"At the top of the Chenus gondola, this place had an amazing large sunny terrace and served good simple food. For Courchevel, it was relatively good value too."
We were a group of 3 for lunch in the sun in Courchevel 1850. This area is not cheap but Chenus is one of the more reasonable in 1850. It used to be self service but is now full waiter service and very popular. The terrace was packed on this sunny afternoon but lucky we had booked a table for 2pm. Best to always reserve as many people were waiting for a table. All 3 meals were perfect and cooked on the inside log fire. The desserts were also fabulous. One of our guys is a chef and he was most impressed. Expect about 40 -50 per head 2 courses with some nice wine. For Courchevel this is quite reasonable. The terrace here is really superb so well recommended for a long relaxed lunch.
Overall, a lovely experience with fantastic food and service. Would've been a 5 star review if we hadn't waited so long at the entrance without acknowledgement before being seated, but the food and staff certainly made up for the wait! The restaurant is located just at the top of the Chenus chairlift and benefits from incredible views, especially on a sunny day! An impromptu air show and a magician operating on the terrace were added bonuses to our visit. Thank you for a lovely leisurely lunch!
We visited in a big group and with it being peak season service was not surprisingly a little chaotic . However the food was good and definitely something for all ages . Noteworthy dishes included the plat du jour -veal in a tomato sauce , goats cheese salad and chicken and beef brochettes .As Courchevel mountain restaurants go ,Les Chenus is relatively good value all the more so given the stunning views from the outdoor seating area . Recommended and do book in advance .
At the top of the Chenus lift this is a great place to stop for a relaxing lunch with views across Courchevel. Very good service with plenty to choose from on the menu. Food was excellent and plenty of it, just what is needed whilst out skiing on the mountain. From the restaurant you have good access after or before lunch to La Tania, Meribel and of course Courchevel. Great lunch.

We found this on our first day skiing and used it as a Base throughout the holiday. Situated the top of the bubble lift so everyone can get there walking or skiing it serves all whether you want a few drinks or a meal.Price is very reasonable and views are amazing. Excellent furnishing inside and out.Lucas the waiter is brilliant and was always attentive.
Stopped here a few times for a drink when we got off the chenus gondola. It is lovely with beUtiful views from the terrace area. We only had drinks, lovely hot chocolates with whipped cream, delicious.The restaurant looked stunning and or was very clean and the staff were good.
The location is the best selling point - unrivalled views. We had French onion soup (delicious!), tartiflette (nice but had better - mostly potato) and a salad (ok). Friendly staff. Would return
We had a coffee stop at Les Chenus. The staff were pleasant and not snooty like a few of the other mountain ski restaurants. The views are tremendous and the coffee good!
