La Vieille Chouette
About
Experience a one‑of‑a‑kind dining adventure where the rustic charm of a French ski lodge meets modern foodie flair. La Vieille Chouette, nestled in La Ciotat, transforms into a cozy alpine retreat known as “Chouette 1800,” complete with a dedicated high‑altitude restaurant, cable‑car‑style lifts, and a kitschy chalet‑style dining area that invites guests to step back into a whimsical mountain world. The menu is a playful mix of classic French bistro dishes and hearty comfort food, featuring homemade burgers, fondue, raclette, and a variety of salads and platters that highlight regionally sourced, 100% fresh ingredients. Whether you’re winding down after a day at the coast or looking for a relaxed picnic‑style lunch, La Vieille Chouette serves 7‑day service from noon to mid‑afternoon and then again in the evening from 7:30 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Every day, guests can enjoy a friendly, customer‑centric atmosphere, where reservations can be made over the phone or online. The restaurant also offers a mobile food truck for private and corporate events, adding flexibility to the dining experience. Located on Avenue de la Gare (13600 La Ciotat), the restaurant is easily reachable by car or public transport and welcomes patrons any time of year. A vibrant menu, welcoming décor, and a touch of alpine nostalgia make La Vieille Chouette a must‑visit spot for food lovers, families, and solo travelers alike.
