Restaurant Reviews in Meribel

A couple of weeks ago I sat down and had a long hard think about burgers. I thought about good burgers (no, not the 1997 Nickelodeon side splitter starring Kenan and Kel) and I thought about bad burgers and I put together a list of some of my favourites in Meribel.

This is a really popular hang-out spot and a real hidden gem. If you come for lunch, you may well be tempted into staying for apres and spend a fair few more hours here than you originally planned!

Last week my non-skiing parents came out to resort to visit. This was a nice excuse to try out many of the activities other than skiing on offer in the 3 Valleys. We went luging, on the ESF Snake Gliss, attended the ESF Snow and Fire show in Courchevel and enjoyed an après session at the Rond Point among other things.

What a shame - is the resounding feeling I'm left with after having stopped here for lunch with a colleague. It's in a great location, right at the bottom of the Chaudanne, but the ambience, decor and poor quality of food here really lets it down.

The restaurant of the Auberge de Savoie goes hand in hand with the charming boutique hotel situated in Moutiers, just down the road from Meribel.

Indulge in the authentic tastes of India at one of Meribel's newest urban restaurants, Tsaretta Spice. Just five minutes drive from Meribel Centre, the restaurant is located in 1600 and offers a new and niche alternative to French cuisine.

The Den in Meribel is reminiscent of a classy English pub, offering great sharing platters and a wide selection of amazing craft beers including Brewdog.

Evolution Café, Bar and Brasserie is all of the above and more! Located in a prime spot by the Chaudanne in Meribel, Evolution offers something for everyone.

The Folie Douce is known for being the biggest party destination on the piste and a fantastic viewing extravaganza, however, it’s not just famed for its epic apres ski parties, there is also an outstanding restaurant with a menu that offers locally produced delicacies and a wealth of Savoyard specialities.

The Helios Hotel and Spa in Meribel is not particularly well known as a lunchtime eating spot, but it should be!

La Taverne is a rustic venue located in the very heart of Meribel and is both a busy pub and nightlife hotspot upstairs with a classy dining experience downstairs.

Chez Pepe Nicholas is located on the main road just past Les Menuires and before the road starts climbing up to Val Thorens and we couldn’t have picked a snowier night to try out the evening restaurant last week.

Evolution Café Bar/Brasserie can be found near la Chaudanne. Whereas the resort abounds in restaurants serving local and French food, modern, innovative cooking is thin on the ground. Evolution cleverly meets a local need for top quality, modern international cuisine.

La Taiga is a popular restaurant and bar in La Tania that serves both traditional Savoyard and modern French cuisine. It is the sister restaurant to Pub Le Ski Lodge, offering a more sophisticated food and cocktail menu.

On a snowy evening in Méribel we took a short bus ride down to Meribel Village to La Terrasse du Village restaurant. The restaurant is part of the infamous après-ski venue, Lodge Du village and the classy dining counterpart.
