Amazing Curry

The vegetarian (vegan) curry was spectacular. The owner is also very friendly and kind, and the atmosphere is cozy and relaxed.

Good food and atmosphere

This is one of only two vegan options we found in Yufuin. Most of the dishes are not vegan but some can be made vegan for 300 yen extra. The spicy curry wasn’t really spicy, but it was good. Vegan scones were also good.

Vegan food in Yufuin

Finally found and authentic vegan Japanese food in Yufuin! Is 6 minutes walk straight from Yufuin station. A homey little restaurant that feels like a little heaven! There’s vegan meal, desert, coffee with oat mills options.

Pros: Vegan Japanese taste, Oat milk option for coffee, Vegan pastry and deserts

Cons: Little sitting space

Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere

I had the the curry, a coffee and the scone. It was all very nice, the curry in particular. The waiter spoke English perfectly and was happy to alter a couple of the dishes to make them vegan. Would definitely visit again, I want to try the vegan pancakes.

Pros: Tasty, Relaxed atmosphere, Fast service

Cons: Limited vegan options

Very nice and well priced vegetarian set which could be made vegan. Very cosy atmosphere as well, would be 5 star but they serve meat. Definitely recommend!

Tasty food - the vegan karaage chicken set and vegan curry were highlights. The staff speak English and were very accomodating to allergies too.

Soy Karage set

They have three vegetarian options- curry and sets using soy ‘meat’. They can cater to vegans, gluten free and allergies. Really delicious food and sweet cafe.

Pros: Soy ‘’meat’, Friendly owners

Amazing vegan chick'n

We had the soy fried chicken platter which was incredible and all vegan (we checked with our server). Rice, miso soup, pumpkin, aubergine with miso paste, potatoes with salsa and crispy delicous chick'n.

There were several other vegan options on the menu too.

Be warned this is the only vegan friendly cafe we could find.

Pros: Lots of options and beautiful decor

Cons: None!!!!

Pleasant and delicious

It was quite a surprise to find a vegan-friendly Cafe restaurant in rural Japan.
Food was delicious, resonably priced and the staff was kind.

Why does it only allow 4 stars?

This is 5 stars all the way! Delicious organic coffee, lentil curry, the best soy fried "chicken" I've ever had, and a spectacular warm banana scone served with maple syrup and coconut milk. So good. My wife bought a necklace there too, otherwise our bill would have totalled only 2700 yen. Highly recommended! We'll be back for sure.
