In Valmeinier 1800, in the Maurienne valley (Savoie), shops and restaurants are right next to the 4-star residence Les Hauts de Valmeinier.
Eating well, at the foot of the residence
One of the great comforts of a stay in Valmeinier 1800 is having restaurants and shops right on the doorstep. You ski straight from the residence during the day, and in the evening you reach your table within a few minutes, without taking the car or the shuttle. A valuable advantage in winter, with children worn out by a day on the snow, or simply when the craving for a good meal comes before anything else.
Savoyard cuisine takes pride of place here — raclette, fondue, tartiflette and other mountain dishes are part of the resort’s DNA! But the local addresses also know how to vary the pleasures, from burgers to pizza by way of crêpes and artisan ice cream. Here is our selection right next to Les Hauts de Valmeinier.
Les Frangines & Fils — the everyday address, a 1-minute walk away
It’s impossible to be any closer: Les Frangines & Fils sits at the foot of the residence. It’s the address you naturally come back to, evening after evening, for its simple, quality cooking and its warm atmosphere, just as pleasant with family as with friends.
The menu is deliberately broad, to please everyone around the table:
- traditional Savoyard dishes, starting with a convivial raclette to share, a must after a day’s skiing;
- burgers, salads and meats, to vary the pleasures;
- for the sweet tooth, homemade crêpes with homemade fillings, waffles, and “Glaces des Alpes” artisan ice cream.
Two house specialities are worth the trip in their own right: the mountain mojito with Valmeinier blueberries, a local touch to savour, and the little Mont Revard moelleux, to end the meal on a sweet note. A safe bet, just steps from your apartment.
L’Élan — Savoie in an authentic chalet setting
A few steps away, L’Élan charms you first with its decor: beams and panelling of weathered wood, cowbells lined up along the wall, hanging copperware and old milk churns create a Savoyard chalet atmosphere full of character, especially warm after nightfall. The setting immediately sets the tone for a true mountain evening.
On the plate, the house showcases refined Savoyard specialities, foremost among them a Savoyard fondue to savour at leisure: to be chosen plain, in the great tradition, or with cèpes for a more fragrant and indulgent version. It’s the address to book when you feel like a more relaxed dinner, an evening that takes its time and celebrates the Savoyard table.
Pizza Rock — easygoing pizza, no fuss
On some evenings, you simply want a good pizza to share. Pizza Rock answers that wish in the resort: the ideal option for a laid-back dinner, or after a long day on the slopes when you’re looking for a simple, convivial meal.
Shopping on the spot: the Carrefour Montagne, right opposite
For breakfasts, aperitifs or meals prepared in the apartment, there’s no need to go far: a Carrefour Montagne is located right opposite the residence. An easy way to top up your provisions at any time during your stay, without taking the car again. Perfect for alternating between dinners out and cosy evenings in your apartment.
Good food is part of the stay
In Valmeinier 1800, enjoying good food is part of the overall pleasure of the stay: skiing from the foot of the residence, the comfort of 4-star accommodation, and gourmet tables just a few minutes’ walk away. You shape your winter according to your cravings — a comforting raclette, a characterful fondue or a pizza to share. Discover the resort, the residence’s services and plan your stay.
