Raclette on home ground, at the foot of the slopes

In the Alps, raclette isn’t a dish: it’s a way of life, ideally with ski boots on. After a day on the slopes, nothing beats a sizzling wheel of cheese and potatoes in their jackets. We’ve kept the places that list raclette on their own website, from the high-altitude resort to the old-town bistro.

Most of these restaurants follow the seasons: in the resorts, many only open in winter, and evening tables go fast. Book ahead, especially during the school holidays. The rest of the year, Annecy and Chambéry serve raclette in town.

1. Chez Pépé Nicolas, Val Thorens: raclette with house-made cheese

On the road to Val Thorens, Chez Pépé Nicolas is a Savoyard restaurant with its own YouTube channel. What sets it apart is rare: according to its website, “all our raclette cheeses are made on site”. You choose between cow’s milk raclette and a half goat, half cow version, and a “chef’s raclette” completes the menu. Our take: a raclette that hasn’t travelled many miles before landing on your plate.

2. La Fondue, Val Thorens: three raclettes in the heart of the resort

La Fondue is the Savoyard restaurant of the Hôtel Le Val Thorens, on place de l’Église. Its menu offers three raclettes: the classic made with raw-milk Savoie cheese, a smoked raclette and a “raclette of the moment”. Fondue and tartiflette round out the menu, as they should at altitude. Our take: the handy choice for anyone staying in the centre of the resort who doesn’t want to put their ski boots back on.

6. Le Fréti, Annecy: raclette by the half-wheel

Le Fréti, on rue Sainte-Claire, is Annecy’s go-to address for raclette by the wheel. Its website presents “our raclettes by the wheel”, and its Instagram account shows the half-wheel served at the table, a farmhouse Raclette de Savoie PGI. Our take: a half-wheel to scrape yourself, among the arcades of the old town. The winter menu, available as a PDF on the website, gives the prices.
