Ueda, Nagano, Japan｜hanatoki

I love this cafe! The owners are very friendly and kind. I bought tea and coffee beans to bring home. Their coffee bean roasting is excellent. I make espresso at home and their bean selection and roasting technique is great, their recommended beans were perfect for espresso.

It is located near the closest parking lot (paid) at Bessho Onsen/Kitamukai Kannon. It used to be a store for bread and sweets ``marufuji''. There is a parking lot opposite the store. 2-3 cars can be parked (there is a signboard). I was able to get in smoothly as the time was just right. There is a cafe in the back that sells muffins and bowls. I received the popular pudding. The pudding was a little hard and the bittersweet caramel was good. The apple cheesecake just came out and it was delicious too. There are counter seats, so it seemed like you could relax even if you were alone. You can also take out coffee etc. I bought muffins and muffin rusks as souvenirs. Both were delicious, but I especially liked the rusks made with delicious muffins. I would like to visit again when I visit.

A renovated cafe located in Bessho Onsen. So cute. It's worth a visit. A shop where you can enjoy delicious muffins and home-roasted coffee. There was also a Tozhong tea latte, so while I was hesitant, I ordered a banana and walnut muffin, pudding, and a cafe latte. Everything was very delicious. I want to come again♪ Please note that it is only open on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
