Gotemba, Shizuoka, Japan｜Country

I had plans to go to a nearby shop for work, and when I arrived earlier than the scheduled time, I found this shop. There was a customer who seemed to know me at the counter, and I was a little surprised when I entered, so I wonder if it's a store that doesn't have many new customers. However, the shop is very polite, and there is only such a menu, so I showed him the drink menu and ordered coffee. I was able to spend a relaxing time in the store with a local handmade feel. The customers who came after me were all familiar, but I felt comfortable without feeling like I was away. The coffee was delicious, and it felt like killing time, but I'm glad I entered!

The taste and atmosphere are of course, but the charm of the owner (Yoshiko) is amazing. The communication and sense of distance with customers is exquisite. If you notice it, conversations will start naturally with the customers (even though you are meeting them for the first time). Conversely, you can quietly read for hours on your own. One day, there was a customer who came to drink here instead of the vending machine, even though it was just a cup of cola. I feel like I understand. A mysterious shop that heals you just by being there💖

2020.9.28 When I come to Gotemba, I stop by. Large parking lot and easy access. Above the shop is an apartment. There are always regular customers sitting at the counter and at tables, and like the owner, they're all friendly, and you'll find yourself chatting with them before you know it. Coffee starts from 400 yen. There aren't many food menus.
