@picnmix1974, the garage might be a good option for pizza/burger, good atmosphere. Petit danois for music. Check the nights they have music. Pre book

@picnmix1974, the garage is a few stops on the bus from la daille...the bus stops outside..., or maybe around 15 minutes walk
If there is music at the danois it will be busier than if not. You could reserve three booth tables

@picnmix1974, sorry, misread...thought you were staying at la daille. Le garage is on the way to la daille on the left, opposite Bar XV. Pretty close to petit danois

I don't know Val d'Isere well, but I imagine that it will not be in full swing that early in the season. Though by the same token they should be glad of a big lively group!

@picnmix1974, It will be busier than you think that week in town with plenty atmosphere whereever you go, so you are right to plan ahead. The restaurants shut down around 1 September and re open the end of November so don’t expect being able to book too far in advance.
For the UK market it’s a big University week so they bring there own liveliness, also as some private schools have broken up for the festive holidays many family’s take advantage of the cheaper early season prices.
Also not sure of the exact dates on the FIS racing calendar yet for December but traditionally that’s also the week of the Ladies downhill in Val d’Isere.
Add in the arrival of the British Army ski group for 6 weeks.
Town is busy but the slopes are very quiet.
As a large group I’m guessing your accommodation provider can help with reservations when the season starts.
If you want a traditional fondue/raclette look at Corniche, Fondue Factory, Barillion.
