“Super restaurant/bar pour se reposer après une randonnée dans les montagnes et en attendant le bus pour retourner à Grenoble. L'intérieur est tout petit, ce qui rend l'intérieur cosy et chaleureux. Pas mal de produits artisanaux comme du fromage et du miel était à vendre à des prix qui me paraissaient très raisonnables. Et la déco est très jolie. On se sent comme à la maison. Le propriétaire est super efficace dans son service et chaleureux. Il nous a donné plus que ce qu'on avait commandé et nous a réduit son prix à la fin en plus. Les gens à côté de nous avaient commandé une planche qui avait l'air très généreuse aussi. Bref c'était une belle expérience avant de quitter l'endroit. Je recommande.”
“C'est l'endroit parfait pour prendre un bon chocolat chaud après une journée dans le froid, le rapport qualité prix est excellent et le gérant très sympatique”
“Nous nous sommes arrêtés une nuit lors de notre traversée de la Chartreuse. Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Seb, qui s'est montré chaleureux et disponible. Le logement était impeccable et très propre. Nous recommandons vivement cette adresse.”
“We have visited the cafe of the chalet jaune during a Sunday afternoon at the end of March. There was fresh snow and we stayed for a coffee at the basement of the facility. We enjoyed a lot the place: - the personnel is very pleasant - the prices are reasonable All in all it is a highly suggested place!!!”
“Small, friendly refuge run by Sebastien. Clean and comfortable modern facilities with its own bar. Great home cooking and a good breakfast. Excellent location for exploring the Chartreuse regional park.”
“Ci siamo fermati per una merenda. Ci sono soprattutto posti sulla terrazza. Era estate e quindi era piacevole. Il proprietario o un dipendente, non saprei dire, era un molto chiacchierone. Ma ok, non troppo. Abbiamo speso circa 25€ in tre per due caffè, birra, tre crêpes.”
