Le Refuge Payot sur Chamonix-Mont-Blanc

You can find everything here, it's like a Savoyard Alibaba cave 😆. However, I was very poorly received by a saleswoman in her fifties with glasses. When I kindly asked him for his advice on cheeses, I said "I'm looking for local products that you can't find in Lyon for example". She replied dryly: “I don’t care about Lyon, I don’t know what’s there!” What contempt and aggression! I am shocked by his lack of politeness and professionalism!

A big thank you to Guillaume, very pleasant and excellent advice who took the time to advise us!

Very good products and pleasant server.

Heartwarming welcome Wide choice of products.

Very very warm welcome from the owners who are very commercial without pushing consumption, friendly Lots of (good) choices of local products and not necessarily excessive. We will return before the end of our stay in Chamonix.

The store is located on the busiest street for tourists in Chamonix, which is why we found it. If you want to get something local and Haute-Savoie perhaps this could be a store to consider. It has a variety of gastronomic options, especially cheeses, charcuterie and drinks. The prices are high but it is understandable due to the location of the store and the city. I recommend going early because the catalog is large and it may take time to see all the options.

After a long hike in Chammonix we wanted to eat in and bought groceries here. The staff was so kind and gave us excellent recommendations for wine and cheese. We sampled a few items before buying enough to last us a couple days. The shop is beautiful and has much variety in items for charcuterie. Don’t forget baguettes

The very friendly Guillam treated us like royalty. He knows his products well. Thank you!

A real Ali Baba's cave with an exceptionally adorable seller! Attentive and very good advice! Good luck to him in Chamonix! And long live this beautiful local store!

Bon accueil, beaucoup de choix. En revanche nous avons acheté une fondue pour deux et j’ai été malade toute la nuit. Elle avait été préparé le 10/03, étiquetée le 11/03, nous l’avons mangé le soir même du 11/03 et j’ai subis une grosse intoxication alimentaire. Malgré une cuisson longue à haute chaleur en remuant vigoureusement, le vin blanc est resté en surface et ne se mélangeait pas bien avec le fromage (qui semblait très vieux)… Plutôt déçus car l’endroit est sympa et propose de nombreux produits. Mais la fondue n’est clairement pas un bon choix !!
