Located at the base of the Valley Express, inside the Blue Mountain Inn, The Pottery Alpine Restaurant is a fixture of the Blue Mountain experience. Drawing inspiration from Jozo’s entrepreneurial spirit and his love for the mountains, the restaurant’s design echoes the rustic charm of Alpine lodges.
The menu at The Pottery Alpine Restaurant showcases a fusion of the flavours and harvests of the Georgian Bay region with the flavours of Jozo’s ancestral home in Eastern Europe. Whether you’re looking for an intimate dining experience, or bringing together a large gathering, come in and enjoy delicious menu items including seared scallop risotto or the classic alpine schnitzel.
