Machiya café [teahouse Kinkakuan] that conveys the charm of Gyokuro.

The tea house is an 80-year-old machiya (traditional Kyoto townhouse). The owner is Keigo Masuda, whose grandfather is Juichi Yamashita, known as the leading expert on hand-rubbed gyokuro. He has been familiar with fine teas since he was a child, and when he took over the family business in his 20s, he invented Japanese afternoon tea to convey the deliciousness of Kyotanabe-produced gyokuro, powdered green tea, and Japanese black tea.

Kinkakuan Afternoon Tea Iro is 2,800 yen. Includes homemade sweets that go well with Japanese black tea, egg sandwiches, yuba pizza, and other light meals. （Reservations required at least 2 days in advance. 90 min.

Enjoy a happy mood with sweets such as black bean muffins, Japanese tea scones, green tea shiruko, and other sweets made by our resident patissier. Two types of afternoon tea are available: Iroha, which includes only sweets, and Kyozen, which includes lunch.
