Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Chamonix over Xmas

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Hello all

Quick question for anyone who might have some insider information. We arrive in Chamonix on christmas eve around 7ish. Does anybody know if any of the supermarkets or restaurants are likely to be open? Also the same sort of question for christmas day (are bakeries likely to open)? Just trying to figure out what we may need to bring with us in terms of food etc .

Thanks

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

In my experience in the region the boulangeries, patisseries etc will have done a roaring trade during late afternoon and early evening and shelves might be pretty bare by 7pm on Christmas Eve, when they'll be looking to close. Restaurants will be busy - it's the main night for eating out. To be safe, book yourselves a table somewhere or you might find there's no room at the inn.
Are you driving to Chamonix? There's a convenient boulangerie in Sallanches which should still be open.

@dye, I’d expect train to St Gervais Les Bains then a bus from there whose timetable probably doesn’t match too well...
