3. Le Blanchot Mountain Restaurant

Location
Meribel

Le Blanchot has long been considered one of the finest restaurants in the Méribel valley, with a loyal clientele who return year after year to enjoy superior gastronomy in beautiful surroundings.

One of Méribel's top restaurants for many years, Le Blanchot is now under the new ownership of Matthieu and Delphine from Le CroMagnon, also in Méribel.

The restaurant is located above Méribel, on the road leading to the Altiport. You can ski or drive here for lunch, and on sunny days you will enjoy spectacular views from the dining terrace. At night the setting is a fairy tale, the lights of the chalet romantically twinkling in the forest. For non-skiers, it is conveniently located on the free Meribus route, or parking is provided.

The interior décor is charming, a traditional wooden chalet decorated with great care and impeccable taste, warmed by a roaring open fire. From the moment you arrive, you know you are in for a rather special experience.

Also open during the summer season with the terrace overlooking the Méribel golf course. Whatever the season you are sure of an excellent meal in delightful surroundings.

The restaurant is open from 09:00 to 17:00 daily with lunch being served from 12:00 to 16:00. We advise you to book in advance!
