L'Etale Restaurant, Morzine restaurant terrasse

1. L'Etale Restaurant

Location
Morzine

Located near the Pleney lift and l’Opera nightclub, L’Etale is reputed to be one of Morzine's best restaurants, serving great food at a reasonable price. It's a versatile restaurant for families and groups, although in high season if you’re in a large group it’s definitely worth booking ahead as it does get very busy.

L'Etale offers a wide variety of delicious dishes including local specialities such as fondue, raclette and hot stone cooked dishes, they have a "butcher's specialties" menu, omelettes and pastas as well as "world" and "wok" cuisine, and after all that their delicious sundaes and dessert menu is worth leaving room for.

The restaurant is open in the summer and winter seasons with continuous service from 11:00 - 00:00 but good idea to book a table in advance!

La Grange Restaurant, Morzine interior

2. La Grange Restaurant

Location
Morzine

La Grange Restaurant is hidden down a little back road, less than 100 metres from the tourist office in the centre of Morzine, and only 100 metres from the bottom of the Pleney, making it a great alternative to eating up the mountain.

The inside of the building is gorgeous - traditional mountain decor in old wood and barn style equipment around the walls.

The owners have decided to leave plenty of space between the tables which I guess is one of the reasons it makes it popular with families and mothers with buggies who lunch here together with a good smattering of locals.

The menu is local Savoyarde with tasty alternatives to appease kids and fussy eaters. You've even got veggie options, which is rare for the carnivore nation that is France!

The Grange is open during the summer and winter season for lunch and dinner - booking is advisable.

Plus they offer a private catering service, so you can enjoy all their great food in the comfort of your own home!

Booking is recommended.

3. La Rotonde Restaurant

Location
Morzine

Inside and out La Rotonde is the picture of classic alpine chic, wood and stone clad and with alpine decorations it gives a rustic cosy mountain feel. The restaurant offers three dining areas inside, plus a large terrace - covered and heated in the winter and bathed in sun in the summer, as well as a garden available in the summer. This restaurant offers a wonderful mix of tradition and modernity, and offers an extensive menu of à la carte dishes as well as a dedicated pizza menu available to eat in or take away.

Despite it's mountain feel, the restaurant offers far more than the traditional Savoyarde fare. Of course, the usual fondue and tartiflette are on the menu, as well as French classics, but you'll also find a wide selection of international dishes such as thai beef salad, poke bowl, tuna tataki, and Indian peanut butter chicken. There is also a good offering of vegetarian dishes, as well as a dedicated pizza menu.

If you like your wine you won't be disappointed - the huge wine list features a wide selection from across France, as well as some international options. 

For large groups this restaurant is a great choice, with plenty space and different dining areas which can give a semi-privatised feel.

Open for lunch and dinner every day in winter and summer.

4. La Terrasse Des Lindarets Restaurant

Location
Avoriaz - Les Lindarets

Fun restaurant serving Corsican food and specialities, in a magnificent setting you can eat and drink out on the terrace with live music and DJs, or get warm in the restaurant.

The restaurant is on the slope that runs through the adorable and quaint village of Les Lindarets, which runs down to the Ardent telecabine. It's a really unique and fun atmosphere, on a street/piste full of restaurants and bars spilling out onto the snow. This restaurant really stands out, with it's large sunny terrace which is great for groups dining together, with good vibes and music. After lunch the party really starts with live DJs and dancing on the terrace and tables!

In the summer, the local farm goats are left to roam wild in the streets, and the village is aptly nicknamed 'goat village', attracting many tourists. Enjoy watching the goats cause havoc and explore the streets whilst you settling in for your your lunch and drinks. 

Excellent and fast service means you can get back on the slopes quickly if you want to. 

On the menu you'll find a varied selection, with Corsican specialities and fish dishes inspired by the owner David,  as well as some traditional Savoyarde plates, steaks, salads, burgers, pastas - something to please everyone! Finish of with a delicious tart or cafe gourmand (a selection of mini-deserts), and wash it down with a Genepy digestif! 

This a a great spot for lunch, or to stop of at on your way down to Montriond at the end of the ski day, for a boogie and a drink. You can ski down to the Ardent carpark without taking any lifts.

Open in summer and winter.

5. La Fruitière des Perrières Restaurant

Location
Les Gets

La Fruitière des Perrières was created at the start of the 20th Century and has been producing and selling local cheeses ever since. In 1992 the old cellar was transformed into a restaurant, run by the same family who has owned the premises since the 1950s.

This lovely local family-run restaurant is a real hidden gem, serving only local produce and served with love. Dinner here will be an experience unlike no other, full of authentic alpine charm set within the cellars where the cheese would have once been left to mature.

Cheeses produced onsite include Abondance, Tomme des Gets, Raclette, Saveur des Gets, as well as yoghurts and cream cheeses. These form a key part of the restaurant menu, with local specialities including fondue, raclette and Berthoud (grandmother's oven-baked Abondance recipe), all homemade of course!

After all the cheese, finish with a light ice cream dessert or a speciality meringue.

The restaurant is open in summer and winter only in the evenings. Closed on Sundays.

On site you'll also find the shop selling their cheeses as well as other local regional produce and they have an on line shop. You can take guided tours around the fromagerie too on a Wednesday morning by reservation.
