Fire and Ice - Courchevel

Lovely sun trap terrace with sofas and rugs. Pleasant service and just drinks ok. Busy place in season but we'll run.

This is a great apres ski spot just at the foot of Ariondaz as you ski in to 1650.Probably best getting there slightly early to get a sofa or table in the sun. We were lucky enough to get seats in the sofa area with gorgeous fur rugs and soaked up the afternoon sun.The drinks came quickly. The gin and tonics were served in gorgeous crystal glasses.Lovely atmosphere, cool music, happy hour from 4.30 - 5.30pm. Bonus!

We where recommended Cucina agelina for lunch by our chalet and thought we couldn't go wrong considering it is one of Angela hartnetts restaurants , great location and lovely design , but I must say the food didn't live up to expectations, we ordered 2 main dishes and I must say they where like starter size, mine the roast lamb shoulder was very tasty but just not enough of it and my girlfriends sea food soup which the waiter recommended was totally disappointing very small with a few pieces of seafood in a pretty plain broth with a really big chunk of bread in it to beef the size up..!! Hence we where still hungry so we ordered another main of pasta which was tasty but come Angela should should 2 people have to order 3 mains for lunch especially when your paying 23/24 euros a dish ..?? This was the only disappointing lunch we had during our 5 day 3 valleys trip which was a shame as the restaurant is beautiful..... but at the end of the day the food has to deliver and sadly it didn't..!!!

We booked a table for 11 of us for lunch so we could meet up with friends. We arrived on time but our table took over three quarters of an hour to be ready. When the food arrived it was good and I would thoroughly recommend the Pizzas but if you want a timely lunch then our experience suggests this is not the place.

We stopped here a few times on our trip once for lunch and other times for drinks.The restaurant is part of a hotel. Lots of comfortable sofas outside , with warm throws and fire pits. It does get busy so make sure you book.A party of six had lunch and all dishes were great. The mushrooms on toast to start was lovely. Burgers and pizza were our mains. Portion sizes are big so ensure you are hungry. House wine is really good. We also had an excellent hot chocolate with cream.There is a great atmosphere and it's also a good place for après ski drinks. A great option for those in 1650.
