Salunpowaku - Minoo

Adorable vegan cafe round the corner from the station. Relaxing and beautiful little space. Delicious food and helpful, friendly service.

Stopped in here for lunch on my way to Minoo Park. I had the Tofu burger as I was craving bread which is very hard to find for vegans in Japan. The burger was amazing and comes with a side of minestrone soup. All up I spent 1300 yen for the meal and an iced latte. Nice quiet atmosphere and the hosts were lovely too. Also, hot tip! The tempura maple leaves that the area is famous for can be vegan! I'm not sure if all are but if you walk to Minoo Park and see the stalls, some of them label their packaging with the ingredients. Highly recommend trying these!

Best vegan meal I've had in Japan so far. I got the curry, tiramisu and soy latte. Every dish was beautifully prepared down to the dishware and beautiful wooden spoons. It was healthy, and the staff were really gracious. The tiramisu was one of the best vegan desserts I've ever had. The area and location are really delightful on a sunny day. Minoo has a peaceful countryside feel and this restauraunt helps that vibe sink in. I found it to be very affordable too!

After walking to the waterfall I stopped for a coffee and a treat here. The staff were very friendly and the gelato was amazing! Would definitely recommend

The restaurant is located in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. It feels like you are entering Ghibli world. I ordered tofu burger: the fresh and bouncy buns matched perfectly with the tofu and mayonnaise~ Oh I also got the strawberry gelato, it was 10x better than the current seasonal starbucks “very strawberry” frappe. ;p You shouldy definitely stop by here before/after you visit minoo waterfall
