Le Petit Danois Bar, Val d'Isère

Après-ski bar with pool tables and pub style restaurant with a reputation for some serious partying

featured in Bars & clubs Updated 3 November 2023

Le Petit Danois is one of Val's most reputed drinking establishments, interestingly providing both the illness and the medicine.

During the evenings the bar really comes alive with a huge après-ski party, bar games and pool. All of this encouraged by the mad Scandi bar staff who really know how to throw a party, fuelled by the dangerously potent Red Eric beer. The next morning and throughout the daytime the place serves as a hangover nurturing centre, where the best known cure - a Full English Breakfast with large tea or coffee - can just about bring you back to life.

Apart from the serious partying which goes on, this bar offers some other useful services. During bad weather why not head down there for a game of backgammon or have a go on the pool tables. The restaurant is open from 09:30 to 22:00 and offers mainly fast food, fry-ups and enough calories to keep you alive for both more parties and some serious snow sports.

Open from 09:30 to 02:00 daily in winter

Happy Hour: 16:00 - 17:00 and 21:00 - 22:00 with 2-for-1 on beers and drinks every day

Après-ski has live music daily with different bands throughout the week and a free shot with every drink from 17:00. The DJ starts at 22:00.
