Hello travelers! 😄
This is Yuzu, writer for Sarukuma 🌻

Today we’re heading to a charming little spot in central Kumamoto City —
Kish Cafe, located in Uoyamachi ☆

You’ll find it right in front of the Gofuku tram stop, next to the West Fire Station 😀

An adorable signboard greets you at the entrance 💕

The parking area covers this entire lot 🚗

With this much parking available,
you won’t have to stress about finding a spot — perfect for visitors driving in 👌

How stylish is this?!

Just look out for this landmark and you won’t get lost 👍

Outside, there’s a lovely terrace seating area 😄
Dining outdoors in this season feels extra special 😍

Now, let’s head inside!!!

There’s also cozy indoor seating 😊
The interior has the same cute and welcoming vibe 💕

They serve biscotti too —
dip them in your coffee for the perfect bite 👌

Summer special — Japanese shaved ice (kakigori) for just 360 yen 😆
What a steal! 🍧

Now, on to the menu 😄

Coffee here is brewed inside
a 1965 vintage
Airstream Caravel
— yes, the iconic American trailer — using specialty coffee beans ☆

Hot chocolate is also a great choice as the weather cools down 💕
Let it warm both body and soul ❤️

Credit cards and electronic payments are accepted —
super convenient for international travelers!

Recommended Menu Items

Here’s what we tried during our visit:

First up, Biscotti — 100 yen

Crisp, crunchy, and so addictive —
it was gone in seconds 😅

I meant to enjoy it with coffee, but I couldn’t resist pairing it with a non-alcoholic beer instead 😆

Sipping a non-alcoholic beer in this perfect weather
was absolute bliss 🍺

Having non-alcoholic options is such a thoughtful touch 💕

Next up:

Hot Sandwich with Melty Double Cheese — 550 yen

And here’s the kicker —
add a drink as a set and you get 100 yen off the drink 👍
Even non-alcoholic beer qualifies for the discount 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Can you feel the crispiness of the bread and that double cheese?

That cheese pull is everything 😍

Absolutely irresistible 🤩
Here’s a confession from me, though…
I’m not normally a fan of cheese…

BUT BUT BUT!!!!
I actually loved it!!!

No exaggeration — this is genuinely true!
Even cheese-skeptics can enjoy this hot sandwich 😋

The staff were lovely and welcoming too ❤️ A truly relaxing visit 💕
