Le Refuge du Calvaire

We’ve dined in most of the best restaurants in Megeve town and so we felt it was time to try somewhere different; and the Refuge du Calvaire a 10-minute walk up to a small hamlet on the edge of town fitted the bill perfectly.

We enjoyed a lovely meal at this wonderful french resturant just up the hill from Megeve resort. Pre booked. This small family owned place was warm, comfortable and traditionally decorated. Madame greets you with a warm smile and helps English with limited french make their way through the menu. The service unhurried and friendly. The food so good. We enjoyed pate for starters with veal, pork and lamb mains all beautifully cooked and so good. Wines are delicious and locally sourced. the deserts choc mouse and fondants served with naughty creame and ice creames laced with local spirits. A lovely way to spend the evening. Lovely location, food and the very best in authentic french hospitality....

The two of us started off with one starter each and kept on with a raclette to share. The whole dinner was really good, we got pretty surprised with the starter and then the raclette didn’t let us down (and far from it). We couldn’t make it to the dessert due to the large quantities, but we definitely recommend it for anyone around Megève.

Fantastic place and a must every time we are in Megève, but although food quality is still very good, we miss the old menu that was more traditional. I'd better.
