One of most amazing encounters we had during our trip in Fuji. The owner is an old lady with red hair and she did all the ordering, bartending, cooking, etc. Menu has both English, Japanese and descriptive photos.
For the food, they were super cheap and had decent size. We ordered 2 mains for 3 people and everyone was quite full. The food was in Japanese 喫茶店 style and was much more delicious than I expected.

We ordered hamburger steak and it came with a set of rice and miso soup, the hamburger steak was juicy and tender, recommend!
The interior is very homely, has a countryside European vibe to it with lots of eccentric retro decorations, overall very quiet and relaxing.
After we got up and went to pay, the owner gave us a set of postcards of mount fuji and a chocolate bar as a present, so...
