対馬出身の旦那さんと福岡出身のお嫁さんが経営する洗練されたお店 デザイナーなのかな と感じるぐらい今風のおしゃれ空間 細かいところにもこだわりが詰まっているきれいなカフェです。 行った時は嫁さんだけでしたが、心地の良い接客で出迎えてくれました。 ホットカフェラテを注文して美味しかったです。 それとは別にシオカフェラテ?というのを試飲させてもらい、そっちの方が美味しかった。 今度はそっちを頼んでみたいと思います(^^) またここから車で25分ほどの場所にある「やまぼうし(Yamaboushi)」というカフェとバーを併設したゲストハウスも、雰囲気良くておすすめです(^^)気軽にコーヒーやビールが飲めます!

I visited the Café twice during my stay in Tsushima and had a lovely time! Not only are both of the Owners super nice and talkative, they also make the best coffee I have had in Japan! I couldn’t resist buying their T-Shirt too, which I will wear during my year abroad studying in Japan! I highly recommend it when you come to Tsushima :)

対馬島内でもっともおしゃれな雰囲気を持つカフェです。 このカフェのとなりにあるお宿の経営者の息子さんたちがはじめられたそうです。単に店の作りが美しいだけではなく、コーヒーそのものの味わいがとても美味しく、他店よりもコーヒーを味わえる店舗だと言えます。 川端通り沿いに位置するため場所もとても分かりやすく近くに宿がたくさんあるエリアなので、宿泊先から徒歩圏内で訪問することができます。 決済はクレジットカードなど一通り使えます。
