Location
Aime La Plagne

Easy to get to on skis, snowboard, or on foot.

On good weather days you can bask in the sun on the south-facing terrace. Why not grab a deckchair for a post-lunch snooze? At an altitude of 2,500m, the view is exceptional. There is also a cosy dining room with a log fire for days when the weather is more wintery.

The menu offers plenty of options: lighter dishes such as salads and omelettes, or heartier fare such as grilled meats, burgers, tartiflette and other Savoyard specialities. There are also tempting desserts and a children's menu.

They are open seven days a week throughout the winter season, open evenings on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Cosy atmosphere in this wooden ski chalet serving local dishes in front of a roaring log fire

Location
Plagne Villages

It is recommended by locals for its hearty Savoyard dishes and meats grilled over the open fireplace.

It’s well known across the resort for its excellent food and warm, cosy ambience. In particular, the cheese fondue here is delicious and the staff are always welcoming and friendly. Located at the foot of the Plagne Village ski slopes, this restaurant is specialised in raclette, Savoyard fondue with Beaufort cheese, tartiflette and cold meats. They also serve selected meat cuts grilled over the open fire and there is a children's menu. Their wine list is extensive and includes local Savoy wines, as well a selection from Côtes du Rhone, Burgundy and Bordeaux.

Plagne Villages is probably the quietest of all the La Plagne satellites, so this restaurant can get surprisingly busy, particularly in the early evening as there’s really not much else by way of places to go in Villages.

Open in winter from 11:30 to 14:00 and from 18:00 to 22:00. Booking in advance is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
