APRES SKI IN FLAINE
Flaine is not particularly renowned for its après ski, but there are a few places to keep yourself occupied on the mountains with some lovely sunny terraces to relax on, in a deck chair with a well-earned drink in your hand! La Pente à Jules is one of these locations, it is fairly lowkey but has a DJ and deck chairs which makes it a great place to kick back after a day on the slopes.
The Flying Dutchman in Flaine Forêt is probably the liveliest of Flaine's bars, and it starts to get busy from around 3pm and tends to stay busy well into the evening. There are also outdoor heaters on the terrace for those who want to enjoy an al fresco drink after the sun has gone down. The bar usually runs a weekly pub quiz and karaoke nights, but check the events once you're in Flaine.
Other apres ski spots to go in Flaine are mainly around the lift bases such as Le Diamant Noir in Flaine Foret or Brasserie Les Cimes in Flaine Forum. Both are similar apres bars with happy hours, pool tables, good music with occasional live acts and a great atmosphere!
Flaine Nightlife
Later in the evenings, the place to go is the White Pub in Flaine Forum, it is a larger English style pub with a good selection of drinks, happy hour, a big screen TV and occasionally some live music to keep the entertainment flowing!
Other venues to try out are the Perdrix Noire located in Flaine Forêt which is very atmospheric when it has a good crowd and some great beer on offer, and also Les Caves which is the local nightclub open from 11pm-5am every evening so you can party all night long!
Apres Bowling
One slightly different place to head for apres ski is 'Galaxy Bowling' where there is something for everyone, including the children. Open from 5pm (2pm on those days with bad weather!) until 3am, you can go bowling and enjoy some drinks from the bar whilst tuning in with some live sport on the TV’s – if that still isn’t enough to keep everyone entertained, then there is a games room and pool tables also on offer!
