Quaint vegan restaurant

Google Maps has the wrong image and precise location. It shows a warehouse right in front of the cafe. Only the roof of the cafe is visible from the road; see attached photo.

I visited this restaurant with an omnivore friend; we both speak Japanese so no comment as to English accommodation. The menu we received was in Japanese only, but we do not know if there is an English menu.

Apparently you're supposed to make a reservation; we did not, so we had a bit of a wait before the food was ready. We were seated quickly though.

We visited in the summer, and it was very hot as there was no air conditioning other than opening windows.

The amount and taste of the food was good. My friend reports that their "limited edition" lemonade was great, and that he would eat there again although he found it a little pricy. He also wished that the menu was more descriptive as to what exactly we were eating, something I also would've liked.

At the cash register there were several vegan ingredients for sale (dried shiitake, etc).

I ordered the おまかせ野菜定食 (first on menu, see pictures).

Pros: Food was great, Historic building with view of Mt. Bandai, Also sold vegan ingredients

Cons: Very hot during summer, A bit of a wait (though we didn't reserve)
