LA CANTINE FLAMENT: AUTHENTIC CUISINE IN THE HEART OF THE BAGNÈRES-DE-BIGORRE HALLES

Local cuisine and market inspiration

Within the Halles de Bagnères-de-Bigorre, in the historic center of this town in the Hautes-Pyrénées, La Cantine Flament is a popular address for lovers of fresh produce and home cooking. Run by chef JAN, a local, this friendly restaurant offers daily cuisine directly inspired by the market stalls.

Every morning, the chef carefully selects his ingredients from small local producers, favoring seasonality and short supply chains. The result: dishes that evolve with the seasons, full of authentic flavors and gourmet creativity.

The recipes vary each week and feature local vegetables, Pyrenean meats, and artisanal cheeses. Both a restaurant and a caterer, La Cantine Flament also offers takeaway options, designed to extend the pleasure at home or as a picnic during a Pyrenean hike. Everything is prepared on site, in a warm and relaxed atmosphere, reflecting the town itself.

This privileged location creates a direct link between the cuisine and the Pyrenean terroir. Here, spices, fresh herbs, local charcuterie and even Tarbais beans take on their full dimension in the hands of Jany.

The place seduces with its simplicity: large tables, a welcoming counter, a handwritten menu that changes every day, and always the desire to please. Whether for a solo lunch, a family meal or a meeting with friends, La Cantine Flament is the ideal place to discover a lively, accessible market cuisine deeply rooted in its local environment.

Thanks to his catering business, Chef Flament also offers tailor-made services for private or professional events: weddings, business meals, family celebrations, etc., all with the same requirement for freshness and authenticity.
