"Great position, excellent food, friendly service and when we were too tired to ski home they even drive us back to village! Merck beaucoup!"
We stopped by here 3 times for apres-ski drinks during a 5 day stay in La Clusaz. Cheesy but fun music and a nice spot in the sun drew us in. We had some rather over-priced drinks and bottles of wine, but that's mountain restaurants for you. The numerous staff seemed completely befuddled and disorganised however, though we noticed they were more alert with French customers. On our last day we had hot chocolates as we were travelling later that day. We then asked for a glass of water but were point blank refused! I should point out all other restos in La Clusaz were happy to give tap water as long as you bought something else.Left a bad taste in our mouths, and we will seek out a better apres...
We paid nearly €20 for a pint of a beer and a gin and tonic. Great views and ambience, but not €20-for-two-drinks great. We attended as part of a larger party and they cooked some pizzas for the group: my partner and I asked if they could make a vegetarian pizza without cheese (i.e. Something vegans can eat), to which the curt and somewhat rude answer was "no". Obviously it is technically *possible* to make such a pizza – we ate one in La Clusaz on the Friday night! – so either they had pre-assembled the pizzas, or they just couldn't be bothered to accommodate us. Either way, this place left a bad impression and I'd be in no rush to return.
Most amazing group lunch in here, the food, staff and wine are simply superb, what a great couple of days we had dining here. The outside bar was a must for a few cold ones and few shots on the way back down the slopes, in the late afternoon it's like a little slice of Ibiza! The tunes were absolutely banging but great fun for all the family X
Le Chalet des Praz is a brilliant location on the mountain as it is just above the town so on a nice day giving great views of the town and the rest of the mountain range. Food is excellent, service is great and is such a perfect place to have a late and lazy afternoon lunch, sitting in the sunshine then skiing back down to town.

Booked for a late lunch and had a fabulous meal. The highlights were the lamb, the scallop risotto and the burgers on our table but topped by the sizeable three puddings of the day in a set of glass stacking bowls! Friendly staff and given the heavy rain, they even organised a transfer back to our hotel - skis and all.
The burger van which sits alongside the Chalet des Praz also contains a secret weapon — a genuine feu de bois! And the pizzas they produce are simply excellent. Situated literally in the middle of the Merle piste, when the sun's out there is nothing to beat it.
This is one of the best restaurant in La Clusaz (which really does not say much). Food was in line with what you could expect. Filled you and and prepared your body for a couple of more hours of skiing. Would come back.
Delicious food - the perfect lunchtime spot. It wasn't a great day, so we ended up eating and drinking for most of the afternoon - and it was delightful. A bit of a trek up-hill from the cable car for non-skiers.

Great spot for stopping whilst skiing either for coffee or lunch with a beer . Very buzzy and an assortment of seats including comfy cushioned seats . Live DJ and music creates a real vibe . To be recommended
