Cozy with tasty cakes - Edit
Stopped on our way back from Iwatayama Monkey Park. The selection was limited (4/5 choices), so we decided to try grape tart and chocolate brownie cake.
Read moreThe tart was very delicious and light, but chocolate brownie cake was dry and very crumbly. All in all, a nice place to take a quick break.
Pros: Peaceful
Cons: Few options

vegan ICE CREAM !!!! - Edit
When I have the chance to get vegan ice cream (other than sorbet) I usually take it. And this place is 100% vegan.
Read moreI was walking at the nice river and saw it on happy cow so of course I went there.
As I am a big gourmand I tried two ice cream sandwiches (small and delicious) and also „had“ to take some of the cakes (would have loved to try them all but this was even for me too much as there were 10 different styles)… so I took three. Delicious! Prices for the cakes are really ok I would say. (550 p.p.), the ice cream sandwiches are 600 each.
Pros: Vegan ice cream , the variety of cakes

Ice and cake delicious - Edit
It was hard to decide because it looked all so good!
Read moreWe’ve finally chosen the sandwich icecream: strawberry and matcha, both great.
And the Japanese water chestnut cake (for breakfast the next morning😜)
Wish we would have such a café in Germany next to us. 💕
Pros: Tasty, Lots of choices, Nice staff

Nearly perfect! - Edit
Great choice of cake, as well as good coffee to hand drip by yourself. But you have to order right at the entrance which puts quite some pressure in your shoulders if you can't decide fast

Great! - Edit
Both and cake and tea was delicious. The Café has a beautiful esthetic and vibe. Relaxing indie/folk music as well. Perfect spot for a treat, to read a book, and to hide away from the rain.

The cake and tea is super delicious. You can get a set which is a piece of cake and a drink for 1000 yen, which is a super fair good price :)

Vegan cake - Edit
They are vegan, so that’s a plus. The cakes were fine. I tried to order a glass of hot plant based milk I was craving for but that wasn’t possible. I think however they must have plant based milk for coffee latte. I ordered tea, but it was undrinkable because when it arrived there’s a giant tea bag already in the tea. By the time I got the tea and noticed it was undrinkable strong and bitter. The Rooibos is a better choice… Must be OK if you immediately take care of the tea bag; my attention was on the cake and the plates everyone received.

Amazing cake - Edit
Probably the best cake I've had, it was the tofu chocolate cake. Not too sweet, cold so yummy. I decided to take it away as it was basically half the price to take away. Definitely have to try if you are at the Forrest/ monkeys.

Probably the best chocolate cake I’ve ever had! Most of their cakes are tofu based, and just have just the right amount of sweetness. The place is really cute with lots of space and plants
