About choosing a restaurant in La Plagne
There are a wide range of restaurants in La Plagne to suit all tastes and budgets. Read our guide on all the best places to eat in La Plagne and where to find your favourite style of cuisine.
Worth noting is that at lunchtime most restaurants will offer a well-priced 'Plat du Jour' (dish of the day), normally consisting of locally-sourced meat, potatoes and a salad or seasonal vegetables.
Cafes and bakeries
In resort you'll find coffee and croissants if you like an early start, or somewhere to simply grab a coffee. And as in any French village or town you're never far from a bakery serving fantastic cakes, pastries or just a morning baguette.
Child friendly restaurants
Most, if not all of the restaurants are child friendly, especially if you let them know in advance. Evening meals are normally served from 19:00, and the restaurants are quieter at this time than later on.
French restaurants
Throughout the resorts you'll easily find a French restaurant to suit both your taste buds and your budget, whether it's homemade Savoyarde specials in a cosy rustic bolthole, or a light airy modern gourmet experience with a wine list and dessert menu to die for.
