When you come on holiday to Chamonix in the Haute-Savoie region of France, you expect to find raclettes and fondues on the menu, along with other traditional Alpine dishes. But our mountain town also serves up another favourite comfort food — pizza! With Italy just on the other side of Mont Blanc, it’s no surprise that Chamonix has plenty of excellent pizzerias to choose from.
Here are some of our favourites.
Joia by Pizzeria des Moulins
109 Rue des Moulins, 74400 Chamonix
If there’s one pizza place that locals and visitors both rave about, it’s Joia. Nestled on the lively Rue des Moulins, this buzzing spot is the beating heart of Chamonix’s foodie scene. The pizzas are everything you’d hope for from a proper Italian oven — thin, wood-fired crusts with just the right chew, fresh toppings, and flavour combinations that keep you coming back for “just one more slice.”
It’s not just about the food though — Joia has that special atmosphere. The place is always full of life, with ski boots under tables, families sharing platters, and groups of friends starting their night out. Order an Aperol Spritz or a glass of Italian red, grab a seat on the terrace in summer, and you’ll quickly see why Joia is a Chamonix favourite.
La Roulotte
390 Rue Joseph Vallot, 74400 Chamonix
In the centre of Chamonix, La Roulotte welcomes guests from its colourful caravan. The pizzas are freshly made with quality ingredients, and there’s also a good selection of salads for something lighter. Seating is limited to the terrace — lovely in summer, but a bit chilly in winter — so takeaway is a popular option during the colder months.
Casa Valerio
90 Rue du Lyret, 74400 Chamonix
A long-standing Chamonix institution, Casa Valerio has been serving authentic Italian cuisine for decades. Just off the main square, it’s run by a genuine Italian chef, and their Margherita Napoletana Extra even won “Best in France” in 2007 and placed third in the world! Expect top-quality ingredients, traditional flavours, and a menu that goes far beyond pizza — with antipasti, pasta, fresh fish, and a well-curated wine list.
Casa Valerio has also recently taken over Little Boxes in Chamonix Sud, bringing their famous pizzas to a more casual setting — perfect for grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a laid-back evening in the south side of town.
Le Bartavel
26 Cour du Bartavel, 74400 Chamonix
Located next to the Chamonix cinema, Le Bartavel is a relaxed, welcoming spot offering wood-fired pizzas at reasonable prices. The staff are friendly, and the menu includes a variety of brasserie-style dishes and tempting desserts (the ice cream is especially good!).
Neapolis
13 Rue du Docteur Paccard, 74400 Chamonix
Centrally located beside the river, Neapolis is known for its excellent pizzas, quick service, and warm atmosphere. The base is authentically Italian, the toppings are generous and high quality, and the prices are fair. The menu also includes classic Italian dishes, but it’s the pizza that keeps people coming back.
Big Mountain Basecamp Bar
365 Avenue Ravanel le Rouge, 74400 Chamonix-Mont-Blanc
Pizza and craft beer? Say no more. Big Mountain Brewing Co. is Chamonix’s very own microbrewery, serving the perfect combination of wood-fired pizzas and home-brewed beers. The vibe is relaxed and social, with long tables, friendly staff, and a cosy industrial feel.
The pizzas are hearty and fresh — ideal for sharing (though you may want to keep one to yourself). Pair your slice with one of their IPAs or seasonal brews, which rotate regularly. Whether you’re winding down after skiing, celebrating a summit, or just catching up with friends, Basecamp Bar is the kind of place where a quick drink often turns into an entire evening.
The Dainty Pizza
67 Promenade Marie Paradis, 74400 Chamonix
The cool kid of Chamonix Sud, Dainty Pizza is all about creativity and quality. Expect slow-fermented dough, imaginative toppings, and a relaxed, modern atmosphere that blends sustainability with style. It’s hip without being pretentious — and perfect for anyone who believes pizza can be both fun and a little bit fancy.
