Where to eat out in Morzine if you have special dietary requirements

If you are visiting Morzine and you have special dietary requirements, then you may be wondering how easy it will be to eat out!  Whether you are vegetarian, vegan, gluten intolerant, lactose intolerant or if you have a different dietary requirement, you will be pleased to learn that the restaurants in Morzine (and in France on the whole) have vastly improved their offering! All restaurants in France now legally have to provide information about which of their dishes contain certain products and certain allergens.  If this information isn’t already marked on their main menu, they will have an additional menu that does list all allergens as this is now a legal requirement.  However some restaurants have more choice than others for certain intolerances and here is a quick round up…..

Le Bec Jaune

A popular brasserie brewing its own beer, this bar also serves great bar food including a wide choice of tasty vegan dishes.  Even non-vegans visit the Bec to taste something a little different!  This winter their menu features a mexican influence with great dishes such as spicy tofu, nachos, home-made celeriac remoulade, roast beets, burgers, chilli fries, vegetable chilli and much more!

Le Colibri

A new brasserie which opened for winter 2018 offers a great setting in a great location just off the Pléney slopes and towards the centre of Morzine.  With a brasserie/café menu offering a wide range of Buddha bowls, burgers, sandwiches, bruschetta, salads and much more plus a range of drinks including Chai Lattés, organic herbal teas and much more!

La Rotonde

Similar to Etale, La Rotonde also offers gluten-free pizzas and a large menu with many allergens clearly marked on their main menu making it easy for those following special diets to choose from.  The thai beef noodle salad is a great one for gluten-free diets and there are also great vegetarian options.
