About Brasserie d'alpage Les Cerniers
Brasserie d'alpage Les Cerniers is a Les Giettes venue with opening windows for midday and evening visits Monday through Thursday, plus longer Friday-to-Sunday hours. The clearest planning details are its schedule and smart casual dress code, so decisions should be based on timing, occasion, and whether Les Giettes fits the rest of the day.
Choose it for a direct Les Giettes meal
It is best viewed as a practical Les Giettes option rather than a venue to choose for a specific culinary format, tasting menu, price level, cuisine type, awards, or seat count.
If the brief calls for comparing nearby or regional options, consider Le Café Suisse or Au Vieux Manoir before committing. If the main requirement is a Les Giettes meal that fits a confirmed opening window, Brasserie d'alpage Les Cerniers is the relevant choice.
Season and timing should drive the decision
Timing is the most useful planning factor. Monday through Thursday, the venue lists 12–2 PM and 6:30–9 PM. Friday through Sunday, it lists 8 AM–9:30 PM. Those hours make weekday visits more structured, while the weekend schedule gives diners a wider window to plan around.
The smart casual dress code is the only dress guidance provided.
Choose a weekday midday or evening slot if it fits the opening hours, use Friday through Sunday for the widest timing flexibility, and compare elsewhere if the occasion depends on specific cuisine, awards, pricing, or a formal dining format.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Set high on a plateau in the Chablais Alps, this alpage brasserie reads like a direct expression of its landscape. Mountain pastures, summer grazing, botanical diversity and age-old dairy practices shape the menu, giving the dining room a strong sense of place. Expect a relaxed, classic Alpine charm rather than haute-formal theatrics: the tone privileges seasonal terroir and rustic provenance, so the experience centers on honest plates that celebrate the milk and cheese of the high meadows.
Best For
Brasserie d'alpage Les Cerniers suits visitors who want a grounded, communal Alpine meal anchored in local dairy traditions. The menu emphasis on cheese-based dishes, fondue and raclette, and hearty offerings like tartare de boeuf makes it a natural choice for family outings and casual gatherings after a mountain approach. The setting at 1,400 metres rewards diners seeking scenic, place-driven cooking: it’s less about a formal tasting ritual and more about sharing regional specialties that directly reflect the high‑pasture origin of the ingredients.
Ordering Tips
Prioritize the venue’s dairy-forward specialties when you visit: cheese fondue, raclette and tartare de boeuf are signature items. Given the brasserie’s alpage focus, ask about which cheeses are from the current season’s pastures so you can taste the seasonal differences tied to high-altitude grazing. Portions and preparations here tend to be convivial and shareable, so plan to try a couple of the cheese-centric classics with companions to get the fullest sense of the alpage provenance described in the menu.

Restaurant context
How it compares in and around Les Giettes
Brasserie d'alpage Les Cerniers is the easier, more setting-led choice: book it when the meal is part of a mountain day and the group wants a relaxed room rather than a formal dining agenda. Du Théâtre is the better value play on paper, with Modern Cuisine at € pricing, so choose it if price clarity matters more than alpine atmosphere.
For a more deliberate splurge, Le Café Suisse sits at €€€€ and should be the comparison when the occasion needs a higher-spend frame. Au Vieux Manoir is the cleaner pick for French Contemporary at €€€, while Fleur de Neige is the closer match if traditional cuisine is the priority.
Restaurant de l'Hôtel de Ville is worth cross-shopping when location or availability decides the meal, but without a clear price or cuisine signal it is harder to position from the outside. For an easy booking and a mountain-first meal, stay with Les Cerniers; for a more defined cuisine brief, start with Au Vieux Manoir, Du Théâtre, Le Café Suisse, or Fleur de Neige.
