A lovely little cafe located only a short walk from Kii-Katsura station. We had a tea/coffee along with a cake set and some jam toast. The chiffon cake was out of this world!! We were served by a sweet old lady who mentioned that she baked the cake herself. Would definitely recommend this spot for an afternoon tea delight.

The portion of Tuna sandwiches was a bit too much but it tastes good. The shop owner was very nice and gave us a tangerine for free

We stopped here to avoid a rain shower and were very pleasantly surprised with what we found. Great hot coffee, really tasty toasted sandwiches, and brilliant cakes. Generous portion sizes and lovely friendly staff.

This tiny restaurant near the Kii-Katsuura station is surprisingly nice. Great sandwiches, the cake set with tea or coffee is very reasonable as well.

We came here twice in two days because the spaghetti bolognese is so yummy. I'll miss it when we leave this area tomorrow. Oh, we also had egg sandwich yesterday which was also heavenly. The bread wasso soft and the eggs were yummy with a slight hint of wasabi mixed in with the mayonnaise. Today, we had the pork cutlet sandwich and that did not disappoint as well. The meat was so tender and this time the outside of the bread was lightly toasted to perfection. Highly recommend.
