(+33 (0)4 79 00 11 71)
Le Bateau Ivre
Right next to Le Chabichou, this restaurant at the Pomme de Pin Hotel has two Michelin stars and the best views of the slopes. Be sure to order one of the daintily presented desserts.
Rue des Chenus 73120 Saint-Bon-Tarentaise, Courchevel 1850
(+33 (0)4 79 08 00 55)
Le Chabichou
Courchevel 1850 is the only place in the Alps where you’ll find a pair of two-Michelin-star restaurants right next to each other. The gastronomically spectacular Le Chabichou boasts an excellent fusion menu created by chef Michel Rochedy.
Rue des Chenus, 73121 Courchevel 1850
(+33 (0)4 79 08 80 34)
Le Farçon
This restaurant in La Tania has a mere one Michelin star – oh dear. The eight-course tasting menu is excellent. Try the innovative white chocolate soup with lime and green pepper.
La Tania, Courchevel
(+33 (0)4 79 08 08 63)
Le Genépi
The only thing this restaurant lacks is a terrace. Never mind, the excellent classic French food on offer more than makes up for it. Food is served on snowflake-patterned plates, and the crackling fire dispels the winter chill.
Le Genépi, Rue Park City, Courchevel 1850
(+33 (0)4 79 08 01 47)
Le Portetta
Delicious modern Savoie cuisine (featuring a dairy herd's worth of cheese) is served in the restaurant of Smith-approved hotel La Portetta. Seasonal menus make the most of local produce and the biggest terrace in town overlooks the glittering valleys.
Rue du Marquis, Courchevel 1650 Saint Bon Tarentaise, Courchevel, 73120
(+33 (0)4 79 08 27 44)
Restaurant Le Tremplin
Set in a warm lodge, this informal and friendly restaurant is great for crêpes in the afternoon and fondue in the evening.
Place du Tremplin, Courchevel 1850

La Grange
Predictably glitzy, packed in the early hours, and with a Moroccan theme, La Grange is a respected stalwart of the Courchevel clubbing calendar.
Rue Park City, 73120 Courchevel 1850
(+33 (0)4 79 08 12 74)
Les Caves de Courchevel
Up at 1850, high rollers tend to head for this energetic nightspot, open from 11pm–5am and consequently a favourite for night owls.
Immeuble Porte de Courchevel, Rue des Tovets 73120, Courchevel 1850
