The Community of Thollon

General Stores and Food Shopping

The village, as an all-year round resort, is well served with a variety of bars and restaurants which offer a wide range of foods and experiences.  The vibe is best described as quiet and relaxed, rather than the buzzing and vibrant ski resorts of Morzine or Les Gets.

Le St Nicholas Restaurant

St Nicolas is located opposite the ski station (and next to the Launderette).  It has a nice bar and an outside restaurant area. The menu is typically Savoyard and the dishes are of a high quality, famed for their steaks, they also offer a plat de jour at a reasonable price.  It can get busy during peak seasons in winter and summer. 

A Choumas

Next door to St Nicolas, A Choumas has a more casual, relaxed atmosphere with an good range of food on offer such as pizzas and ice cream.

More a place for a drink rather than a formal meal.

L'Outa

L'Outa is located on the main road just past the ski station area.  The menu is again Savoyard, including fondues. The atmosphere is 'intimate' and personal. 

Quite an old fashioned offering, very homely with a personable owner/host, more a place for a formal meal rather than a casual drink.

La Marmotte

La Marmotte is situated near to the apartment.  Their speciality is pizzas and they are very tasty and they are also available to take-away after 19.00hrs (cost from 8 Euros).  You can also eat in and they offer a small menu choice of salads as well. 
 

La P'tit Savyard (Cafe)

There is also a small cafe just down from La Marmotte. It offers take away pizzas and other 'fast-food' items as well as coffees and crepes. 

Mainly a cofee/casual drop in, but serves alcohol and also has free Wi-Fi web access provided you are buying something/drinking there.  You may be able to get a weak Wi-Fi signal from the apartment itself as the Cafe is less thana minute away from the apartment.

Hotels - Bellevue - weblink > Bellevue

The Bellevue is located midway between the lower (old) village and the upper (station) village. It has a restaurant open to non-residents. Full details can be found at their website (click above).
 

Hotels - Bon Séjour - weblink > Bon Séjour                          

The Bon Sejour is next door to the Bellevue and also offers a restaurant to non-residents.  I have stayed at this hotel in the past and the rooms are simple, but clean alpine style hotel rooms.  The restaurant is large and very welcoming from the owners/hosts and their menus are wide ranging and from what I've eaten in the past, hearty and very tasty.
 

Le Repaire de L'aigle

Le Repaire de l'Aigle is the restaurant located at the top of the cable car on the mountain range (1500m).  It has a self-service restaurant, a bar and a balcony overlooking the ski area.  It is in need of a little refurbishment but is the only source of food and hot drinks when you are skiing or hiking and it does have a good, wide menu range and fairly reasonable prices.
