The story
At La Table du Cinq in Bagnères-de-Bigorre, the kitchen is guided by a simple idea: cook with what is local, seasonal, and honest. Aurélie and Paul welcome guests into a convivial space where the plates reflect the landscape of the Pyrenees and the warmth of the Midi-Pyrénées. This approach earned the restaurant a Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2026, a recognition for good quality, good value cooking that feels right at home here.
The menu changes regularly, driven by market availability. At lunch, a daily Menu of the Day (13€ to 17.50€) offers a straightforward, unfussy option. The evening and weekend carte features a more composed selection, including a 34€ starter-main-cheese or dessert formula. Recent dishes include a croquette of Bigorre Black Pork chorizo with soubise and tarragon jus, roasted potimarron squash with burratina and hazelnut oil pesto, and a roasted hake fillet with matelote sauce of red wine. Desserts change with the seasons—a chocolate fondant with peanut ice cream, or a lemon cream with meringue and mojito sorbet. Everything, from bread to pastries, is made in-house.
Aurélie and Paul are the hands-on force behind the restaurant, their names on the website a quiet promise of personal attention. The dining room strikes a balance between relaxed and refined, with outdoor seating available when the weather allows. For those wanting to linger, the cheese plate from La Ferme Claria offers a taste of the region’s dairy traditions. The result is a restaurant that feels both ambitious and approachable—exactly the kind of place the Bib Gourmand is designed to celebrate.
