Location
Meribel

La Taverne, affectionately known as The Tav, is a visitor and local favourite in Méribel, perfectly capturing the spirit of a cosy alpine pub. With its quirky wood-clad interior and instantly warming atmosphere, it’s a place where everyone feels at home. A standout bistro-style menu is served all day, making it ideal for a morning coffee, a casual snack, or a generous lunch.

Food lovers will delight in the Tav’s offerings: a kid’s menu, gourmet burgers, daily vegetarian specials, and modern bistro twists on local alpine dishes ensure there’s something for every taste. In the evening, the intimate bistro invites guests to indulge in delicious dinners, from signature dishes to hearty steaks and classic cheesy Savoyard fondue on Sundays.

The lively bar buzzes with energy, featuring live music nights and screenings of top sports events. Guests can enjoy a draft beer on the terrace, catch up on emails with Wi-Fi, or simply soak up the convivial atmosphere that has made The Tav a Méribel institution.

With a well-stocked bar, curated wine list, and cosy yet playful vibe, La Taverne is the perfect spot to unwind after a day on the slopes. Affordable rooms just steps from the piste make it a complete alpine experience.
