Restaurants & Bars
There are a couple of great little bars for a traditional pastis, kir aperitif or just a demi. They offer a chance to mingle with some of the village characters and to test your very best language skills that has been locked up for so long. After getting nice and cosy why not settle in for dinner somewhere? Our local restaurants use fresh produce where available and create masterful specialities such as tartiflette, or perhaps you want an authentic thin based pizza? Yummmm!
"Vaujany is such a quaint beautiful village however, with a new bar recently opened it also has a great atmosphere. "

Bar & Restaurant IDA
04 76 80 71 00
Our old local as we used to operate this hotel in the winter season. In the summer the square in front of the Hotel V is a glorious suntrap and a great place for an aperitif. Why not then simply stay for an authentic taste of France in their new restaurant.
Expect a warm French reception with many old locals in there on a regular basis – perfect for sprucing up your language skills.
Shred Burger

Matej and Simon are avid Mountain Bikersthat serve up delicious beers, an array of aperitifs, digestives and make a killer burger. They are pro ski boot fitters, so if you are a winter rider too, you best come on in. Live music every week on Thursdays and BBQ evening on Friday
Chez Passoud (Auberge) Restaurant
04 76 80 73 18
This is THE place for real Vaujany food and a chance to experience dishes you literally might only find in this village. Well worth the venture just out of Vaujany, there is a large menu with more traditional plates, but foodies must try some of their special centuries’ old recipes. In their garden behind the restaurant M and Mme Passoud grow the vegetables and herbs needed for this unique mountain fare and they are harvested sometimes just as you order! Get a balcony table for a magical view of the valley below; it is quintessential French Alps in the summer
Chalet Gourmand
04 76 80 77 11
The family favourite. Pascal’s wood fired oven pizzas are now legendary and the atmosphere extremely cosy, with wooden walls and old mountain tools aplenty. Or drink in the view and dine ‘al fresco’ on the sundrenched terrace with great views all around. Traditional French Alp mountain dishes are prepared with great care. Take away also possible.
Le Cairn

Beautiful specialties. Cheese delicatessen, honey, jams wool etc plus there wine and beer on the terrace... perfect to soak in the view in a more secluded spot
Le Collet
06 31 34 10 89
Eat at the tennis courts just above La Villette and you’ll be surrounded by some of the very best views imaginable for a BBQ. The restaurant does great tennis-watching-snacks and surprisingly good steaks. However, its real strength are the ‘bring your own meat’ BBQs. Once a week the BBQ is fired up, there is often music and as the sun sets you grill what you’ve brought and wash it down with chilled ‘demis’ or wine from the restaurant.
Le Table de la Fare
04 76 80 82 40
This bar and restaurant is easily accessible due to its location right next to the lift station. It's also a wonderful suntrap looking out onto the Cascade de La Fare. The food is quintessentially French and so is their service.
L’Aigle Royal
04 76 79 58 48
Fantastic made-on-the-spot crepes. Not much more than a shed in the middle of the village in someone’s backyard, but never judge a book by its cover – the nutella crepes are simply irresistible!
Le S’Tou
04 76 11 11 93
Ran by the commune for everyone. This is located in the same complex as the bowling and ice skating and is perfect for lunch or dinner for all ages and group sizes
Le Crepe Rit
06 03 98 07 43
A small and attentive team providing excellent fresh and organic products. Very tasty crepes in sweet & salty, plus great coffee!
Auberge La Cure
04 76 79 55 62
Auberge la Cure is a cosy and characterful Auberge in the valley of the l’Oisans, close by to Alpe d'Huez. From the Auberge you can explore the beautiful surroundings year-round - in the winter by skis and in the summer by bike. Take advantage of the many scenic walks nearby in the spring or autumn.
Le QG Pub
Friendly and lively bar with 3 large screen TV’s where live sport is shown all day long. Viv is a great character and always keen to hear how your day has been.

Cycling in the French Alps and Oisans area is a wonderful experience. Riding out of Vaujany every morning whether to train or compete, is like riding through the annals of cycling history.
There's nothing quite like a good pair of shoes, and bicycles work in a similar way; a good well-adjusted bike to suit your body type and riding ability will make you ride more comfortably, last longer and roll faster.
Skiing season over? Not a chance I hear you say! Think again - You can ski in the summer in the French Alps, no need to put away that precious ski gear.
