Location
Les Menuires

It's all about the cheese at this restaurant!

The clue is in the name and you'll find all of the local cheese based specialities here. Raclette, fondue, tartiflette, onion soup (with cheese), pasta (with cheese), cheese with more cheese on the side..... Yummy! But they also rustle up a pretty mean steak, plates of charcuterie and cold cuts, a couple of salad options (obviously with just a little bit of cheese involved...) and a great selection of desserts.  Kids will love it here too and they have their own menu to choose from.

The restaurant is small, cosy and very popular, so book your table in advance to be sure of getting in. If Wallace and Gromit came to Les Menuires, this is where they would live!

Fois gras, pigs cheeks and filet of beef are just some of the dishes that feature on the menu here, showcasing some of the quality products the Savoie region has to offer. Naturally you will also find cheesy favourites such as raclette, tartiflette and fondue and there is a tempting dessert menu that changes daily, so it is worth keeping a little bit of space for a slice of their delicious blueberry tart!

The interior is warm and welcoming with a corner fire place and lounge seating, perfect for a warm up after skiing or a  pre-dinner apéro.  The sunny terrace has stunning views of the Les Menuires valley and the helpful and friendly staff will ensure you have a memorable visit from the moment you arrive.

There is a 'pub' for après-ski and the Igloo for pizza, snacks and drinks at any time of the day so a great place for a pit stop during a gruelling ski day!
