My favorite cafe in Kyoto! We always make a point to stop when we are in the city. In my opinion they make the best matcha latte in Japan! Their breakfasts are very good and I recently tried the hamburg stew which was so dreamy on a cold day. I highly reccomend! I also highly reccomend any of their cookies or desserts. Don't forget to bring cash as they do not take credit cards. The menus have English on them so it makes it easy to order got tourists. The staff is always very friendly. I can not wait to go back!

Whimsical, casual and charming, this hidden gem is worth finding. Just across the street from the beautiful rock garden temple, this restaurant is named after a children's story book, features waffles and desserts, and has great coffee. A perfect stop for a sight seeing day.

Chanced upon the cafe while taking a pitstop in the midst of hiking to one of the shrine that's open at night. Also partially due to the fact that bus 56 going there did not turn up on time. Waffles with caramel and banana are best I have ever eaten. Highly recommended.

After some quiet moments at Ryuuan-ji temple, I came this cafe. Spacious bright dining space with cooking counter. There is a little book shelf. The best thing here was their butter chicken curry:) Must try. I wish I could go back. Absolutely lovely.

Overpriced taking account of the service and the taste of the drinks. Went on a Sunday, almost every table was taken but only one staff was serving. The waffles took over thirty minutes to be served.

初めて伺ったのは、かれこれ20年以上前の高校生の頃。宮沢賢治の世界観に期待を膨らませ、ドキドキしながらあの階段を降りたことを覚えています。 その後のインバウンドの影響で足が遠のきましたが、コロナ禍で少し落ち着いた今回、堂本印象美術館の帰りに久しぶりに伺いました。ちなみに、美術館から歩いても5〜10分くらいです。 日曜日のお昼で満席に近い状況でしたが、それほど待つことなく席に案内されました。 ただ、他の方も書かれているように、注文からお料理の提供までがすごく待ちます。お腹ペコペコだったり観光途中で次の目的地がある場合は注意が必要です。お店の方がとても忙しそうに立ち回られていて、逆にこちらが気を使ってしまいそうになりました。 オーダーしたサンドイッチはドリンクとセットで1,800円、山猫パフェは単品で1,450円と、なかなか強気のお値段でした。観光地ならこんなものでしょうか。昔と同じとは期待していませんでしたが、久しぶりに来た地元民にとっては少し驚きの値段でした。でも、サンドイッチもパフェもお味は美味しかったです。 少しセコい考え方ですが、もし再訪するとしたら、平日の比較的空いている時間帯に、お値段分ゆっくりお茶しに来るのが良さそうです。 ※サンドイッチの写真は、撮る前にお腹が空き過ぎて一つ食べてしまった後のものです。汚くてすみません。
