If you find yourself wandering through the scenic landscapes of Nagiso in the Kiso District, make sure to stop by cafe yew, a charming cafe nestled along Route 256. This hidden gem might be slightly tricky to discover due to its location on a curve, but once you spot it, you’ll be tempted to step inside and experience its cozy ambiance.

Upon entering cafe yew, you're greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The decor exudes a sense of comfort with bright natural wood tones and soft lighting, creating a homely vibe that instantly puts you at ease. As you settle in, enjoy the gentle sound of thoughtfully curated music that fills the air without overwhelming your senses.

One of the standout features of cafe yew is its diverse menu that undergoes regular changes, offering fresh and seasonal dishes that continually delight returning customers. Highlighted among the must-tries is the flavorful Omelette Rice, which is generously portioned and praised for its rich taste. And don't miss out on the Apple Cheesecake, a perfect balance of sweetness that has earned rave reviews from guests.

Space is never a concern here, thanks to their ample parking that can accommodate cars, motorbikes, and bicycles alike. The strategic location makes it an accessible stop for anyone traveling through the region, especially since quality cafes can be few and far between between 妻籠宿 and 清内路.

国道256線沿いにある居心地の良いお店。 カーブの途中なので通りすがりに見つけて入るのは少し難しいかも。 駐車場は広いので車でもバイクでも自転車でも停める場所には困りません。 ランチメニューはマメに変わり、いつも美味しいです。 デザートも甘さが丁度良くて何度も行っています、気になった人は是非お立ち寄りください。

妻籠宿から清内路にかけてはなかなかカフェも少ないので貴重な場所です! りんごのチーズケーキが美味しかったでス! 2人で3つ注文したら半分こにしてくれました!

無料バスでホテル木曽路に到着、館内に飲食店は無く歩いて15分程のこちらの店でランチを食べました。山の中ですが明るい白木のアットホームなお店です。日替わりランチが2種類850円で美味しくてお値打ちでした
