🪟 [Kanagawa・Kita-Kamakura Cafe Minka] A quiet old-style cafe tucked away in an alleyway where time stands still

🪟 [Kissa Minka, Kita-Kamakura, Kanagawa] A quiet old-style cafe tucked away in an alleyway where time stands still I was just planning to make a quick detour, but I ended up completely captivated. A few minutes' walk from Kita-Kamakura Station, down a narrow street in a residential area, you'll find "Kissa Minka," a warm cafe renovated from an old house built over 80 years ago, that feels like visiting a friend's house. It's a place where you can forget about your plans and relax during your trip. ⸻ ☕️ What I experienced here - Handmade cakes and carefully brewed coffee. Time to savor the taste as if taking a deep breath in the silence - A space enveloped in the scent of wood. The sound of the records playing in the store makes you feel like you're rewinding time. ・The popular cheesecake and seasonal scones are sold out if you don't go early. ⸻ 🚶♀️ Access ・About a 5-minute walk from Kita-Kamakura Station on the JR Yokosuka Line ・The surrounding area is also recommended for visiting quiet temples and shrines, such as Engaku-ji Temple and Tokei-ji Temple. ⸻ 🍂 Recommended season ・Spring: Plum and cherry blossoms, paired with a leisurely spring stroll in Kita-Kamakura ・Autumn: A beautiful season of autumn leaves. There are many tourists, but this is the only place where the tranquility is maintained. ⸻ 🎒 Travel tips ・Visit in small groups ◎ It's a shop where you can enjoy the quiet atmosphere, so it's ideal to keep conversations to a minimum. ・Books and magazines are also available, making it perfect for solo travelers. ・It's recommended to stop by on your way to a leisurely walk between the Kita-Kamakura and Kamakura areas. ⸻ The reason for traveling may be to regain the "quiet time" that is often lost in everyday life. Why not find your own story in this coffee shop, a little away from the hustle and bustle? ⸻ #CoffeeMinka #KitaKamakuraCafe #OldFolkCafe #KamakuraTrip #KanagawaTourism #SoloTrip #CoupleTrip #DomesticTrip #AbsolutelyFreeTrip #QuietTime #CheeseCakeAndCoffee
