Lunch and café restaurant in Parkano
Come for Lunch or Coffee at Raijanholvi
Lunch & Café Restaurant Raijanholvi is located in the heart of Parkano, directly opposite the bus station, in the former bank premises. The building was originally constructed as a solid, dignified bank, which is why Raijanholvi carries a bank-inspired theme. The interior design honors the building’s history: the bank’s original vaults have been preserved, creating a distinctive look and a cozy yet high-quality atmosphere, with a touch of playfulness.
Two Historic Bank Vaults
There are two bank vaults. The smaller vault is located in the banking hall and is decorated with a bank theme for visitors to explore. The larger vault is situated on the lower level and is designed for meetings and dining.
A Unique Setting
Come admire the illuminated stone wall and the robust bank structures that once safeguarded money and securities during the Finnish markka era. The décor is minimalist, modern, and warm, stylishly highlighting the character and structure of this historic building.
Meetings and Private Events
The restaurant offers seating for 80 guests, with a main hall and three meeting rooms. In addition to dining and coffee services, we provide meeting and event arrangements.

From Love for Nature
Raija Laaksonen, the restaurateur behind Raijanholvi in Parkano, has loved nature and wandering in the forests since she was a little girl. Her own brand emerged naturally from the perfect meeting of her initials and her way of thinking.
Love for nature and natural product craftsmanship has become a core value. Raija has wanted to create a handcrafted product that is as natural as possible and rich in authentic flavors, highlighting the colors and tastes of Finnish nature.
