Cuvaloup de Crans in Gingins

I have been going to restaurants on full moon nights for several years! Atmosphere always there.

fondue with bad half-cooked potatoes 😒

Charming and warm welcome despite our arrival at an unusual time. Despite everything, the owner agreed to serve us a snack on the outdoor terrace... delicious 👍

We didn't book and they were able to find us a table quite quickly. It was very busy and service was slow but friendly. Food was good, especially the fondue

Very welcoming restaurant, excellent terrace, we had a drink before going on the famous hike to the summit of the Dole, we came back to eat in the evening, We enjoyed ourselves... The boss is super nice. Everything was perfect, Don't hesitate... 😁😁😁🥰

I think the boss doesn't like bikers, when stamping an Fmvs book you have to show your credentials...and it's obviously annoying the boss

Is not the closest place to go from Geneva, but is definitely worth the ride! All is AMAZING

A Must Do Short hike of 20 minutes max to go there on foot The cuisine is super good and typical, with local products. The service is great, with an exceptional setting

The waitress was very friendly and smiling, but the owner was very unfriendly. Throw the plates at you. Madam, if you are tired, stay still. Because you are not leaving a good image of your restaurant

Magic of mountain cuisine, nature sympathy, cordiality and very good humor 30 years have passed, this place is wonderful for walks, skiing and finally sport in nature, beautiful forests and a herd of cows with horns, yes it's magical The restaurant of our youth Super friendly bosses and finding characters from our time year of light 1978 1990 Gd thank you to all the staff and bosses SPLENDID Marcel has the pipe

I had a lovely evening thank you

An aperitif with the family after the ascent of the Dôle (magnificent view). Large outdoor tables directly from sawing fir trees, with added smoothing and varnishing. A problem-free order, professionalism, well-served drinks and a good plate of cheese and cold meats. it was a little expensive for a French person but clean, neat and without any burrs.

Very warm welcome - smiling and pleasant. Well located for a break during hikes - quiet and allows you to recharge your batteries to continue the hike. Very good food. Congratulations and good luck. Signed the Bretons.

We had a good meal around a superb fondue served with the lovely smile of the young and dynamic waitress Thank you very much for this very pleasant moment The table of 3 on the right

Everything is wonderful, the restaurant, the staff, the atmosphere, the interior and exterior decor. In short, I recommend

We will simply come back without hesitation but without the hail if possible 😉

After a long walk in the snow, the industrial fire, food and kind staff was the perfect welcome. It isn’t huge or haut cuisine but just what you need. Single story with space for about 50 guests, it’s quiet at lunch but busy at dinner (booking encouraged). The kids were happy with nuggets and chips, while my father and I enjoyed steak pave (raw steak you cook on a hot stone with a choice of sauces and roti or chips). There’s a decent selection of wine, beer and hot chocolate. If you’re not French, remember chocolate viennoise is the hot chocolate you want. The toilets are nice and clean, even a smiley face on the hand drier. The staff are friendly, multi-lingual and there the right amount of time. Btw, you will have to walk to get here, not much from the main road but you can’t park outside.

always nice to stop for lunch or dinner in Cuvaloup de Crans after a short walk. the food is delicious, especially the homemade soup but also (of course) the fondue. Young, friendly and efficient service

Very nice waitresses. The fondue is quite small for 24 chf/person. Still hungry after finishing...they don't offer jugs of water but only bottles of water.

The place that was worth the detour is an era long gone. Too bad that in the middle of Nature the welcome leaves as much to be desired as in a horribly touristy place.

Very good restaurant delicious cheese crust. Warm and rustic. Plan on walking to get there in winter. Have a nice day in the mountains

We were a group of three people for a drink and a bite to eat (planchette). Arriving at 11:10 a.m., to an unfriendly welcome, we were informed that it was full for 12 p.m. We remind the person of the time and indicate our wish to have a drink and eat a plate, a story resolved in 30 minutes. Categorical refusal by the person. By luck and honor, a table becomes available a few seconds later. "Exceptionally" we can sit down but as the table is reserved for 2 p.m., no hot dish will be served to us, it is 11:15 a.m........... Fortunately the waitress is friendly, helpful, professional and fast. Two other customers joined our table and we received the same welcome. These regulars inform us that in this restaurant, it is an immense honor and privilege to be able to come and spend your money there. We paid and left at 11:55am It's a shame, because the place is magnificent and the service impeccable. But given the welcome, we will wait for the manager to be renewed to have the honor of visiting this place again.

I miss the days of self-service so much. Badly received. Empty tables that were reserved... And which remained empty all hour. Bad management and organization. I was “parked” in a corner and made to understand that I shouldn’t linger 👎

Charming place. We were very well received by the owners who know how to generate a warm atmosphere with the customers and with the place. The cuisine is excellent. THANKS. We will come back.

friendly staff seated us even though we were a group of 6 with no reservation on a sunny Saturday.

Had a Saturday with few crowds (slopes not open, cold and fog), a good time of warmth, good welcome and good cheese crust 😄!! All good, well done team 👍🏻

Alpine dishes, well served. Nice view with terrace. Service a little outdated during large crowds, but very kind and courteous.

Waitress (young mixed race) very kind and smiling and efficient! Roasbeef plate a little "light" and when requesting for 1 pt. extra, the boss made us understand that it is exceptional that we are doing this to you!! Not very commercial!! especially since she charged us Frs. 12.- for 3 small slices without notifying us!! Good meal, but that's the way!! In addition I ask for 5dl of open wine, and bring us a desired one (5dl bottle) and instead of Frs. 3.80.-, we had paid 4.40.- for the dl..!! Here again......

Magnificent view, the fondue is great. 1 in 3 meats had nerves...fast service.

Beautiful place. I ate there in winter and found the reception a little cold due to the fact that there were a lot of people at that time. Restaurant a little expensive despite everything!

Very disappointed with our experience this week. Normally the meat is great... Not this time. Tough meat and old bread. We've been customers for 15 years but didn't have the chance tonight. What a pity.

The food is very good, the waitress and manager are very friendly. The place is relaxing

A typical place with wonderful views.

A place to avoid very unpleasant boss and staff I think we need to change jobs this one is really not for them and in addition very expensive consumption

Restaurant and charming owner. Typical mountain places. With hearty and good food. Magnificent view of the French Jura. And setting sun.

Absolutely must be place not far from Geneva. The service is great. Owners are super friendly. The waitresses have provided an outstanding service during whole afternoon.

7€ for 2 espresso coffees, it's just a steal!!!

A beautiful place, which makes you want to come back

Friendly welcome in this Swiss chalet on the slopes of the Jura

Nice panorama. Friendly and very good cuisine. I recommend the delicious blueberry pie

Very warm welcome and very well eaten.

Dear and welcoming ➕ that dismaying...Everything needs to be reviewed....A noséabundant smell as a bonus...It is better to go to the ☕ balancer restaurant

Fully booked in the evening due to the full moon. We made the mistake of changing the reservation twice, but that's no reason to treat us so unfriendly. The server really pulled it off with her charm and friendliness - great! The fondue was perfect!

How a waitress can ruin the reputation of a restaurant: refuses to let me pay by card (minimum 20 francs, written nowhere, for a bill of 14.20 francs), then gives me change by mistake (paying by card would have been more judicious). The food is OK, the prices are expensive for the quality served (but these are ski resort prices, nothing surprising), but with such service, a star rating is expensive.

Beautiful area. Great welcome! Even during busy periods, the organization of the service is fast and efficient. We ate well on the terrace. Covid plan respected.

Hot chocolate and very sweet waitress

High prices, nasty food and very unfriendly staff :(

Friendly staff, pleasant meal, we always come back

Friendly, nice terrace and fair prices

For 35 cents, you have a meal by the fire, individual pierrade with a 180 g piece of Swiss beef...

Nice place with very friendly and accommodating owners! 👍🏻❤️

Overwhelmed all the time. The service is very slow. Reservation essential as we are in a mountain refreshment bar...

Always very pleasant and welcoming especially in this sunny autumn. No need to go very far to find yourself “in the mountains”!

Unpleasant service, completely overwhelmed staff, reservations not taken into account, tasteless food, 1 hour wait before being served, absolutely avoid.

Cozy restaurant with good food and good service.

Good welcome and fast service. Simple meal, but good. Ideal after a hike to eat.

Very bad welcome, the boss is not very nice, the bread tastes musty, the dried meat tastes like a damp cupboard, in short, changed boss....

Great restaurant, magnificent view!!

The place is definitely worth the detour. We had reserved a table outside because it was busy. The quality of the meal was not satisfactory and the staff acted under stress. Damage !

Ate very good fondue. Plus a sour must. Pleasant atmosphere. Not overcrowded. Dogs are welcome.

Very warm and friendly welcome in a magnificent place... even 10 minutes before closing on Sunday evening. Excellent homemade Linz tart!

Very well eaten delicious cheese crust Super friendly welcome Thank you see you soon M J M M

Very good restaurant, great welcome!!

Great location, with plenty of hiking around. Very welcoming and attentive service, and tasty food! We’ll be back 😊

Mountain place with friendly staff. Possible to arrive by car or paths. Typical dishes for the locality (assiette de charcuterie, fondue, rosti, salads). Average prices.

10 out of 10...very well received thank you.....

Simple place, the downside, mirtilled tart for 6fr, just expensive, too bad

Very tasty 😋, in winter ⛷🏂 and in summer too 🏃‍♂️🚵‍♂️

Great place where we can observe the curvature of the earth. Beautiful restaurant and the people are welcoming. I'm going back with pleasure.

Super accueil et propriétaires super sympa! Vue magnifique et terrasse très agréable Petite carte de spécialités locales

Restaurant pas famille compatible et une patronne pas du tout accueillante. Elle nous a refusé l’accès car on était avec un bébé.

Beautiful place in the pastures and very friendly service. We have eaten well.

Well, the welcome was great. Due to lack of change the waiter gave me €2 as a gift!!!

Welcome after a walk, the excellent hot fondue, malakof, walnut tart, and drinks all to go.

Personnellement je trouve très bien ce restaurant d'alpage, nous avons pris une petite croûte au fromage car la grosse je n'arrive pas a la finir et une tranche de gâteau et pour moi c'était très bon. C'est sûr qu'il ne faut pas comparer avec un gastronomique mais je ne pense pas que c'est le but. En plus je trouve l'accueil très sympa et on reviendra c'est sûr.

Magnificent place and very welcoming, very well eaten and very friendly staff, we will return.

It's closed due to COVID19 until November 30th

After a great walk (about 40 minutes) from Givrine we came across the welcome sight of Cuvaloup.A pretty standard alpine chalet with standard fayre of Fondue, Rosti etc.Will go again as it fits well into a lovely round walk & sits perfectly at the half way point.

Fondue and very friendly welcome

Very nice place Waitress at the top!

Very nice home. Excellent panorama.

Restaurant well located in the middle of the mountains on the way back from the flight from La Dole1680m we had a drink. The ice cubes were missing but very nice next to the cows. We can also eat

Super nice, the fondue is very creamy, magnificent view. A beautiful site for a nice walk alone or with the family. I recommend

Mountain restaurant where you eat very well or even better

Very remote but nice for eating. Very friendly...

On Sunday the waiter does not control a little stress bad service must ask for bread must ask for wine not a good place

Average lunch. What might work on a sunny ski day is more complicated during a rainy start to summer. The person serving was friendly, however.

Tart not too filling, lacks freshness

Nice place, nice staff, reserved advice

Lovely location, good service with social distancing

Typical mountain restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere. The staff is quite reserved and does not try too hard to accommodate customers. We feel that they don't need to try hard to attract customers, because they come for the surrounding area. Damage. I ordered a rösti with fried eggs; They arrived very cooked (hard). I asked for them to replace them and I was told that we would check with the kitchen... They finally changed them for me free of charge. The dish was not very good (very greasy and without much interest). Thing to know: they charge VAT in addition!! It was not indicated on the menu... Never seen before in Switzerland! Ok for a coffee on the terrace but no more.

Warm welcome, excellent cuisine, magnificent terrace.

Very good simple meal. Good service. Beautiful terrace.

Simple and excellent cuisine in a magnificent setting. Very nice home

Disappointed. I already ate there 2 years ago and it's very good. But now, I won't go there again. The rösti was not excellent, but the worst was there meringue with double cream and givrine. When we were served dessert, we thought they had made a mistake and put a scoop of ice cream visually. But it was the double cream which was very double according to the waiter and it felt like eating butter.

A super nice place with great staff and super helpful managers

Excellent welcome, traditional cuisine

Nice view. Too bad the cheese crusts are undercooked and toasted. Made with sandwich bread and mustard. Disappointed with the dish. The waitress was very friendly and efficient 😊. I won't come anymore.

Cuvaloup everything was perfect.

The restaurant offers typical dishes of the Swiss mountain tradition. The menu is short with mainly cheese-based dishes. The dishes offered are substantial, good and appetizing. The quantities are generous so please consider this when ordering. Prices normal. Convivial environment. Excellent location to finish a walk. Very kind and friendly staff.
