A little hunger after a ski day? Here is our selection of the best restaurants to eat in Grand-Bornand.

Grand-Bornand, in Haute-Savoie, is one of the most beautiful resorts in the Alps. Nestled in the Aravis Mountains, fans of powder or dammed trails find themselves there every winter. Of course, skiing is the queen activity of the ski area but the festive and warm atmosphere of the village participates in its appeal. The greedy and greedy are not left in Grand-Bornand, which houses several dozen mouth-watering establishments. We come to drink a glass of hot wine on a terrace emmitouflaged in its combination. There you can enjoy delicious regional specialities typical of Savoyardes in secular hostels. It is also allowed to be tempted by more sophisticated dishes revisiting ancestral recipes. Whether you come solo, with family or friends, here are the best restaurants to eat in Grand-Bornand. There are for all tastes and budgets. Wishing you a pleasant tasting!

1. The Chalet Venay

What a delight! The dishes offered at Chalet Venay all agree. This authentic renovated pasture farm is one of the best restaurants to eat in Grand-Bornand. There you can enjoy a local cuisine with savoyard specialities in honour. It will be possible to taste artisanal charcuterie, reblochon farmers, fresh vegetables and exceptional white wines.

You are particularly advised, when there is one, the trout of the valley as a miller. For only €16, it would be almost criminal to deprive yourself of it!

2. Le Roc des Arces

Where to eat in Grand-Bornand when you are a gourmet and local specialties awaken our curiosity? At Roc des Arces, for example. Here, close to the slopes, a revitalizing and rustic kitchen and proposed during the winter. The sunny terrace on the slopes allows to recover by observing skiers progress more or less elegantly. Close to the Rosay cable car, it’s a welcome break.

To treat yourself, we recommend the veal head. It is a gustative sumptuousness to share without moderation.

3. L’Héliantis

In terms of cooking, it is probably what is best done in the resort. The gourmet restaurant L’Héliantis was born from the meeting between a chef and a pastry chef, both masters of their art. The tasting menu at 62 € includes a succession of refined creations with agreement met and wine.

Let yourself be tempted by the scalope of poached foie gras with cooked and raw rhubarb, artichokes and its juice reduced to balsamic. Before tasting the cheese plate selected by La Ferme de Lorette, their local partner! Ideal for a gourmet moment in love, L’Héliantis is a safe value. You'll tell us some news!

4. The Bohemia

Looking for the best restaurants to eat in Grand-Bornand? Visit the heart of the village, on the Place de la Grenette, to enjoy the beautiful terrace of Bohemia. A simple kitchen, neat dishes, a small onion service and a sublime view of the Aravis chain. The dishes are excellent value for money.

We, we have a little weak on the generous tartiflette and burgers, accompanied why not a white beer. Ideal to recover from a morning spent to zebra the tracks, what do you think?

5. Auberge du Croix

A heartburn, a real one: eating in the Grand-Bornand in an 18th century alpine chalet held by mountain cuisine enthusiasts, is it tempting you? These are the descendants of the first owners of the chalet. Here we stay with the family, and it’s so much better! Perfectly restored, the hotel enjoys a magnificent view of the Aravis.

Specialties? The terrine of lentils with foie gras and its gingerbread, the diot (local sausage) braised to the fir branch... Or the potato donuts of the meme Fernande, whose recipe dates back to the end of the 19th century. Otherwise, the fondue with the four cheeses, offered at €25, will put everyone in agreement.

6. The Optraken

L’ op traken is a fast movement to fold the legs in the passage of a bump, to ski. It allows to amortize the relief and avoid taking off in a timeless way... What we offer, however, is to land in this gourmet bistro offering tapas, apéros conviviaux and a large selection of beers, cocktails and rums arranged. Hot wine is high in the art class!

To pick up, the tuna ceviche with citrus and sesame with its crushed sweet potatoes is legendary. The plates to share are all more succulent to each other...

7. The Panoramic 1800

Are you at the top of the Floria chairlift? In this case, put your skis and come and drink on the sunny terrace of the Panoramic 1800. With a panoramic view of the valley, you can enjoy a dish of the day carefully cooked. Grills, fresh pasta and home desserts are on the map.

Far from the restaurants for tourists offering frozen fades and salted additions, here we really enjoy. Our advice? The cute pork net and its sweet honey and thyme sauce. Killing!

8. Chez Mado

Among the best restaurants where to eat in Grand-Bornand, Chez Mado, a warm altitude hostel, stands out for the quality of its products. Winter as summer, its view of the surrounding mountains sublimates a gourmet and affordable map. Diots are a treat, especially if they precede the ice with the genepi and the pies houses. The blueberry girl is a wonder!

The Sense Confins is a famous restaurant. Opened in October 2009, its decoration combines old wood, stones and contemporary look. The flames in the fireplace add to the authentic and warm side! The Confins des Sens offers gourmet and worked cuisine. For example, the discovery menu at 49 € or the gourmet menu at 66 € will ensure a tasty trip.
