La Rioule restaurant

Rustic mountain hut full of ye olde rural charm open for lunches and snacks

featured in Restaurants Updated

Sitting pretty next to the Mont Blanc tramline, this restaurant has exceptional views across the valley.

Full of character and a warm and cosy haven on a cold winters day, this charming old mountain farmhouse serves traditional, hearty homemade cuisine. Dishes are made from regional ingredients so expect to see cheese and charcuterie featuring heavily, but if you don't want a full meal then one of their homemade desserts with a coffee is a lovely afternoon treat.

Tables and chairs are laid out on the lawn come spring and throughout summer, and the Tramway du Mont Blanc stops just outside, making it a good spot to grab a cuppa while you wait for your lift.
