Bighorn Bistro in Chamonix Sud is known for its homemade American-style comfort food, from stacked burgers to freshly baked desserts. You can pair your meal with a craft beer or one of their creative cocktails. With friendly service and a laid-back atmosphere, it’s a favourite with both locals and visitors, offering generous portions, warm hospitality, and a menu that consistently delivers hearty, satisfying flavours after a day on the mountain or during a relaxed evening out.
This spacious yet cosy restaurant is run by an American family who grew up skiing, climbing and running the steep slopes of the Chamonix valley.
The family originates from the North and wild west of America. The interior décor comes from Cody and Jackson Hole, Wyoming, giving the authentic feel of a rustic western ski lodge with the sophistication of a downtown gastro-pub found in the menu.
Bighorn caters to large groups, families and discerning beer and burger lovers, as well as those looking for vegetarian, vegan and healthy options amongst the cheese and meat of the French Alps! They're also happy to cater for dietary requirements, so don't hesitate to ask what they can do to suit your needs.
Sunday Brunch is a must for anyone visiting town, bringing together the most traditional brunch items including eggs benedict, huevos rancheros, freshly baked cinnamon rolls and buttermilk pancakes, all freshly home-made on the day. They also offer a loaded Bloody Mary that will cure any hangover and a fresh squeezed mimosa to share with your friends after an early ski or late lie in!
Bighorn has a draft beer list that offers every style, flavour, strength and country brew. With an ever-rotating list, there is always something new to try.
Located in Chamonix Sud with an unbeatable panoramic view of the Mont Blanc Massif mountain range, it has uninterrupted afternoon sunshine and sits in a bustling pedestrian square with neighbouring bars and restaurants within walking distance.
They are open Wednesday to Sunday.
