Yamanakako, Yamanashi, Japan｜Papermoon

If you're in the area it's a must. The food & drinks are pricey but make it a special occasion! Adorable shop, such a lovely atmosphere, and scrumptious desserts.

Maybe they need to limit people to bring 1 dog per person on the small terrace with only 5 tables. Last time 2 people brought 2 dogs each so 4 dogs for just 2 people, plus 3 other dogs, meant 7 dogs for 3 tables! Maybe people should have some consideration for other customers and be more reasonable. It’s too many. We’ve been several times. It’s very popular and you’ll likely need to wait 20-30 minutes. They certainly have a steady stream of customers! Since it’s all baked fresh daily, they are bound to sell out of the most popular pies later in the day. Their seating system is very smooth. The warm pies with ice cream are the best choices, I think. There is outdoor seating seasonally. The service is fast and friendly. Take-out is available.

My friends and I went there late afternoon and they only had 2 pies left to choose. 🥲 Nonetheless, the cherry pie was really good with the vanilla ice cream. The variety of teas was quite interesting as well. Though their foods are quite pricey, they were tasty and the place just felt magical and relaxing. 😊
