Brasserie La Sapinière

A glimpse into the cuisine of days gone by

A chalet restaurant in authentic Aosta Valley style. A brasserie where you will find traditional dishes to share with friends. A journey into the flavors of old-time cuisine with influences from Savoyard recipes.

Imagine the glow of streetlights illuminating large snowflakes falling in muffled silence. Or the soft light of the last rays of sun bathing the peaks on summer evenings. In this atmosphere, stepping into Brasserie La Sapinière means moving from the extraordinary natural setting of Courmayeur into the warm embrace of an intimate and welcoming environment.
