👍 Itchi has some amazing views of the mountains and the town. The coffee is not the best, however the owner is super friendly and her strawberry cake was really good. If you do the walking tour maybe pop in for a tea and a cake if you feel that you want a break. People often mention view, coffee, cafe, lovely, friendly,

    Lovely little cafe at the top of a winding road overlooking Takayama and views across to snowy peaks even in Spring (mid-April) when we visited. Stopped for a coffee on our way to a small hill-top park, sat on the veranda enjoying the lovely peace and quiet. Friendly service, English spoken, and a quaint atmosphere of a family run cafe - young family and young children playing on the swing chair and happily greeting us 'gaijin' in their finest English - Kawaii!:). Well worth the walk up out of town to get away for a drink or some food and soak up the view. I think an evening here eating and watching the sunset would have been worth it. Maybe next time!

    We stopped for shelter from the rain In this lovely little Japanese cafe at the top of the hills. Beautiful view on the mountains. Great limonade. Great place to stop on your way to the Kitayama parc for a cosy moment!

    Great cafe to loop into the Shiroyama Trail. Cosy rest stop - especially when it was snowing and -2 degrees outside.

    After a short walk from the village, i arrived to this coffee shop. Very comfy, beautiful, and the two ladies there were super friendly and nice. About the cakes: absolutely mindblowing, delicious, amazing. Made right there with all the care and love that only someone who loves to make this kind of sweets can do. I ate 4 pieces and i could eat 4 more... and 8 more... all of them :)
