Refuge de Porcheres

We visited for lunch after asking the staff at our ski hire shop in Megeve where they go on the slopes to eat and drink. This place is just off the normal ski route and you’d never find it if you didn’t know where it was exactly, it’s in a cluster of about 7 chalets and the view is amazing! It has a rustic and magical feel, tiny kitchen and very limited menu but delicious food and drink nevertheless. When we arrived we double checked they took card which they don’t but said we could eat and drop the cash in the following day. We said not to worry but they insisted...does this ever happen anywhere!? Well not in England that’s for sure! Thank you Porcheres :

I know this restaurant as the Refuge de Porcherey. The name here may therefore be wrong! It is an 'off-piste ' old farmhouse high above St Nicolas de Veroce. It is family run and the food is fantastic but please book! Otherwise i think the owner and staff get nervous. It is a refuge that is also open in summer and an alternative route for the TMB. It has one of the best mountain views anywhere.

In the ski season and in summer this mountain restaurant is worth skiing/ walking to. A simple but tasty menu in stunning surroundings. Need to book as not many tables indoors and only 8 outside. Has changed hands recently but new owners friendly and meal as good as ever

We had reserved for 6 adults and 8 children. We had a large table view beautiful MontBlanc.Very good reception. original, rare and high-quality products (flower of flowers, violet and yellow cabbage, fir-free ice cream). unique day dish excellent for small and large (polenta and pork). justified price. We'll be back soon!

Medium reception, excessive price. We even asked if there was no error in the check!We will not return!
