Very delicious cake & lemonade

I came here for the vegan cake and a needed break from all the running around and many many people of Nishiki Market. And must say the atmosphere and the food/drink really helped me recharge! Would definitely recommend!

Pros: Calm atmosphere , Yummy cake, Stylish plates

Very good pasta

If you order the pasta of the day you can choose between 3 kinds of pasta and 5 kinds of bread that go with it.
An small salad as appetizer is included in every dish except for the diy sandwich.
They make the food freshly so it takes some time.
The veggies are very fresh and crunchy, the pasta are perfectly cooked and the sauce is very rich and fruity.
The price of 1300¥ for pasta, salad and a small bread is really cheap chonsidering the quality you get and compared to other vegan restaurants in Kyoto.

The restaurant has an relaxed atmosphere, the staff is very friendly and they have an sufficiently big menu without being too overwhelming.

The desserts and drinks sounded really good aswell.

Pros: Delicious , Friendly staff

10/10 would go back (and often)

Lovely food and service. The creamy spinach and mushroom pasta was delectable. Really everything was great. Looking forward to going back next time I'm in Kyoto #Veganuary

Life saving hot chocolate

Walk up and down Fushimi Inari and reward yourself with a vegan hot choccie (served winter only) at Cafe Gallery San. Pairing it with a carrot cake and ice cream will rot your teeth with sweetness but restore your faith in humanity. You earnt it with all those stairs! #Veganuary

Pros: Hot chocolate, Carrot cake , Rum and raisin ice cream

Lovely restaurant

This was such a cute place. The food was excellent. Their avocado toast alone could keep me coming back (it's not "just" avocado on toast, but avocado on toasted sourdough with a delicious aioli base and topped with red onions 😍). The ginger tea with oat milk is another favorite of mine. And the owners are really sweet.

Pros: Delicious food , Quiet and cozy place, Friendly staff

Cons: None

Lovely calm atmosphere

I had a carrot cake and a ginger tea.
Both were delicious.
The newly renovated old Japanese building is very charming. I loved the calm music they played.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating.
Good place to work.

Nice little cafe for a delicious lunch

This cafe was my go to lunch spot during my stay in Kyoto, as it was close to my school, the staff was really nice and the food was delicious. My absolute favourite was the Avo sandwich, but the cold pasta with pesto was also amazing and a perfect choice for the hot japanese summer.

Delicious, fresh, creative

Amazing! The aesthetic of the restaurant alone is one thing, but the food was incredible as well. Highly recommend the avocado open sandwich. The food was filling, each dish unique and high quality. We left feeling full but not heavy or oily which is incredible.
