Sporting Alpe d'Huez

The Sporting Alpe d'Huez is an iconic restaurant and bar at the heart of Alpe d'Huez, established in 1967 in the former headquarters of the Alpe d'Huez Sports Club. This venue embodies the local mountain lifestyle and its history, welcoming both residents and visitors for lunches, après-ski drinks, festive dinners, and evening celebrations. Its design reflects a revisited 1970s spirit, blending chic party energy with gourmet cuisine while paying tribute to the champions who have shaped the station's legacy. Throughout the day, Sporting Alpe d'Huez offers varied experiences: sunny terrace lunches, afternoon snacks, lively après-ski sessions overlooking the skating rink with live music, and evenings filled with piano-bar dinners and DJ sets that transform the space into a VIP club atmosphere. The restaurant's cuisine highlights refined mountain-inspired dishes created from local products, drawing inspiration from the Alps, the Nice hinterland, Corsica, and Italy. Specialities grilled over a wood fire and generous desserts complement a bar menu featuring cocktails and prestigious bottles. The interior combines chic sporting style, vintage 1970s décor, period photographs, warm materials, and a vibrant mountain club spirit. The spaces include a sunny terrace, a piano bar, a festive bar, a DJ corner, an open kitchen, and areas with a fireplace, enabling a seamless transition from a convivial daytime meal to an energetic nightlife. Sporting Alpe d'Huez also serves as a versatile venue for private and corporate events, offering indoor and outdoor event spaces, cloakroom facilities, and flexible dining formats. A full summer privatization option provides organisers complete autonomy to tailor the venue and atmosphere to their needs.
