Well located by the ski slope, this restaurant focuses on pizzas. Food is decent and prices are average for such location. Staff was pretty friendly overall!

We only stopped by for drinks, but certainly wish we'd booked in advance for food- we were only on a 4 day trip. Drinks were great and well priced for the location, staff were quick and really friendly- even offering us a Genepi despite us only popping in for a quick drink. If we return to LC we will be certain to book in for food!!

Delicious pizza and amazing goat cheese salad! My wife and I loved it and would go back. It's a bit expensive but being right on the mountain that is to be expected. Great service and great food!

Best place to stop off for a bite to eat. Went there everyday during our week holiday and it didn't disappoint once.

Great location! We could sit back and have our hot drinks and food while still watching the kids on the slopes. Food wasn't bad - had a delicious pasta and pizza. Facilities were large with a comfortable changing station for baby. Staff were friendly and spoke English, which was helpful.
