November 27, 2025Flew into KLWS for the first time a week ago. Beautiful area and fine welcoming airport tower and FBO. Got inexpensive fuel at Hillcrest aviation and used their tidy facilities. Asked if there was an on airport restaurant, nope, but they cheerfully offered a crew car if I wanted to go get a bite at a local eating place. Will return and take them up on that next occasion!

May 24, 2025Stopped in Lewiston for a bite to consume. Parked at Hillcrest. We were met on the ramp by Hillcrest's kind faces. They had a crew car warming up for us before we even exited the plane. They topped us off while we were out to dine. Highly recommend Mystic Cafe in town. It's about a 10 minute ride from the airport. As others have mentioned, tower was super friendly!
