Face West Cafe Restaurant Review

Good Range of Dishes to Choose From, Right on the Front de Neige

Quality restaurant with perfectly cooked dishes & views of the snow park

If that's not entertaining enough, then there is an air bag in front of the restaurant, tempting lots of skiers and boarders to try out some daring freestyle moves. Consequently, on good weather days, the majority of their cliental choose to seat themselves on the sunny terrace for their meals, where they can sit back and enjoy the action whilst soaking up the sun. However, if you prefer to sit inside, the stylish interior is very inviting with stone walls and a warm log fire.

The restaurant has an extensive menu offering a good range meat and fish dishes and pizzas. I opted for the Lamb ribs with gravy, served with roasted new potatoes and salad. It was excellent! Perfectly cooked pink ribs, full of flavour and good crispy, salty new roasted all served nice and hot. The perfect way to warm yourself up after a chilly morning on the mountain.

Although the Face West Cafe is in the higher price range of the restaurants on the Front de Neige, it is worth every penny. It is hard to rival the quality of the food or the service. There were plenty of staff on hand to attend to us. I would strongly recommend you take the time to stop off at this mountain restaurant.
