Les Arcs is not as expensive as other French resorts, but when it comes to food, still expect to pay mountain prices. There are plenty of charming places to eat, though fewer places to really splash out than in some of the flashier resorts. If you are on a budget, try one of the creperies or pizzerias, or one of the fixed-price menus. The range of options on the mountain is excellent. Most restaurants are self-service, but if it is a sit-down meal that you are after, there are plenty of places serving up rustic Savoyard cuisine.The variety of restaurants available depends on which village you are in, but since transport between villages is pretty good, you needn't be restricted by where you are staying. The funicular from Bourg St Maurice runs every 20 minutes until 10pm Sunday to Thursday, and until 11pm on Friday and Saturday. Les Arc 1800, with 30 restaurants and many bars, is the village with the most variety of nightlife, but all the villages have some choice of where to eat and drink.
Casa Mia (1800):
Good Italian fare at reasonable prices in a rustic setting with friendly service and a decent, though pricey, wine list.
Bar Mont Blanc (Vallandry):
On the piste in Vallandry, they serve good value, big portions from Thai to Indian, local specialities to bangers and mash and a piste-side snack shack for your lard related needs.
Jungle cafe (Les Villards):
With its funky jungle decor and pumping beats, it’s a friendly spot where the cocktails, music and atmosphere may keep you out long past bed time!
Chez Eux (2000):
This place gets our vote for the excellent Savoyard meals.
Triangle Noir (1800):
Good food and great service come as standard here.
