Built between 1959 and 1965 by architect Ivan Bodnaruk, the structure is a fine example of traditional Hutsul wooden architecture — constructed entirely without nails, using only wooden joints, just like old Hutsul homes.
Located just 15 meters from the Probiy Waterfall on the Prut River — one of Yaremche’s most iconic natural landmarks — the restaurant has become an integral part of the local tourist scene. At the entrance, visitors are greeted by wooden statues of a Hutsul man and woman, while the windows offer stunning views of the river and surrounding hills.
Inside, the restaurant recreates the ambiance of a 19th-century Hutsul home. You’ll find a ceramic-tiled stove from Kosiv, hand-embroidered towels, carved wooden furniture, clay dishware, and woolen bedspreads — all handcrafted by local artisans.
The menu features classic Hutsul cuisine: mushroom soup, banosh with bryndza (sheep cheese), trout in sour cream, knyshi (savory pies), and fried porcini mushrooms. Dishes are served in hand-painted ceramic ware made in Kosiv.
Hutsulshchyna is more than just a restaurant — it's a cultural landmark and officially recognized heritage site that draws thousands of visitors every year, preserving the unique spirit of Hutsul craftsmanship and tradition.
