We stopped in the village of Bazas to see the cathedral and found a great find in Le Boeuf Pop. Fantastic local beef ...excellent steak and prepared to perfection. The duck and vegetarian dishes were also very good. This restaurant was full at lunchtime, always a good sign, and run with a lot of good humoured. The owners do a great job and keep the eatery lively and entertaining. Great experience.

As an Englishman, I can't believe how lucky the French can be: not only do they have their own cuisine, but now they've stolen fish and chips and turned them into an art form! Perfectly cooked cod in beautiful batter served in a paper wrapper (properly hygienic, not like the good old days of newspaper!) with excellent chips and a lovely salad in the heart of France - sacré bleu! I was lucky enough to be able to compliment the chef in person and hope to be able to do the same again soon - well worth the trip.

My wife and I have visited this restaurant in the charming town of Bazas several times in the past few years and had some interesting meals. I am sorry to say that we were disappointed on this occasion.We both had scallops for starter but these were cooked in an almost inedible vinegar sauce. I just donât know what the chef was trying to do here but it didnât work. If it were not for the quality of the scallops we would have sent the dish back.For main course I had a steak which was tasty enough and my wife had cod but unfortunately it came with a watered down version of the sauce we had with our starter. Not only that, but the cod had clearly just been defrosted and came to the table as a mushy and tasteless piece of fish.Our waitress was attentive and helpful but she clearly saw we were not enjoying our dining experience. We decided not to risk having a dessert and left.Maybe we just visited on an off night but you really canât serve food like this and expect rave reviews.

This bistrot was featured in Rick Stein's TV programme "French Odyssey" some ten years ago. During our one week holiday near Bazas, we had occasion to sample boeuf de Bazas (beef from the Bazadais breed of cattle) buying it from local butchers and grilling it ourselves.After visiting the outdoor market in Bazas, we decided to have lunch at this restaurant in the cathedral square. My husband ordered the entrecote while I chose confit de canard (duck confit). I was disappointed with my dish as it was overcooked and dry. Some parts of the duck leg were burnt and the meat was tough. This is a classic dish which most French bistro/brasserie can do very well but sadly this place did not meet the mark. In fact those prepared vacuum packed duck confit bought from French supermarkets would taste better than what I had in this bistrot. Fortunately my husband had better luck with his order. Then again, with a great piece of beef from the prized cattle, you can't go wrong, cooking it. The portion of steak was huge. Both dishes came with frites, lettuce. half tomato and overcooked fine beans.The entrecote was quite pricey at Euro 25 while the confit de canard was reasonable at Euro 13. My husband recommends the Bazadais beef and especially the steak at this restaurant.Service was fine despite a busy Saturday afternoon.

Ideally situated in the heart of a 3 ha field, up on the city of Bazas and it's cathedral, "la Table de Fompeyre" proposes a traditional and modernized cooking with mainly local products like duck or Beef from Bazas. Lunch and diners can be served on terr

Dinner was set up on a large outdoor terrace,partly under tents.Below the tents ceiling fans were blowing,so was the wind outdoors,the end result was that we were cold.To make matters worse service was very slow.For the food my appetizer of gesier salad was good,the beef with very strange orange garnish that followed was not good.Dessert of cheeses was average at best.The worse part was wine by the glass,I chose two red Bordeaux supposedly fairly good vintages.The waitress brought the first glass filled without showing me the bottle.It was not very good so I asked to see the bottle before she poured me the second one.However she repeated the same process claiming there was a machine in the bar filling the glasses and the bottle could not be brought over.The second glass was even worse than the first.I ended up paying for two supposedly decent wines and drinking two unpalatable glasses without being sure they were what I ordered.
