Cluses station information & restaurants

Daniel Elkan, Cafe de la Gare at Cluses

Cluses station has a waiting room so you can stay warm if you are waiting for a taxi, bus or train.

There is a cafe/restaurant/bar right opposite, called Cafe de La Gare, so you can get food and hot and cold drinks if or while you wait for a train or bus.

The town, which has plenty of shops, is just down the street (literally one or two minutes walk).  So you could stock up on provisions at a supermarket there too.

If you happen to be at Cluses in the evening, a good place to eat is Restaurant le 8 Mai (0033 450982450). It is 150 metres from the station.

You don't have to reserve but if there's a group of you the owner recommends it (you'll need to do this in French or ask a French speaker to do this for you).

In the days when Cluses had overnight sleeper trains going back to Paris, we ate there a couple of times (see photo).  At the moment SNCF has axed the sleeper trains, but they are due to return in future years.
