Riverside Adventure

The temples and shrines at Ohara are well worth the trek outside of Kyoto, but where to eat while you are there? Ohara Riverside Cafe Kirin is a good choice. If no one in your party is fluent in Japanese, I’d recommend bringing along a card that explains your dietary needs. Once they understood what we were asking for, staff was very kind, supportive and helpful. And the food was absolutely delicious! A real taste of Japanese home style cuisine. Fresh, simple, bringing out the natural flavors of fresh vegetables straight from the farm.

Pros: Comfortable, rustic space with a nice atmosphere., Fresh local produce prepared simply. , Friendly and helpful staff.

Cons: Menu is in Japanese. , Staff don’t speak much English. , Vegan vs. non-vegan items are not clearly marked.

You can choose five onigiri to go with your buffet meal. Not all options are vegan, however, so it’s best to ask the staff. at Ohara Riverside Cafe Kirin in Kyoto
