Le Refuge sur Gap

Absolutely fantastic, a warm welcome, superb service, and excellent menus.

Absolutely delicious and they served us very kindly at the end of our meal! Thank you to them, we will gladly return when passing through Gap.

Warm, generous, and joyful: these are the three key words to describe our evening. The atmosphere is reminiscent of mountain chalets, familiar to those who are used to hiking. I particularly enjoyed the deep conversation with the servers, as well as their complimentary round of drinks! To be fair, the food was perfectly acceptable. However, for the raclette, I would have preferred more cheese than cured meats. The service was excellent: dynamic and enthusiastic. Finally, I think some background music, or perhaps a wider variety of raclette options, would be welcome.

We hadn't been since the change of ownership, and frankly, we should have avoided it. The set menu featured undercooked duck legs. The Basque cake for dessert was made with frozen ingredients. I would have preferred a homemade apple tart. Anyway, a young man in a red jacket—no kitchen uniform, I won't even describe the color of the jacket—came out of the kitchen. Many of the staff were very, very young, probably minors, and therefore inexperienced.

We were passing through Gap for two evenings. This restaurant, located outside the city center but still within walking distance, was a truly delightful surprise. The welcome was attentive. The dining room has an original and inviting decor. The service, provided by a final-year vocational trainee, was friendly, efficient, and professional. The two typical local dishes, Tortons and Ravioles, were generous and, above all, delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Very good mountain specialty restaurant

We went as a family of four, and when we got sick, I won't be going back.

I wanted to give special thanks to a waiter who took excellent care of us throughout the meal. (Tall, blond man) Unfortunately, I don't know his name. A very enjoyable experience.

We were just passing through the area, and this restaurant was recommended to us. Go without hesitation! The staff is incredibly friendly. We hadn't made a reservation, and they managed to find us a table. We had a delicious meal; the ingredients are of very high quality. 😊

At first, we felt a bit like we were interrupting something 😅: the servers were rather cold and distant. A few minor oversights here and there, but nothing serious, everything was quickly rectified. And above all, we had a great time! As the end of service approached, the atmosphere relaxed: the servers were much more smiling and pleasant, proving that all's well that ends well 😉 Regarding the sharing platters for two: if you have big appetites, it might be better to each order a main course. Otherwise, the food was really delicious! We were a little disappointed with the selection of charcuterie, which was a bit limited for our taste—we would have loved more choices. On the other hand, the cheese was excellent 🧀 The setting and decor are really nice, perfectly in keeping with the restaurant's theme, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. In short, despite a few minor drawbacks, we had a great time… and we'll definitely be back! 😊
