Cristal Kfé — Restaurant in Bayonne

As recommended by my Hotel next door tried this restaurant… first night with English speaking thé service & meal (seafood) was fantastic. I went the next night (brushed up on my French) ready to order but with ignored (heard about some "tourist" English speaking haters yet I’m far from tourist!?!….more Camino pilgrimage type.. anyway ignored with 3 other (French) couples in after me but served before me… I get it we all need to be patient but 20 minutes so left and went to Les Baigneuses de Biarritz down the road. Better (amazing!) meal and treated like a valued client… served within 1 minute yet they were busier. Maybe pick...

Given the reviews, it pains me to leave mine: The cappuccino I ordered was bad! really bad :( overly sweet because of too much chocolate powder, the milk wasn't frothed, and the coffee... well, I'm not sure if there was coffee or just hot water in this cup. It sure would be a okish hot chocolate or moka... for 4€, that's quite disappointing for a "Kfe" / Cafe place. Suggest you keep walking if you're after a decent cap / flat white / cafe au lait... well you got it. A long black or espresso might still be decent in this...

It was an interesting experience. We went one night where the waitress kept getting the orders wrong but the food was very good. We returned for the cuisine and this time the cook changed - the food was not great and our muscles were coated with sour cream which was not edible. No concessions were made for us when pointed out but we noticed they changed back their methods after our feedback. We left paying full price but would not return given the lack of consistency nor efforts to make things right...
