Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Lo Terrachu, Tignes....run by British Ski Instructors...with some of the best quality food I've ever eaten in a ski resort. Majority were British girls working the bar and tables when I was their last summer.

The Mont Blanc in Peisey Valandry might work for you |
Anecdotally [at least was] the 'best' British run pub in the Alps.
Possibly that is true.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Thank you all so much for all the information.
Particularly helpful are some of the comments about particular bars. It is surprisingly difficult to find out which bars are actually British run when using a Google search.
Please carry on posting more names of Brit bars if anyone can think of any. One not mentioned yet is La Mine in Plagne 1800. Apparantly French run but staffed Brits and frequented mainly by Brits so that qualifies as well.
I'll let you know how i get on.
Merci

The Kandahar in St Anton is run by a Brit

You know it makes sense.

I worked the season in ADH and in St Anton. Good luck getting a bar job as a first-time seasonnaire as the competition for bar work is quite competitive and desirable, and most bars give jobs to returning seasonnaires they already know. But here is my list of English-speaking-and-hiring bars regardless:
ADH - Sphere, Smithy's, Beau Soleil, Igloo (French-owned club but occasionally employ Brits). Could also try restaurants such as Lounge 21 or Rendez Vous.
Anton - Scotty's, Cuba, Anthony's, Piccadilly, Tom Dooley, Keller Bar. Don't think 'The Full English' exists any more (?) as I never came across it in my season.
Also try to join resort job groups on FB as some advertise on there.
