Run to this brewery & coffee shop off track and far away from the tourists attractions of Lake Kawaguchi. Enjoy the Lake Sakai at the same time it’s amazing and we were the only one.

We stopped in here on a rainy afternoon in October 2025 and it was everything we wanted. They have awesome beers (Jasmine IPA was a personal favorite), a cute tasting room, great snack and light meal options, and a full coffee menu. I had the ChIcken Crepe and my wife had the chocolate scone and both were excellent. The staff were friendly as well! We arrived very wet from the rain and the staff got us a towel to dry our clothes off! I highly recommend stopping here!

This was a delightful cafe with a very welcoming staff after I called a hike early because I was tired. Delicious home brewed beers as well.

Everything about this place feels modern rustic, clean, and casual. The decorations inside and just how the building is laid out is amazing you’ve got seating outside good music, clean toilets. All nestled in a quiet little town nested around Fuji. If I was local, I would be a regular move to Yokohama お願いします

Had a houjicha latte which was really nice. There are lots of options for food and drink but since I’m vegetarian there wasn’t much in the way of food that I could eat. It’s in a quiet area with a great atmosphere and the girl that served me was very kind and helpful.
