EVL Bowling and Tim and Bonnie's Pizza are located within the same plaza, at 8 Bristol Lane. Follow 219 out of town past Tops and turn left on Fillmore Drive. Bristol is off Fillmore just behind the houses. It's a large plaza, and EVL Bowling and Tim and Bonnie's are on the left hand side as you drive in. Great pizza - they deliver too! And bowling is always fun!

Worth the short 10 minute drive out of town to visit this quaint family run distillery. Great samples, and ask Paul to give you a tour and explain the process of how they make their yummy Apple distilled vodka and corn whiskey. Soon they will be adding their gin, apple pie moonshine, and bourbon to the mix. Great cocktails, and lovely people to chat with!

My favourite store in EVL. Love the little finds you can get every time you go, from jewelry, to pottery and everything in between. Amazing card selection at the back.
