Chalet Suisse at Somerset House by Jimmy-Garcia

The Chalet by Jimmy Garcia

Visitors in search of the finest, alpine-inspired, delicious food and festive tipples need look no further than Skate this season. Set away from the ice, nestled in Somerset House's West Wing, The Chalet, from pop-up legend Jimmy Garcia, brings the tastes of the Alps to Skate.

 “Jimmy Garcia the pop-up king” 

Evening Standard

“You know what’s even tastier than cheese? Charcuterie dipped into a bowl of  bubbly, boozy cheese at Jimmy’s Pop-up.” 

Time Out

A few years ago Jimmy hosted his very own ski chalet in the Alps where he served beautiful food to guests after their days on the slopes. Our winter pop-up at Somerset House embodies the same cosy, alpine hospitality - showcasing the best mountain cuisine but using the finest British ingredients including native cheeses and cured meats to enjoy pre or après Skate. 

The cosy, chalet-themed restaurant invites visitors to indulge in a seasonal menu of winter favourites and warming drinks, serving the best in festive feasting.  

“The hot cocktails! It’s worth a visit for one of these alone.”
