Best restaurants around St Martin de Belleville: Lunching piste-side top
Maya Altitude – lunch with a panoramic view
A fabulous addition to the mountain restaurant collection, Maya Altitude is definitely a place to try. Boasting a 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding mountains from a sunny terrace, the setting alone is enough to draw skiers in. What keeps them coming back though, is the high-end, brasserie-style menu designed by Christopher Dupuy and Stephanie Deprez- think a modern take on traditional French favourites.
Even on the days when the weather might not allow for lunch on the terrace, you’ll still be wowed by the interior, which is unlike any other restaurant in the 3 Valleys. The word ‘funky’ comes to mind here- bright colours, bold prints but with a bit of alpine wood thrown in there for good measure. If St Martin was waiting for its next ‘trendy’ spot to come along, it may have just found it…

Le Corbeleys – A drink or a bite to eat close to home
For a traditional, Savoyard meal or hot drink, look no further than Le Corbeleys. With its stunning outdoor terrace, and authentic, cosy interior, it offers a great setting close to home. Just at the top of St Martin 1, it is a short lift ride up so even a possibility for non-skiers- and a short ski home again.
It’s a family-run business with fantastic service and delicious food. Our best tip: don’t skip dessert!
