Best Vegetarian and Vegan Restaurants in Val d'Isere

Finding vegetarian and vegan options in Val d'Isère used to be a challenge, with goat's cheese salad or cheese fondue often being the only choices and nothing to offer for those seeking plant-based dishes. Thankfully, times have changed and most restaurants now offer a wider variety of vegetarian and vegan dishes.

For a truly tailored experience, it’s a good idea to call ahead and ask if there are any vegan options available that aren't listed on the menu. During busy periods, please contact our Concierge Team to secure a reservation at your preferred restaurant.
