Le Relais Gourmand

About

Nestled along the picturesque Canal de Savières in the charming village of Chanaz, Le Rélais Gourmand offers a dining experience that marries rustic French tradition with the tranquil ambiance of Lake Bourget. The restaurant’s interior boasts a warm, welcoming atmosphere, while two terraces—one on a pontoon overlooking the canal and another fronting the main hall—provide diners with delightful views of the water and the surrounding alpine scenery. Le Rélais Gourmand specializes in regional Provence‑Alpine cuisine. Guests can indulge in a carefully curated menu that features hearty local dishes, fresh fish from the lake, and seasonal produce, all prepared with a modern flair. The kitchen caters to diverse dietary needs, offering gluten‑free, vegan, and vegetarian options, and a rotating selection of local cheeses, charcuterie and desserts that showcase the area's culinary heritage. With a friendly, attentive staff and flexible service that accommodates early‑morning breakfasts, leisurely lunches, and relaxed dinners, the restaurant pairs well with the adjacent charming rooms, boat rentals, and the scenic landscapes of the Bourget region. Whether you’re looking for a quiet lunch by the canal or a romantic evening with a view, Le Rélais Gourmand delivers authentic French hospitality in a setting that feels both intimate and inviting.
