"Friendly service, great spot for a quick drink and the food is fantastic. Had carbonara and pizza and definitely going to come back for the French onion soup that looked and smelled incredible.
Amazing location and views. Gets busy as it's such a good spot."
Madeleine Muir
"The perfect spot to chill in the afternoon or have lunch. Their salad was so good I don’t think I’ve ever had such a good salad in a restaurant. Their portions are definitely filling. Would highly recommend. Their servers are very welcoming and the view is amazing."

Another cosy restaurant on the slopes with magnificent views is La Plage des Neiges. You can reach it by coming down one of the green slopes from Les Jeux chairlift. On snowy days, we enjoyed hearty food in the chalet while gazing at the valley from the huge windows.
