BASTARDO

BASTARDO, Strasbourg: Quick Take

With a name this deliberately provocative, BASTARDO at 17 Rue des Tonneliers in Strasbourg's historic tanner quarter is making a statement before you even sit down. The address alone tells you something: the Rue des Tonneliers sits in the dense medieval core of Strasbourg's Grande Île, a UNESCO-listed island where the streets narrow and the buildings lean in close. If the space reflects the address, expect intimacy over grandeur — the kind of room where the layout does the atmospheric work that larger venues outsource to decor budgets.

Because the venue database for BASTARDO is currently sparse, Pearl cannot confirm price tier, cuisine type, chef, or current hours. What that means for you: contact BASTARDO directly before visiting to confirm service times, especially if you are planning around the current season, when Strasbourg's tourist calendar — and local restaurant demand , peaks around the Christmas market period and again in late spring. Restaurants in this part of the city can shift hours and formats significantly between high and low season.

On the Food and Whether It Travels

Without confirmed cuisine data, Pearl cannot give a specific verdict on whether BASTARDO's food is built for takeout or delivery. As a general rule, restaurants occupying small, characterful spaces in Strasbourg's medieval core tend to prioritise the in-room experience , the tight layout, shared energy, and physical setting are part of what you are paying for. If takeout is your priority, verify directly with the venue whether off-premise options are available; the name and address positioning suggest this is a sit-down proposition first. For food-forward explorers, the in-room experience at venues like this in the Rue des Tonneliers corridor is typically where the value concentrates.

Booking and Logistics

Booking difficulty is rated Easy. That is a relative advantage in a city where the better-known tables , Au Crocodile and 1741 both require more planning , are harder to land. BASTARDO's address is walkable from Strasbourg's central cathedral and the Petite France quarter, making it a practical choice for visitors already in the city centre. No booking method is confirmed in the data, so approach via a direct visit or search for current contact details independently.

How BASTARDO Fits the Strasbourg Scene

Strasbourg has a genuinely deep restaurant culture for a city its size, anchored by Alsatian tradition but increasingly animated by creative independents. For explorers who want context: the city's dining scene ranges from the grand Alsatian formality of Au Crocodile to the creative edge of de:ja, with venues like Les Funambules and Umami occupying the modern middle ground. BASTARDO's positioning , a punchy name, a tight historic-quarter address, easy booking , reads as independent and informal rather than fine-dining. That makes it a candidate for a lower-stakes weeknight booking rather than a special-occasion splurge, though without price data that read is provisional.

For broader Strasbourg planning, Pearl's full guides cover restaurants, hotels, bars, wineries, and experiences. If your trip extends beyond Strasbourg, France's broader fine-dining circuit includes destinations like Mirazur in Menton and Flocons de Sel in Megève for those willing to travel for a table.
