The story
In the heart of Béziers, Pica Pica brings a vibrant, convivial energy to the dining scene. The restaurant describes its cuisine as “cuisine de partage” — colourful, generous, and light, designed for sharing. The setting, an extension of the Hôtel XIX, evokes a 1950s brasserie, offering a relaxed backdrop for a meal that feels both spirited and refined.
The kitchen focuses on Mediterranean flavours, with a menu that changes regularly to reflect the seasons and the best local produce. The group menu gives a clear sense of the kitchen's style: tapas-style starters like croquetas de jamón, black hummus with pine nuts and pita, and burrata with caramelised pears, followed by dishes such as grilled Ibérico pork cooked over a wood fire or a Catalan-style lamb kebab. Sides include panisses (chickpea fries) and seasonal vegetables cooked over the same fire.
Pica Pica’s commitment to quality and value was recognised early on. Just months after opening, the restaurant earned a Bib Gourmand from the Michelin Guide, an award that highlights good quality, good value cooking. This recognition speaks to the restaurant's ability to deliver a memorable, flavour-driven experience without pretension.
Open seven days a week, with lunch and dinner service, Pica Pica has quickly become a fixture in Béziers for those seeking a lively, welcoming spot built on generous Mediterranean cooking.
