    This is a drive-in-café located on the seaward side of highway 134, in the middle of the Shichirigahama beachfront parking lot. From the terrace seats and inside, one can see Enoshima and Mt. Fuji. Opening at 8am on weekends and holidays, one can enjoy a relaxed breakfast like a true Hawaiian local.

    A 20 minute walk or a 10 minute bus ride from Enoshima Electric Railway Yuigahama Station. A guesthouse operating out of an old Japanese-style home standing quietly in the Zaimokuza neighborhood, an area which once flourished as a port town.

The café serves home-style dishes made with fresh, locally-grown vegetables. The café is open to non-guests as well and is a popular place for locals to stop by and relax in.

    This is a modern-atmosphere café renovated from an old Japanese house, a five-minute walk from Enoden Hase Station. It is often visited by the media as a famous local Kamakura attraction. A popular dish is the French toast, its fluffiness giving it the texture of pudding. During mornings, one can enjoy all-you-can-eat bread that is in high demand by mail order.

    The building for this café and store which sells “lifestyle tools” including tableware was remodeled from a warehouse originally selling marine goods located in Hase, Kamakura. The items each have an individual style according to the creator, and all are made with exquisite care.

    ウッドテイストの落ち着いた雰囲気のお店。客席のスペースは大まかに二つに分かれており、入り口部分は入り口のドアの光がふんだんと入るため明るく、奥の方は窓があるものの少々薄暗いです。好みや気分などで座る席を選ぶのもいいかもしれません。 個性的な盛り付けのケーキを中心としたスイーツを堪能することが出来、夏季限定でかき氷も楽しめます(かき氷はとにかくたっぷり食べてもらおうと、盛り付けは豪快です)。店内を彩...

    A café situated inside an old private home located close to Kita-Kamakura Station.

The lunch beef stew and fruit-filled popovers are particularly popular.

    2階の席につきましたが、4組のみでゆったりと座れました。少し寒い日だったのですが、コロナの換気のせいか、薪ストーブの前に座っても少し寒かったです。シチューをいただきましたが、パンよりご飯の方が良かったかもしれません。パンはいまいちでした。 古民家で素敵な作りだと思います。 会計は先に済ませてあるので、帰る時は誰も出てきて来ないのでご馳走様も言えませんでした。 お水はセルフサービスで、最低限のサービ...

Kanagawa Areas

Kanagawa prefecture acts as an extension of the Tokyo metropolis that spills over into coastal towns, most notably Yokohama city, heavily populated and known for its Chinatown and seaside attractions. Just the right distance for a day trip out of Tokyo, Kanagawa is home to some of Tokyo’s most accessible beaches, including around Kamakura, best known for its Big Buddha. Visitors can also travel a little farther afield for a weekend at Hakone onsen town.
