Top choice in Savoie
Jack's Bar plays it cool, but it's the slickest après-ski operator in town: stand-up comedy, themed nights, and live music from 5pm to 7pm from Monday to Friday. All-day food service has truffle-oil-drizzled pizzas, Reblochon macaroni and other sophisticated Alpine fillers, while the cocktails include quality winter warmers (amaretto and hot cranberry hits the spot). Happy hour is 4pm.
On live music nights, it's well worth booking a table and settling in for dinner (mains €12 to €21).
