Five places to eat in Kuusamo town, 22 km south of Ruka: two lunch buffets, a French café, a pub-restaurant and a sports bar at the spa hotel.
The town centre, 22 km south of the Ruka slopes.
Kuusamo town is 22 km south of the Ruka slopes, and its tables keep different hours from the resort's. Talonpöytä on Kirkkotie and Torin Vintti upstairs in the Torikeskus building both serve a weekday lunch buffet, The French Café on Kitkantie bakes pastries and holds a Sunday brunch once a month, and Wanha Mestari on Ouluntaival is the pub-restaurant. O'Learys is in the Holiday Club Kuusamon Tropiikki spa hotel, about 4 km north of the centre.
Ruka is 22 km north of the town and has its own page.
Most places in the centre are daytime places: the lunch buffets serve on weekdays only, so plan dinner ahead.
Kuusamo belongs to North Ostrobothnia rather than Lapland proper.
