About

Tofu chocolate and matcha cakes, lemon cheesecake, and fruit tarts anchor the all-vegan, gluten-free sweets counter, with brunch toast and seasonal drinks also on the menu. Counter ordering and DIY coffee keep things casual; reviews mention roomy seating near Arashiyama’s Monkey Park, though cake portions can feel small for the price.
