(Translated by Google) I went out to eat in nature, but the result was disappointing. First of all, if you are not good at insects, we recommend the inside of the store. If you feel the wind and want to eat on the terrace, it's full of insects. An inchworm on the shoulder, a spider on the arm, a few caterpillars on the feet, and a bee flying. .. .. I couldn't sit calmly. I ate with a half cry. I think the food is delicious. The dressing was delicious. But the offer is very slow. Also, there is a parking lot in front of the shop, a little down the slope, but everywhere is small. If you have a long car or a big car, it seems to be difficult to get out depending on where you park. (Original) 自然の中で食事をしたいと思い遠出しましたが残念な結果に。先ず、虫が苦手な方は店内がオススメです。風を感じて、食事をしたいとテラスにしたら虫だらけ。肩には尺取虫、腕にはクモ、足元には毛虫が数匹、蜂が飛んでくる。。。と言った感じで落ち着いて座って居られず。半泣きで食事しました。食事は美味しいと思います。ドレッシングが美味しかったです。でも、提供はすこぶる遅いです。あと、駐車場ですが、お店の前、坂を少し下ったところにありますが、どこも狭いです。前が長い車や大きい車の方は停める場所によっては出る時大変みたいでした。

(Translated by Google) As you can see, the waiting time for delivery is long. In a past review, the owner wrote that there was an explanation when entering the store, but that was not the case. I made an appointment for 11:00, but it took over an hour. And already quite a few lunch menus were out of stock. . Even if the food is fashionable and delicious, I thought that the taste would be halved. Also, the sofa seat had a low desk and was quite difficult to eat. And... I think it can't be helped to some extent, but there was a hair in the pasta, which was disappointing. When I looked at it, the cooks didn't have hats, so... The women on the floor seemed to be working very hard, but perhaps because they were busy, they didn't smile, and the way they responded was like, "I'll be there soon! I understand!" was. (Was one of them the most rookie? The lady with pigtails was very smiling and made a good impression!) (Original) みなさんのおっしゃる通り、提供までの待ち時間がとにかく長いです。 過去のクチコミで、入店時に説明があるとオーナーの方が書かれていましたが、それもなかったです。11時に予約していきましたが、1時間以上かかりました。 そして既にかなりのランチメニューが品切れでした。。 せっかくお料理がオシャレで美味しくても、これでは味が半減だなぁと思いました。 また、ソファ席は机が低くかなり食べづらかったです。 そして…ある程度しょうがないとは思うのですが、パスタに髪の毛が入っていて、残念でした。見ると、調理の方々は帽子などもなかったので… フロアの女性の方々は、一生懸命働いている感じがあったのですが、忙しさからか笑顔がなく、返事の仕方も「いまいきますから！わかってます！」のような印象を受けるものでした。 （1人、1番新人ぽかった？おさげの女性の方はとても笑顔で好印象でした！）

(Translated by Google) There was a very sullen person among the staff, and I felt sad every time I was dealt with. The food was fashionable, but it was thin and unsatisfactory. The atmosphere is nice, but it was too dark to see the menu, and it was hard to tell what I was eating. Depending on the seat, there is a light bulb lighting at the height of an adult's forehead, making it difficult to have a conversation. I had heard that it was a popular store, so I was looking forward to it, but I was really shocked by the coldness of the staff. (Original) 店員さんの中でとても不機嫌な方がいて、対応される度悲しい気持ちになりました。 料理は、おしゃれではありますが、薄く物足りない感じでした。 雰囲気は良いのですが、暗すぎてメニューがよく見えないし、食べてる時もなに食べてるのかわかりにくかったです。 席によっては、大人のおでこくらいの高さに電球照明があり、会話がしづらいです。 人気店と聞いていたので楽しみにしていましたが、店員さんの冷たさには本当にショックでした。

駐車場🅿️が狭く大きい車🚗³₃では混雑時は駐車しづらいです。 天気が良く暖かかったので外のテーブルにしました。 寛ぐには丁度いい椅子とテーブルでしたが、食事を摂るには少しテーブルが低いです。 ロケーションはいいですが、外のカフェだと落ち葉が落ちて来たり虫が飛んでます。 これから日中も肌寒くなるのでひざ掛け等を提供してくれると嬉しいです。

M here at 19/11/17and it’s 3:30 pm , I heard a lot of this place but it did not meet my expectations as there is a lots of unavailability in the menu and the staff seems tired . Every time they have to go to kitchen to check the available . Bad timing for me may be . Going to be first and last visit.

Really cool cafe and space! Both the food and drinks were great—perhaps too great. The cafe was quickly inundated with customers, and the staff seemed overwhelmed. They were unable to remember requests for refills and couldn’t attend to the register. Worth checking out, but I recommend going early on a weekday or when you’ve got plenty of time to kill.

One of the best stays & dining experiences I have ever experienced in Japan.

This place is so little and cute. I only went to one cafe but I'll add this to my list. Loved it. The atmosphere was great. The place smelled really good and I love the rustic look. Very home.

Here's an English review: if you find yourself in Daigo, come to this place. No question, no hesitation. Amazing food, amazing ambience, awesome staff despite whatever language barriers may exist. I'm here as an AirBnB guest right now, but the cafe itself is absolutely worth coming to.

Went with a group of 7 for dinner. The service was fast and everyone was more than satisfied with their meals. The aesthetic is perfectly curated which makes for a memorable experience. I would recommend this place for anyone visiting the area. You can even book a bed and breakfast room. I myself, will be returning to this fine establishment.

席を予約して行きました テラスもあり晴れてる日なら お庭を眺めながらノンビリ 古民家を改造した 素敵な雰囲気です 駐車場はあるけど狭い 狭いの得意な人なら良いけど 何度も切り替えして入れました 食事は頼んでから１時間位可かかりました お昼休みにちょっとランチのレベルではないので時間の余裕を持って行きましょう！ あとから、あとから客足は途切れず満席状態です お客様がまだ？なんて声も聞こえてきて 順番にお作りしてますと話してました サンドイッチマンのＴＶにも出たくらいだから仕方ありません 常陸牛のライスボールを頼みました 美味しかったです！

Saku Café is a hidden gem! We stayed there for about a week and everything was perfect. The building itself is beautiful and inviting, an old house remodeled by LEMS-san himself and turned into a mix of guest rooms and café. It's only a 5 minute walk from Hitachi-Daigo station (though if you are carrying suitcases you may want to get a taxi, as it's uphill and not fully paved), and well-positioned if you're looking to bike or drive to various Daigo highlights like Fukuroda falls, Tsukimachi falls (have nagashi somen there while you're at it!), and various onsens. The room was big, clean and comfortable. The toilet and bathroom are shared with one more room but lucky for us it was not taken. The cafe itself is open to guests and outsiders until 10pm, so you can grab some dinner and cocktails and enjoy the peaceful Daigo night from the patio! Lastly, LEMS-san is an incredible host. He is helpful, kind, and very fun to be around. If you're into music, make sure to ask about his songs!
