Nestled along the Biolley piste above the resort, La Loy is easily accessed by skiing directly down toward Saint-Martin-de-Belleville from the top of the St Martin 1 gondola. As it sits literally on the way back to the village, you can effortlessly ski from La Loy all the way down to Saint-Martin without using any lifts. The menu focuses on traditional Savoie cuisine—pasta, fondue, raclette, and more refined offerings like croûtes savoyardes, lamb rack, or sweetbreads, reflecting a gourmet twist on alpine classics. The atmosphere strikes a balance—cozy and authentic with log fires and a sunny terrace, ideal for a relaxed apres-ski stop rather than a bustling party scene.

L’Eskis is another, ideally situated restaurant, found right at the top station of the Saint-Martin 1 gondola, making arrival both effortless and scenic. Skiers and non-skiers alike can disembark at the gondola and walk over to L’Eskis. Its location means that skiers can descend the mountain directly into the village of Saint Martin without the need of any more lifts. 

It offers a hearty, Savoyard-inspired menu balanced with approachable favorites. Signature dishes include Royans gratin, mushroom soup en croûte, diots sausages with polenta, burgers, and seasonal specials like alpine-style fish & chips made with trout. The emphasis is on homemade, generously portioned mountain-style fare made with locally sourced ingredients—meats from Chambéry and cheeses and charcuterie from nearby artisans.

Situated between Les Menuires and Val Thorens, Chez Pépé Nicolas is directly accessible via the La Chasse piste—a convenient on-ski route if snow and conditions allow. Chez Pepe is a charming family-run alpine farm-restaurant offering a bistronomic Savoyard menu crafted with produce from their mountain pasture, permaculture garden, fishpond, and trusted local suppliers. Expect trout, fresh goat cheese tarts, traditional fondue, raclette (enhanced with morels or truffles), homemade ice creams, and matafins served in a thoughtful and authentic mountain culinary style. Note though that direct ski return is not possible to St Martin, so use of lifts to return to the village is necessary.
