Breizh Café Chamonix

Brittany in the Alps

Breizh Café is the crêpe house founded by Bertrand Larcher, which brings together the cooking of Brittany and Japan; the Chamonix branch is at 148 rue du Docteur Paccard, in the middle of the town. The wooden, chalet-style room has tables outside, under the awning. It is a good place for an uncomplicated lunch between two lifts or for a simple dinner: it is open every day from 11:00 to 22:00, with no break, and in Chamonix, where many restaurants close between services, that is welcome.

The galettes are made with organic buckwheat from Brittany with PGI status, stone-ground for nine hours, and are gluten-free. The sweet crêpes are made with wheat, also organic, and the butter comes from the Bordier house of Saint-Malo.

What to order

The Chamonix menu has a section of Haute-Savoie recipes with cheeses from the maturer Joseph Paccard: the raclette galette, with bacon, caramelised onion, scrambled egg and potato (€19), and the reblochon Breizh Roll (€22). Classic galettes run from €13.90, the one with white ham, egg and Comté, to €21; the specials, with smoked salmon, spider crab or duck breast, from €18 to €23. There are oysters from the Boutrais family and small galettes for nibbling.

For dessert, crêpes go from €6.50 for butter and sugar to €14.50 for the yuzu Suzette. The house speciality in Chamonix is the Valrhona chocolate crêpe flambéed with Chartreuse (€13.50). Prices are from the menu published in November 2026, service included.

Getting there

It is in the centre, a few minutes' walk from the church. If you arrive by car, park in one of the town's car parks and walk in.
