cafe 月ノ農（ツキノミノリ）

A 1-minute walk from Shimura-sakaue Station, its appearance like an 'urban greengrocer' along Nakasendo Road is a landmark.
The exterior, retaining the retro charm of a former traditional Japanese coffee shop, and the colorful seasonal vegetables lined up under the eaves, warmly welcome passersby.

The interior is a retro and calm space that retains the charm of a former traditional Japanese coffee shop.
The bright window-side seats, integrated with the interior, are designated for dog owners.
The appeal is that you can spend time together feeling the calm atmosphere inside the store, rather than on a secluded terrace.

Our Commitment

The menu at 'cafe Tsuki no Nou' features the 'original deliciousness' of farm-fresh vegetables.
With careful preparation like 50-degree washing and low-temperature steaming, vegetables are slowly cooked over time to maximize their sweetness and nutrients.
We focus on minimal seasoning, offering powerful flavors that delight the body, such as chewy 'aged brown rice' and 'aged baked sweet potatoes' overflowing with syrup.

Must-Try Dishes!

Gut-Health Brown Rice Lunch Plate

It's truly a dish like an edible supplement.
Chewy 'aged brown rice' matured for several days, and over 10 kinds of seasonal vegetables with enzymes preserved through low-temperature steaming.
The luxurious composition, which incorporates the power of fermentation and the natural nutrients of the ingredients, is also ideal for those conscious of detox.
As you savor the rich flavors of the ingredients, you'll feel a sense of purification from within, both in mind and body.

*Limited to 20 servings, reservations possible.

Aged Baked Sweet Potato

Using a special pot and slowly baking it with radiant heat from a distance, the sweet potato becomes incredibly sticky and rich, overflowing with syrup.
The ultimate sweetness, brought out by carefully aging it after harvest, is so rich it's hard to believe it's sugar-free.
It's delicious warm, of course, but when chilled, you can enjoy a luxurious taste reminiscent of high-end imo-yokan (sweet potato jelly).

Desserts

The appeal lies in the 'healthy and natural sweetness' that brings out the power of the ingredients.
Our 'Tsubu-an Jelly' and 'Zenzai' (sweet red bean soup), cooked with organic brown sugar and 'Christmas Island salt' without white sugar, are antioxidant sweets packed with fluffy adzuki beans slowly simmered in a Zero Pressure Pot.
And for a limited time, a mini cheesecake luxuriously topped with 'Ibaraki Kiss,' a variety exclusive to Ibaraki, is available.
You can savor this limited-time harmony where the freshness of strawberries directly from the farm resonates with the rich cheesecake's tartness and sweetness.

Smoothies

The smoothies at 'cafe Tsuki no Nou' are a concentrated cup that fully captures the umami of seasonal vegetables.
By using 50-degree washing and low-temperature steaming to maximize the sweetness of the ingredients, the only ingredients are vegetables and water.
The carrot smoothie directly from Yamamoto Farm, which our staff tasted this time, was incredibly rich despite being sugar-free, a luxurious experience of directly drinking the blessings of the earth.
Additionally, dog-friendly plates are provided, so you can share the healthy deliciousness with your beloved dog.

Blissful Drinks That Restore Mind and Body

Drinks are based on two pillars: quality and healing.
The coffee, carefully brewed cup by cup from home-roasted beans selected by the coffee-loving owner, is an authentic delight with a blissful aroma.
On the other hand, a wide variety of herbal teas such as 'Yomogi Tea' and 'Burdock Tea' offer a gentle flavor that warms the body from within.
Furthermore, we also offer a free refill service for 'Sayu' (plain hot water), which is great for detox.
Our carefully crafted drinks and warm hospitality will help keep your mind and body healthy.
