Pragelato

Pragelato Resort Restaurants

Pragelato is one of the better places in the Via Lattea for traditional Piedmontese mountain food, with most of the best restaurants found in the villages of Pattemouche and Plan rather than in purpose-built resort developments.

La Cabane has established itself as one of the more interesting additions to the valley, serving sushi and Japanese-inspired dishes alongside local influences. Just a short walk from Pattemouche, it offers something a little different.

For pizzas, Al Mulino remains the local favourite and is usually busy throughout the week. Nearby, L'Antica Osteria is a good choice for traditional regional cooking and a lively atmosphere, while Il Lupo e la Greppia offers a more intimate setting with a menu focused on local specialities.

A little further up the valley, Locanda Allevé is well worth seeking out for refined Piedmontese cuisine in a beautiful mountain setting.

Pragelato Mountain Restaurants

The Via Lattea ski area offers a surprisingly good selection of mountain restaurants, particularly for those willing to venture beyond the main self-service venues.

Raggio di Sole, at the top of the Pattemouche cable car, is one of the most popular stops in the Pragelato sector. The large terrace is a great sun trap and makes an excellent place for a long lunch or a relaxed drink during the afternoon.

Il Chisonetto is another favourite with an excellent terrace, good wine list and simple but consistently good food. Higher up the mountain, La Tana della Volpe combines some of the best views in the ski area with excellent local cuisine.

Those exploring further towards Sauze d'Oulx should consider Ciao Pais and Il Capricorno, both of which have earned excellent reputations for food and atmosphere. Meanwhile, La Fontaine is a hidden gem at the bottom of the Sauze sector, particularly well known for its fresh pasta dishes and friendly service.

Pragelato Apres Ski

Après ski in Pragelato is very relaxed but there are still a handful of excellent spots to finish the day.

Raggio di Sole is our favourite venue with live music, a sunny terrace and friendly atmosphere.

For those skiing back from Sestriere, La Tana della Volpe is a great place for a final drink before tackling the long descent back towards Pragelato.

Over in Sestriere, La Gargote is usually the liveliest slope-side après ski venue, while QB is a popular choice for aperitivo and drinks at the bottom of the slopes.

Pragelato Nightlife

Pragelato itself is generally geared more towards good food and relaxed evenings than late-night partying.

Those looking for a livelier atmosphere usually head to nearby Sestriere. Barabba is a good option for cocktails and drinks in the centre of town, while QB remains popular throughout the evening.

For late-night entertainment, Tabata continues to be the best-known nightclub.
