這家店是一位從石垣島的奶奶經營的,相當好客健談。也從她口中得知,該建築是以前的美軍宿舍。風景良好,前方庭園還可以看到海。咖啡喜愛的口味也可以先跟奶奶說,比如說你喜歡酸的咖啡,苦的,奶奶都會幫你做。咖啡真的很好喝,配上沒景真的是很享受。而且庭院前方有條小路,可以通到旁邊的沙灘,很適合帶小朋友來放電。只是入口處比較難找,需要多加注意。

这家店是一个奶奶经营的,用自家建筑一半作为咖啡店一半作为自己休息用,整个空间舒服又亲切,进门的地方有个大大的草坪,一些当地的朋友会来这里参加活动,是一个非常惬意的小店。

Such a quiet little home-away-from-home place to hang out. Quite close to Camp Kinser military base, but with the new construction, more difficult to get to. Also, with said new construction, the view isn't NEARLY as beautiful as it use to be. As soon as the new overpass is finished, you'll have the noise to contend with as well :( The military base closed the closest gate for the construction, so there may be less visitors due to lack of ease. Lastly, they're working on the new shopping center off the property Kinser has given back, so I hope this place stays in business in the near future. The service is great and the food absolutely delicious. We were able to bring our dog and tie him up near by to keep an eye on him, and they brought us extra water to give to him and love to boot (he loved all the attention). We're sad that the exquisite view is gone, but we'll be back again regardless.

素敵過ぎるお店。今回、義母の帰省に付き合って沖縄に来て、どこも観光しなかったけどこのカフェの素敵な海の見える芝の庭で佇んでいただけで、とても幸せな気分になれました。あまり人には教えたくないけど、長く続けて欲しい隠れ家的なカフェです。

キンザーの基地の隣でやっているカフェときき訪問。入り口がかなりわかりづらいのでグーグルマップ必須です。基本は観光客はいないので、地元のおじー、おばー、移住組の憩いのカフェだとおもうので古き沖縄を体験したい人にはオススメです。 BEGINのボーカルの比嘉さんのお家だったことも地元では有名な場所です 平均予算 800円 評価基準 関東 沖縄と関東のデュアル生活をしている自分が関東にいる間に食べたいか、行ってみたいかを基準に星を選んでいます。味、コスパ、接客、雰囲気の総評になります ※ 1ケ月の約半分が沖縄です 評価者 男性 年齢 30代後半 星5 必ず1回は行きたい 星4 いけるなら1回はいきたい 星3 奢りならいくかも 星2 いかない 星1 いきたくない
