🍜 Dan Nian Pavilion旦念亭

Located just a 2-minute walk from JR Karuizawa Station, this long-established shop opened in 1978 (Showa 53). The coffee brewed with care by the owner and the homemade chocolate cake are highly praised. The "Cold Brew Coffee" is made using spring water from the famous sightseeing spot "Shiraito Falls," brewed slowly with special equipment for 8 to 10 hours. The moment you take a sip, you can taste the natural aroma of the coffee beans and the pure, rich flavor, making it a delightful experience that you want to savor again and again. Additionally, the shop's homemade "Chocolate Cake" pairs perfectly with the coffee. This no-bake chocolate cake has a rich texture that melts in your mouth, making it addictive. At the back of the shop, there is a terrace surrounded by azaleas, which has been a filming location for movies and TV dramas. Here, you can enjoy coffee and cake while immersing yourself in the natural atmosphere of Karuizawa.
