L'assiette du cuistot

I travel a lot; for business, as well as pleasure, and have tried my fair share of burgers in several countries (U.K., U.S.A, Mexico,Peru, Brasil, Japan...). I can honestly say I have never had such a good burger. What makes this place special is the degree to which everything is made in-house. The burger meat either beef (patty made from scratch), or the duck (is simply a carved duck breast - cooked perfectly I might add). Then there's the roll, the bread is made in-house and baked in the pizza oven, so you know the bread is always fresh. The french fries, are home made and are better than any other fries I've ever had. The rest is just simple veg and great tasting, original sauces ( - I had the Spanish burger on my first visit, which had a semi hash-brown/tomato sauce in it, to begin with this sounded a bit weird, being from the U.K. we don't tend to mix potato with tomato, however, it was incredible). All the sauces are incredible. I could keep writing about this place, but I don't want to prattle on, I'm going finish by saying that, I'm approx 6'2", 80-85Kg of Rower i.e. I eat a lot, and I can say without any hesitation that the portion sizes are amazing.Congrats if you've made it this far, and my sincerest apologies for droning on, however I only do so because I truly wish that you give this place a try, if you're not too pretentious, and have an open mind, you will be wowed. I will definitely be going back next time I'm in Tarbes.

Very casual, very imaginative take on fast food done French style, the magret was superb, duck was tender, cooked just right and full of flavour. The owner works hard, made us very welcome despite us arriving late for lunch and keeping him open 35 mins past his normal time. Fantastic for lunch, my colleague had the ocean pizza which was also very good. Come hungry, these are large portions too

Very good burgers! I tried the one with the duck meat and fois gras and was excellent! Too much for one person, the burgers are enormous, the meat is of good quality and the owner is friendly and helpful. An unpretensious place to go and enjoy good food and excellent service!

Although the wait for the food was quite long, it was undoubtedly worth it. The owner complemented the 4 burgers we had with an aperatif and some liqueur for after the meal. The burgers were very tasty and even the fries were very fresh. Would visit again.

Don't be put off by the unimposing exterior. The staff are very friendly. The food is excellent, the magret burger is just incredible. The duck cooked to perfection with a wonderful sauce and enormous.
