What to order
- Look for the seasonal specials—this is where La Remise often shines
- Choose a main that highlights local ingredients
- If you’re celebrating, go for a starter + dessert as well
- Ask about wine pairing if you’re not sure what to pick
What to expect
La Remise is a step up in formality compared to most village restaurants. The farmhouse setting is part of the appeal: it feels calm, a little removed from the main street, and well suited to date nights or celebrations.
Service is typically slower and more ‘evening out’ than ‘quick meal’. Book ahead, and check current opening days/times via the restaurant directly as seasonal schedules can change.

Getting there
La Remise is just outside the main village area. If you don’t have a car, plan a taxi (especially for the return in winter evenings).
Argentière is connected to the rest of the Chamonix Valley by bus and train. If you’re staying locally, many restaurants on Rue Charlet Straton and Route du Village are walkable.
Tips for a smooth visit
- Perfect for a slower evening—don’t plan to rush back to an early start.
- Book early during holiday weeks and weekends.
- If any listings show conflicting opening information, use the restaurant’s own channels to confirm.
- Build in travel time if you’re coming from Chamonix or another village.
