Avoriaz - Les Lindarets

Fun restaurant serving Corsican food and specialities, in a magnificent setting you can eat and drink out on the terrace with live music and DJs, or get warm in the restaurant.

It's a really unique and fun atmosphere, on a street/piste full of restaurants and bars spilling out onto the snow. This restaurant really stands out, with it's large sunny terrace which is great for groups dining together, with good vibes and music. After lunch the party really starts with live DJs and dancing on the terrace and tables!

In the summer, the local farm goats are left to roam wild in the streets, and the village is aptly nicknamed 'goat village', attracting many tourists. Enjoy watching the goats cause havoc and explore the streets whilst you settling in for your your lunch and drinks. 

Excellent and fast service means you can get back on the slopes quickly if you want to.

This a a great spot for lunch, or to stop of at on your way down to Montriond at the end of the ski day, for a boogie and a drink. You can ski down to the Ardent carpark without taking any lifts.
