Where to Eat in Mont Tremblant, Quebec

We recently returned from a wonderful visit to Mont Tremblant for Christmas. The resort of Tremblant is well known for their world class skiing and snowboarding, as well as year round outdoor activities. While there was not much snow when we visited, there were plenty of wonderful restaurants- see the full list of Village restaurants here. We did not have enough time to try them all, but here are 9 spots we did LOVE.

Note: If you’re staying at one of the resort hotels, you can walk to most locations on our list. If you’re staying off resort property and parking in one of the three lots (P1, P2, P3), take the free Cabriolet (an open air gondola) express up to the base of the village to access most of the spots on this list. The Cabriolet is open year round, but to check seasonal, and daily, hours, check here and scroll to the bottom of the page. More information on parking and accessibility to the Village here

Our Top Tremblant Dining Recommendations:

  1. Resto- Bar Le Shack, located slope side in the heart of the Village, is the perfect lunch-with-a-view spot. The restaurant is cheerfully decorated with a woodsy theme and offers massive windows that overlook the “Flying Mile” four person chair lift and beginner “magic carpet” area. There are also outdoor tables facing the Village Square, with daily activities and entertainment. Plenty of hearty pub food (nachos, poutine, mac and cheese, burgers) and warm hot cocoa and cold beers.
    Open for lunch and dinner seven days a week; no reservations accepted.
    Menu here.
  2. Le Forge Bistro-Bar & Grill is located next to Le Shack, with similar views of the slopes. The main floor is more casual, with a menu of pub favorites, and a large bar in the middle of the restaurant. The second floor steakhouse is open for a formal dinner experience, with specialty steaks grilled over a maple wood fire. 
    Open for lunch and dinner on the main floor and dinner only on the second floor; reservations accepted for dinner only.
    Bistro Bar menu here and steakhouse menu here.

  1. La Maison da le Crêpe is located a little further down the hill, still in the heart of the village, in a cozy home. The restaurant is small, less than a dozen tables, so try off peak hours for a shorter wait. There are a wide variety of crepes for those in the mood for breakfast crepes, both savory and sweet. There are even options for those who prefer more “lunch” options like the pizza crepe and the hot dog crepe, as well as salads, soups, smoothies, and even Starbucks coffee
    Open each day at 8am; no reservations accepted.
    Menu here
  1. La Savoie, located near the Crêperie is another very cozy renovated house, with two rooms for enjoying the experience of fondue. Guests can choose from either the fondue or the racelette experience. Both experiences offer a feast that includes meat, fish, chicken, cheese, salad, vegetables galore, and multiple types of bread and potatoes. The fondue options include cheese, broth, or red wine. Try and leave room for the dessert fondue!
    Open each day for dinner at 4pm; reservations are accepted and we HIGHLY recommend making one as early as possible. 
    Menu here. Note: There is a per person fee, but half portions are offered for children.

We'll email this post to you, so you can come back to it later.

  1. Yahoo Pizza Pub is a great option for a lighter meal (but still plenty of cheese!) of pizza and a great option for take out. The pub is housed in another small house at the base of the Village, with a small patio for outdoor dining. The pizzas are delicious and the restaurant has a lively atmosphere with music most afternoons and evenings. There’s also a large variety of beer (almost a dozen drafts!), wine, and cocktail options. 
    Open each day at 11am and stays open until 1am during the week and even 3am on popular weekends; no reservations accepted.
    Menu here. Note: The small pizza is a great size and portion for one person.
  1. Microbrasserie La Diable is the quintessential pub, right in the heart of the Village, brewing a wide variety of crafts beers on site. The first microbrewery in the area, La Diable also has a great menu featuring burgers, sausages, salads, even pasta, and a generous Little Devils kids’ menu.
    Open each day at 11:30am until 9pm during the week and 10pm on the weekends; no reservations accepted.
    Menu here.
  1. Chocolato is the perfect spot for a warm chocolate drink or cool gelato, right in the heart of the Village. There are two dozen varieties of chocolate-based dips that can be used to create delicious hot chocolates, on top of ice cream or gelato, and as a fondue for fruit. The small house has a few tables, but plenty of options to go. And if you find yourself exploring more of Canada, check out more of Chocolato’s locations.
    Open everyday from 12p-9pm; no reservations accepted nor needed.
    Menu here.
  1. The restaurant at Hotel Quintessence (lower level of the stunning hotel) is a warm, inviting, sophisticated spot for a special dinner. There is a large wine bar and cellar to the right of the restaurant, which overlooks an inviting courtyard with peeks of Lake Tremblant. The menu includes unique fish and specialty steaks, and there is a children’s menu. Guests staying at a resort village can easily walk to Hotel Quintessence, but there is also valet parking for guests coming from outside the village. 
    Open all day, starting with breakfast, to-go lunch boxes, bistro for lunch, Après-Ski, dinner and options. Reservations are accepted and we suggest making a reservation for dinner or for the wine bar and cellar.
    See all of the menus here.
  1. La Petit Cachée is located just outside the main village across Lake. The “mountain chalet” decor is cozy and warm, the staff is incredibly attentive, and there is an impressive wine cellar. The menu includes many locally sourced produce and meat, and be sure to leave room for dessert. Based on our server’s recommendation, we ordered the key lime pie (in the middle of winter!) which is now on the menu year round, and it was as good as promised.
    Open each day at 5pm for dinner; reservations highly recommended. Take out available.
    Menu here.  

We hope you will follow along on our adventures on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and X

    Coast2Coast’s 3rd Birthday!

    The first week in June is our little blog’s 3rd birthday! We’ve come a long way from our first post on the opening of the Dr. Seuss Museum in Springfield, Massachusetts. Since that adventure, we estimate we’ve explored about 20 new-to-us cities, about 15 states, and driven over 30,000 miles adventuring (that’s NOT counting our regular schedule mileage!)

    We’re getting ready to hit the road again soon. We postponed a pretty amazing, pretty epic, almost cross country trip that we had been planning for 2+ years. I’ve been moping about it for a couple of months now, but believe we’ll make our way there next summer. I’m hoping we can reschedule some shorter trips that were planned for the spring, including exploring the Berkshires in Massachusetts parts of Vermont, and Scranton, Pennsylvania. I’m also hoping to revisit some of our favorite New England resorts and share in depth guides for them.

    This week, I’m recapping some of my most popular posts and sharing some stats for the blog. If you haven’t had a chance to read them, here’s a great index:

    12 Things to Do at the Delaware Museum of Nature and Science

    The Delaware Museum of Nature and Science, which originally opened in 1972 as the Delaware Museum of Natural History, was renovated in 2020-2022 and reopened as the Delaware Museum of Nature and Science in May of 2022. The museum galleries offer dozens of hands-on activities and exhibits that showcase “how nature connected us all through exploring dynamic and diverse ecosystems.” (delmns.org) The museum galleries are inviting with plenty of space to spread out and lots of light, while still being easy for parents to keep a close eye on children. Be sure to leave time to explore the outdoor walking trails and sculptures.

    Playing “I Spy” at The Bushnell Performing Arts Center in Hartford, Connecticut

    Named after local civic visionary Horace Bushnell, The Bushnell Performing Arts Center opened as Bushnell Memorial Hall in 1930, less than two years after the groundbreaking ceremony,  and was fully restored in 2005 for its 75th anniversary. Known as a presenting center (because all sets and costumes are brought in for each show), The Bushnell is home to the 2,799 seat Mortensen Hall, the 907 seat Belding Hall, which opened in 2001, and several small halls and suites for concerts, lectures, weddings, corporate events, and performances.

    Fort Adams in Newport, Rhode Island

    This is the 3rd post in a series detailing my recent visit to Newport, Rhode Island. To read about celebrating the holiday season in Newport, click here and to read about the International Tennis Hall of Fame, click here.

    Fort Adams has the honor of being both the largest fort in the United States and the only fort never attacked. Although, because it was never attacked or “officially in use”, it is not part of the National Parks program like many other forts throughout America. Fort Adams, located in Newport, Rhode Island, is one of twenty fortresses built after the War of 1812, took over 30 years (from 1820-1850) to complete, and is named after the second American President, John Adams. It was most effectively used as a training facility for West Point graduates before their official postings.

    The entire complex is a state park and open to the public, free of charge.  The public is welcome to use the restrooms, walk (leashed) dogs, fish, picnic, and even use the public beach. Sail Newport, housed on the property, rents sailboats and also gives lesson.

    On a recent visit to Newport, my family took the 90 minute, guided tours. We loved it. All of us, adults and children alike, found it interactive, informative, and even a little scary.  Steve Marino, our tour guide, made sure to engage our children throughout the tour.  You’ll need to start in the Visitor’s Center to purchase tickets. They offer a AAA discount. There are restrooms and a gift shop with snacks, drinks, and souvenirs. Strollers are allowed on most aspects of the tour, and you can leave strollers outside some “indoor” and tight spaces.

    Seven Things to Do in York, Maine

    I’m lucky enough to have first cousins all over the country. We’ve been trying to get everyone together every few years and this past month, we reconvened in York, Maine for “CousinFest”. The oceanside community did not disappoint. The people were so friendly and welcoming, and I have never met a more pedestrian friendly place in all of my travels. York, Maine consists of four distinct areas: York Village, rich in history; York Harbor, with lots of cottages looking out at Long Sands Beach; York Beach, with many tourist attractions; and Cape Neddick, mostly residential, ocean front properties.  Here’s a list of some things we all enjoyed in York:

    Eights Exhibits Kids Will Love at the Brooklyn Museum in Brooklyn, N.Y.

    One of the oldest- and largest- art museums in America, the Brooklyn Museum, located in the heart of the borough of Brooklyn in New York City, is home to over 500,000 objects of art from around the world and spanning over 5,000 years of history. The museum originally began as the Brooklyn Apprentices’ Library in the 1820s, joined the Brooklyn Lyceum in the 1840s to form the Brooklyn Institute before deciding to establish itself as a permanent fine art museum in 1846. The first wing of the museum officially opened to the public in 1897, with many additions and renovations throughout the 20th century and early 2000s.

  1. What a fabulous time it looks like you had with all that spectacular food! I guess when there isn’t much snow, or too much snow, the best place to be is inside enjoying food.

  2. Looks like you had a great time taste-testing around the mountain! That Microbrasserie La Diable might be my first apres-ski stop next time I’m there 🙂

  3. I’m so glad I found your blog! Been eyeing Quebec for this year’s adventures and food is the number one thing to me when visiting new places. You’ll definitely see me at the creperie and Chocolato, I have a bad sweet tooth.

  4. Tremblant looks like a fun place to visit in the winter. I’d love to ski there and enjoy some of your restaurant recommendations. Since I love crepes, La Maison da le Crêpe would be high on my list.
