Nice place and staff overall. Smoked whitefish available for sale (25 €/kg), along with sandwiches, sweets, ice cream and souvenirs. The toilet, which is in a separate building and costs 1€ to use (free for customers), looks like it has stuck some 50-60 years back in time, but the seats themselves are clean like at home; kudos for that. High prices aside, the only downside I found is that our wooden table was shaky. [28 July 2023]

Great place to have a break right beside rapids. We had ice creams, but there was also freshly smoked whitefish available.
