Restaurant Reviews in Meribel

Picture this: a long day on the mountain, its been snowing all day and have you’ve had a beer or two at après on the mountain but you’re not quite ready to go home yet. What’s the next logical step?

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!

La Table du Ruitor restaurant is, in fact, three different restaurants. Depending on your preference and budget you can enjoy hearty local dishes at the ‘Coin Savoyard’; brasserie-style dishes taken either on the terrace overlooking the pistes or indoors; or yet more refined cuisine from Chef Christian Farenasso in the gastronomic restaurant.

This restaurant has long been a firm favourite with Méribel’s British visitors thanks to its fantastic location, reliably good food and invariably friendly service. It also boasts one of Méribel’s best piste-side, sunny dining terraces with great views over the valley. Sadly, on the day we visited the Rond Point, clouds were shrouding the valley, so instead of sunning ourselves outdoors we ate in the cosy, wooden restaurant under the eaves of the first floor. The service here is always excellent: the young and enthusiastic British staff were very friendly, and all is efficiently overseen by the Manager, Justin.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A great spot that's popular with the locals, this restaurant is just on the outskirts of town and has a rustic charm about it. It serves a good selection of well presented home-cooked meals which are good value for money.

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.

It may be cold outside as the snow falls this February but there’s no excuse to stay indoors and miss out on experiencing one of Mottaret’s best venues.

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.

With seating for up to 30 people in traditional, rustic surroundings, this is a great spot in the centre of Meribel for a tasty and reasonably priced lunch.
