    Small, but nice

    Very cute , and nice place , and food was good and service is lovely. Will back again. The wine just so so , but it doesn’t matter much. Pool table also available to play, and only 5 minuets away from the accommodations.

    Nice cosy bistro in National Park

    There are not that many eating options in National Park. We liked Eivins for the cosy, homey atmosphere in the bistro as well as the window seats where you can see the mountains on a clear day. Generous portions for the food, e.g. for the...More
