食事も接客も良くて雰囲気も良いです。テーブル5台とカウンター席が5席、テーブルは2人掛け、4人掛けが各2テーブル、大きなテーブルが一つあって6人は座れそうでした。今回はキャベツのパニーニと平日限定のフレンチトーストとチェリーのタルト、水出しアイスコーヒーをいただきましたアイスコーヒーはコーヒー初心者の私の好みで飲みやすかったですパニーニとタルト、甘いのとしょっぱいのの無限ループにハマりそうで、ケーキのおかわりを考えてしまいました次はチーズケーキをお願いしてみたいです。 また伺います ごちそうさまでした

The cafe is located a short walk from Kuroiso Station and has a bakery attached to it. You can buy bread first and then go to the café next door, where you can enjoy bread in the café. The interior of the store, which looks like a mountain hut, is stylish and relaxing. There is a wide selection of bread, and I ordered a lemon doughnut. The outside was crispy and the inside was doughy and filling, making for a delicious doughnut. It goes well with black coffee. The breads make me want to try other breads as well, and the comfort and service of the staff are very good.

栃木県黒磯駅前にあるカフェです。パン屋さんに併設されていて、クロックムッシュが激うまです。その他にもフレンチトーストもとても美味しかったです。 チーズと玉子がとっても合っていました。これからの秋・冬の時季にもとても良いですね。 なお、カフェなのでコーヒーもとても美味しかったです。 黒磯方面まで観光で来た方は、一息つきたい時にはお勧めです! なお、行列にはなっていませんでしたが、人気店のような感じでしたよ!時間にゆとりを持って行ってみてくださいね!

The staff's smiles are the best. The light meal of gratine is excellent! The cakes, which change with the seasons, are also good.

There is a bunch of nice places to grab a cup of good coffee and some light food just in front of the Kuroiso station, this is one of them. Sandwiches are delicious and big with lots of salad, which makes for a perfect lunch on your way to/from Mt. Nasu.
