Cafe Ikkyu

The representative dishes that can be enjoyed here are 100% buckwheat zaru soba and soba porridge. The 100% zaru soba uses Hitachi Aki buckwheat from Kinasagō, and it is rich in aroma and texture, making it exquisite. To maximize the flavor of the buckwheat, it is carefully handmade every day.
