The vibrant resort of Chamonix-Mont Blanc offers many
delights both on and off the mountain; not least of these is its huge range of
fantastic restaurants! From local cuisine to beautifully crafted sushi,
whatever your tastes you will be able to find the perfect restaurant. We’ve
listed some of our favourites here.
In the resort
Le Bistrot
This chic, metropolitan restaurant on the Avenue de
l’Aiguille du Midi, is a refreshing change from the typical Alpine-style
restaurants in many ski resorts. Recently earning its first Michelin star, this
elegant restaurant serves beautifully crafted and delicately perfumed food with
clean flavours and the best ingredients, along with a particularly interesting
wine list.
Albert Premier
This stunning gem on the road out of town towards
Switzerland is one of the world’s best ski resort restaurants. With two
Michelin stars, Albert Premier sets the gastronomic benchmark for the region.
With classic recipes interpreted with finesse and a wine cellar with over
19,000 bottles, visiting this world-class restaurant is a must for those
wanting to enjoy the finest food the Alps has to offer.
Cap Horn
An unusual find in the mountains; Cap Horn is a nautically
themed chalet specialising in seafood. On one side there is a sushi restaurant,
and on the other a seafood restaurant, while downstairs a decadent wine bar
completes the picture. Based on the Rue des Moulins in downtown Chamonix, this
gem serves tasty, light food in a relaxed atmosphere.
On the mountain
Bergerie, Brévent
Chamonix’s haute cuisine option on the mountain, Bergerie, has a
splendid setting and is accessible both from the piste and telecabine. The chef
services a regional menu cooked over a wood fire, which is visible from the
dining room, so you can watch how your food is cooked, or soak up the sun and
enjoy a magnificent view of the Mont Blanc mountain range from the south facing
terrace.
Plan Joran
This lovely mid-mountain restaurant is located at the top of the
Plan Joran chair lift, and is perfect for an extravagant lunch stop. Using
fresh ingredients from the local markets, the chef Franco produces classic
Savoyarde dishes, as well as casseroles and a la carte options. Choose from
relaxing on a terrace with fantastic views or the more traditional dining room
decorated in an authentic local style.
