Must visit place in Kagoshima

The Cafe is beautiful and cozy, especially on the rainy days I have had in the city. Nagako-san, the owner, was super welcoming and makes a wonderful organic set menu, which includes a vegetable soup. There is a selection of drinks included on the menu, in my 2 visits I have tried the fermented rice and chai latte (with soy milk of course).

The place is full of beautiful ceramics and at a certain time the short-tailed cat comes to visit :-)

The opening hours can be very flexible, so make sure to contact the cafe in advance. Cafe Indigo is currently the only fully vegan place in Kagoshima (November 2024), so a must-visit for vegans who want to support vegan businesses.

Arigato gozaimasu Nagako-san!

Pros: Set menu, Cozy ambience

The Best Organic, Non-GMO, Vegan In Japan

I truly enjoyed my meal here earlier today. I believe this is the only non-gmo, organic, vegan cafe in Japan.

The owner is very kind and considerate.

Pros: Ambiance , Food , Service

Wonderful and homely

This is a tiny cafe off the beaten track run by a very sweet lady, alone.

A set menu is on offer which includes a variety of small dishes, both sweet and savoury, and a savoury soup. It also includes a drink, alcoholic or not.

The food was amazingly good and a real insight into what seemed to be a more authentic Japanese-style way of eating. The owner was extremely attentive and helpful, albeit with very limited English, but it was a real pleasure to have visited.

I would 100% recommend a visit to Indigo Café of you’re in Kagoshima, although keep in mind it only has three tables so you may need to book or wait for one to become free.

In addition the price was great at 1,800¥ per person (around 10GBP).

Pros: 100 vegan and healthy food , Attentive and friendly service , Small and intimate location

Cons: Very few tables so space isn’t guaranteed , Menu items seem to be mainly chosen by the chef

A delicious mix of delightful flavours

Cosy surroundings, nice atmosphere, friendly and efficient service. Lunch was a set menu of rice, soup and about 10 small side dishes on one plate. A wide and delicious variety of flavours in Japanese style. Price was about 1400 yen. Extra for cakes. 100% vegan.

Pros: wide variety of flavours, set menu - don't have to choose what to eat, the local cat came to visit
