour directions.

The custom approach also works for lighter appetites or larger meals. Diners can select one, two or three meats, while sharing plates provide another way to build a meal. Savoury options include chicken tenders, vegetable tempura and breaded cheese. The menu is primarily focused on meat, although the vegetable starter offers a non-meat choice.

Drinks include fresh lemonade, homemade iced teas and cocktails. Dessert provides a sweeter finish, with options such as chocolate cake, cheesecake and a changing tiramisu. These choices keep the restaurant suitable for a relaxed lunch, an informal evening meal or a casual stop for a drink and something to eat.

The setting has a warm bistro character, with hand-painted street-art decoration adding a distinctive visual element. A broad terrace provides outdoor seating, while the dining format remains informal and practical for groups with different appetites. The restaurant also offers takeaway and delivery, so the same meat, fries and sauce combinations can be enjoyed away from the dining room.

La Brigade suits diners looking for a flexible steak-and-fries style meal rather than a formal restaurant experience. Its proximity to Bayonne, customisable portions, house sauces and terrace make it a useful choice for casual dining in the northern part of the Basque coast.
