The restaurant on the airfield is excellent
I was there with some friends yesterday Thursday 21 May, 2015. Flying in from Luxembourg (ELLX) We had lunch at the restaurant on the airfield. The "entrecôte" (steak) I had was the best I ever ate during my past (65) years: tender, no fat, tasty. BTW, the landing tax was 8.5 €, quite reasonable.

Wrong map display for LFHV
Actually the airport is slight North of the current location of the small aircraft icon. You may want to adjust the map parameters in the Main page. Hope it helps.
