Best places: Cafes in Iga, Japan

👍👍 It's so cute here! We came as German tourist with no skills in Japanese and where very welcomed. The maids are very helping and compliment a lot and also the other guests where fun. Great experience!

😐 I brought my mom here when she visited Japan. It was kind of embarrassing and quite expensive, 10,000 yen for 1 hour for 4 of us. We got a parfait, a key holder, a drink, and a picture with one of the maids.

👍👍 The Japanese coffee scene is one of the best in the world and this coffee shop not only exemplifies the experience, but also stands at the top of the scene. The Coffee: The Coffee was very condensed and had so much flavor packed into a small espresso shot. The water given to us by the owner helped...

👍👍 My first time in Japan and this was a dream to do, in my group and by my group I mean the people we met there sharing this experience, we all loved it.. saw a few bad reviews that say is too touristy or not authentic but honestly I don’t know what they were expecting, I know this is quick summarized...

👍👍 This is an absolutely wonderful experience! The hosts are incredibly kind and good spirited and the ceremony was very well explained and presented. It included a history lesson, a visual presentation, and we got to make our own tea. The space is cozy, the matcha is very good, and it comes with a sea...

👍👍 First shisha When I entered, I was surprised at how fashionable it was, but the staff welcomed me with smiles. I made a reservation for Saturday afternoon. It wasn't crowded or noisy and had a great atmosphere. When it comes to the feeling of smoking shisha I thought it would be suffocating It was...

Hip coffee shop in snug surrounds presenting light fare, beer & Italian-style coffee drinks.

👍👍 This wasn't just a meal, it was an experience. The chef was absolutely hilarious and kept us entertained throughout the meal. The Kobe beef literally melts in your mouth. Appetizers were also delicious. Even the rice tasted special. Great meal all around. Oh, the chef complaints he's single and is...

😐 Very good meat, but for the price you pay I would expect more of the experience. The place feels very touristy and inauthentic. When we went I think about 90% were tourists. Also the overall quality of the dishes was mediocre and not very creative. The staff was very nice and polite, nothing to com...

👍👍 Fantastic coffee with friendly staff. We decided to come here (after reading the nice reviews) to try it ourselves. We ended up visiting both days we were in the area.

👍👍 Absolutely the best Kobe beef I've ever had! High recommend this restaurant! We had the filet and sirloin from a champion Kobe cow, and it was well worth the money. They even gave us birth certificate with lineage and credentials. What a one of a kind experience. The meat melts in your mouth and is...

Cheerful cafe featuring quirky decor with many teddy bears, plus comfort food like burgers & pizza.

👍👍 It’s hard to capture in a review how wonderful and magical of an experience we had at Teppan Tavern. Hands down the best meal we had in Japan, and probably the most incredible all-around dining experience I’ve ever had! We had a reservation at 5pm and were warmly welcomed by the owners (a married co...

👍👍 Burger was fantastic at an affordable price. The patty was juicy and an absolute delight when topped off with a fried egg. Staff were very friendly as well!

👍👍 MOST AMAZING FOOD EXPERIENCE I EVER HAD!!! The chef and the waiters/waitresses gave us great hospitality! AND THE FOOD! To die for! Me and a friend of mine were lucky enough to be the last two to be served and the chef was kind enough to let us take pictures of his food and even other stuff worthy o...

👍👍 Modern and aesthetically pleasing cafe that you'd want to spend hours in. Coffee's pretty good too though a little citrusy for my liking. Couches and sitting areas here are beautiful and I can literally read here all day.
