People say it can be hard to get in so it might be a good idea to come on the earlier side if you really don't want to miss it. They have a DJ and a small dance floor, and an additional bar upstairs. I remember thinking the music was ok, at least after a couple of Hendric's... This place is worth checking out if you are out in Chamonix, however, I'm not sure it's worth it if you have to pay to get in. The regular sport bars may be fun enough!

The atmosphere was calm and quiet, compared to the hustle and bustle outside. The staff spoke limited English, and the menu was French. The lunch set menu was very reasonable and had good options. Everything was very well seasoned, cooked well, and enjoyable. They also had a large variety of wines available. We would come back again.

When we entered the restaurant, there was a smell of old cheese not cleaned properly from the caquelons, burners or other dishes what should indeed - have been a clear warning for us. We did NOT have Fondue what many tourists eat here but the "Special" of the day - soup or salad as a starter, turkey with risotto on a tomato sauce. The soup and salad where good, the main course too although the presentation of the course was a little unusual - everything was kind of "swimming" in the risotto and the turkey was so cooked you did not need a knife but rather a soup spoon which was also offered unsolicited. It tased good and we were full very easily. Long story short - the food was tasty but we both had belly cramps half an hour later when we were back at the hotel.

We chose Bar D'up because it looked like a fun place and it stayed open late. They had a billiards table, a foosball table and a VERY used dart bar. When we went, it was relevantly quite until around 11 pm. Then there was a bigger crowd. They had about 6 to 8 beers on tap, but we ended up ordering the Grolsch. The music selection was good and a few of the bartenders spoke English which was definitely a plus.
