Food is Great but feels a little limited! Love the waffles on sticks dessert. Most of it, the tranquil environment the cafe is in makes up for the plus part. Accessibility is not the easiest by car. A good venue to chill out and chat the afternoon away with friends and family!

This place offers food that was both nice tasting and nicely presented. The staff was friendly and super sweet, one of the girls spoke excellent English. The place itself is nice, clean, modern style with Japanese characteristics and has an open, covered veranda overlooking the river and the foliage. Honestly, you won't find a better place in the area. Accepted contactless card payment.

It’s a nice place to stop by after the Minoh waterfall hike. The menu is limited, but it’s not bad - they just make sure that what they offer tastes great. We ordered yuzu cheesecake set (which comes with a drink of your choice) and the little treasure. The little treasure is not for everyone, I must admit, tastes ok, in my opinion. The cheesecake was great. There’s not too much place here, so you’ll sit very near to other people. The prices are a little higher than in general in Japan. Card payments are accepted here.

Depending on how is your trip directed, you can either have a nice coffe with their special desert or an orange juice right before your trip to the falls or have a nice lunch after you are done.

This restaurant offers a different dining experience. The food is a cross between yuzu, Japanese cuisine, and French cuisine, and was delicious. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very nice, and they use ingredients that are kind to the environment, animals, and people, such as food loss and fair trade.

Delicious and happiness delicious ice creams with happiness from amazingly beautiful scenery. What more can you ask for? It is a 2.6 km walk-up a mountain but so serene and scenic with amazing architecture along the way I had to take a photo of my wifes ice cream as I couldn't resist eating some. And the waffle biscuit is so very very good. I could eat this every day if I didn't have to worry about my health.

A wonderful place to have a meal or cafe break in Minoh! We had a great curry rice and gratin. It was a perfect blend of Japanese and French. I do not recall eating a more delicate curry! It’s a small space so you write your name and details in the pad and wait outside. And they had amazingly kind service too! We left our kids water bottle there and Ukita-san personally ensured we got it back! It was a simple bottle but meant a lot to our daughter so we are very grateful.
