A cheery café with natural desserts sure to make you smile
This cafe is run by Genmyoan Ryokan, a culinary inn founded in the middle of the Edo period. In contrast to traditional style tea houses, this building has large windows that let in lots of light. The building itself is an old warehouse that has been renovated with a European design concept. The cafe serves organic desserts, sandwiches, paninis and other light meals. These dishes are made by thoughtfully choosing from the best local ingredients like Tanegashima's soybean sugar, or Tamba's free range eggs. And the restaurant is a 1-minute walk from both Amanohashidate Station, and the famous Amanohashidate land bridge. And right across from the cafe is the road that leads to Amanohashidate’s Viewland cable car and chair lifts. Even if you have already eaten, you can stop by for a glass of wine, local sake, or additive=free cider out on the terrace.
from the chef:
We believe in making desserts that are gentle on the body, and you can pair them with organic coffee or tea. We also recommend the souvenirs here. In addition to cakes and tarts, we also have a wide range of baked goods such as soy sauce flavored walnuts: organic walnuts caramelized with soy sauce. We also have financiers, galettes, and florentines. We also sell some of the organic ingredients we serve here, as well as Miyazu specialties, pottery, and glassware.
Scone and homemade jam with cream and a drink
Hokkaido flour, fermented butter, and organic soymilk are used to make the scones, seasonal jam, and cream. Each item can be ordered individually as well for 308 yen (tax included).

Cheesecake
A smooth textured French cream cheese and local [Hiraya milk] yogurt are used to make this cheesecake. With a drink, the set costs 1,045 yen (tax included).
572 yen (tax included)
Pear tart
Very popular item. Large chunks of pear are baked into a tart that uses a sugar made with 100% sugar cane so that the tart isn’t overpowered or saccharine.
