Cafe restaurants in Nara

  1. A

    Mellow Café

    Located down a narrow alley (look for the palm tree) not far from Kintetsu Nara Station, this open-plan cafe is a pleasant spot to fuel up for a day of sightseeing. The menu centres on pasta and pizza (there's a brick oven). There's an English sign and menu.

    Ten Ten Café

    Operated by a singer-songwriter, and a venue for lots of live music, this airy cafe is a fine spot for a drink or light meal in the Naramachi area. It serves a daily lunch special for ¥750. Look for the English sign and plants out front.

    Nonohana Ohka

    With indoor and outdoor garden seating, this cafe is one of our favourite places for a pick-me-up when in Naramachi. The cakes are usually very good here and they go down a treat with the excellent tea. Look for the glass front and the sign reading 'cafe'.

    Tachibana

    This friendly little cafe/gallery in Naramachi is a great place to sample a cup of green tea. Once you're done enjoying your tea, head upstairs to check out the wonderful collection of ceramics from Kyoto and Nara artists. There's no English sign at present, but the English/Japanese menu is displayed outside.

    Doutor

    If you just need a quick cuppa or an eat-in or takeaway sandwich, there is a branch of the coffee shop chain in the Konishi Arcade (a five-minute walk from Kintetsu Nara).
