Where to eat Lunch+Pee in SJPdP ?

[aname4me]

Next week I will be arriving at SJPdP on the Bus at 11:45am and have booked Orrison for that night.

I don't remember SJPdP having a Bus Terminal.... they just park outside the city walls.

Can anyone suggest a place to both pick up a quick Lunch (sandwich) and use their washroom ?

You'll find plenty of places right on the main street after you check in at the Pilgrim Office, and they're all good!

There are a couple of boulangeries in town (one near rthe Porte Espagne on the Camino) although I cannot remember if they had toilets. There are public toilets in town, right by the roundabout and city walls if I recall correctly.

SJPDP is full of tempting stops

I also arrive at SJPD at 11.45 with the bus from Pamplona on 25/9, aiming to leave for Orisson asap upon arrival. However, the Pilgrim Office is closed between 12 and 1.30. What would be the best place to get a stamp near Place Floquet, where the buses arrive?

Personally I’d wait for the Pilgrims Office...have lunch, mill around, feel the energy - it’s no more than 2 hrs up to Orisson so (assuming you have a booking) there’s no real rush.
However...I’m sure you can get one at the Tourist Information Office
Buen Camino

I agree with Rich. SJPdP is a beautiful town and it is a steep but short walk to Orisson.

Buen camino!

Thx Rich and Mike, I might indeed regret later not taking the time at SJPDP. So I will follow your advice!

It’s worth a couple of hours in St Jean just to decompress, calm down and enjoy being there.

You couldn't throw a rock in St Jean without hitting someone with a sello.

Via con Dios.

You can also get a stamp at the tourist information office.
