Service: Shy but very friendly and smiling
Facilities & Equipment: Very clean overall. Excellent washroom. Entirely non-smoking
Prices: Reasonable
Strong points: Lunch cafe! very healthy lunches with local ingredients. Open as a cosy cafe all
day!

fortunately for the true cafes and healthy food lovers there seems to be a resurgence of establishments which offer you something different from the industrialized diners and cafes invading our streets in Shizuoka City and Prefecture!

One such place is Cyohachi Coffee/長八珈琲店 tucked away in Sumpu Cho away from the bustling center of Shizuoka City!
It does have a lot of merits apart of their delicious coffee and healthy food!

Most of their ingredients are local!

You can take a seat at the counter or at a table on the first floor, but if you wish for some peace climb the stairs to the second floor!

The decoration has been thankfully kept to a minimum with a simple and homey atmosphere!

Not only a great place to enjoy coffee or tea, but the lunch menu is definitely worth a good look!

And the place is entirely nonsmoking!

I had the hand–made hamburger lunch set for my first visit!

Soup!

More than enough for lunch!

Fresh greens salad!

Home-made hamburger!

I mean a delicious stewed open hamburger!

Steamed rice with a nice touch!

Stewed vegetables and tofu, potato salad and home-made pickles!

Tea or coffee included served with real sugar and milk!

See you there again for another lunch!
