コーヒー処 日光 鉢石宿 — Restaurant in Nikko

BEST cup of coffee I’ve ever had. The place doesn’t look very modern and trendy, but it has charm. It is more of a kissaten, a traditional Japanese coffee shop. Definitely stop by and try the coffee and the yuba pudding, you will not regret it. I had the special blend coffee, though more expensive than other options, this was the best cup of coffee I have ever had.

While leaving she also made us pretty little cranes that just made the whole adventure pretty...

Really strange place. There's only 2 or 3 small tables in the place, so doesn't really seem like a cafe. The little old lady who works there or owns it seems to be struggling to keep the place running. Took a good 15-20 minutes from ordering 2 coffee to receive them, but I don't say that in a negative way. She was incredibly friendly and welcoming and it had a small town local charm. I'm sure there are much nicer places in town but you'd feel like you were in any japanese town or city. The coffee was nice and cost 1000 yen for 2. They also serve some...
