Great restaurant, in the middle of the ski resort. Prices are high as usual but the food is great, and personal are very friendly.

We visited Bivouac in Serre Chevalier in February 2025 for lunch on a beautiful sunny day and sat outside on the terrace. The setting was perfect – great views, fresh mountain air, and a cozy atmosphere. I had their boeuf bourguignon, which was absolutely delicious – rich, tender, and full of deep flavors. My friends had burgers, and they were just as impressed. Everything was well-prepared and served with care. A fantastic spot for a relaxed and tasty meal in the mountains. Highly recommended! 5/5

We came to the restaurant (not the self serve area) for lunch and enjoyed it. Make sure you have a reservation. I had the special which was a beef bourguignon spaghetti and it was delicious.

Amazing restaurant, great place to come for lunch or a little break after a morning of skiing. Funny staff, however it can get a bit packed when everyone has come in for a break after a day on the slopes.

Great place to have a 3 course lunch or a quick bite. The restaurant has outstanding options with an eye for detail. I highly recommend the Niagara burger or de daily changing option. The chef has an incredible way of making very special sauces. If you want to go for a quick bite at the self is perfect. My kids want to go back every day and love the kebab option. In all Quality, quantity and price are perfect tly aligned

I like the outside terrace on a sunny day and there is a very reasonably priced self service hatch, where you can get tasty paninis and admire the spectacular view

Really a good place to take a break for the little ones of the slopes... sun, snow and a warm welcome, what more could you want for a day of skiing in this corner of paradise!
