Oheso Café and Bakery (おへそカフェアンドベーカリー)

Oheso Café and Bakery is a cafe in Sera Town. The café is directly operated by the famous bakery Oheso Bakery, and offers many café dishes using their bread, “Oheso Pan.” The restaurant is very particular about the ingredients used in its café and breads, and some of the menu items are made without using any animal ingredients, so vegans can enjoy their lunch without worry.

Vegan menu is available.

Moment of Joy

The appeal of the Oheso Café and Bakery is its menu, which uses organic ingredients as much as possible. Most of the ingredients are sourced locally and domestically, including homegrown ingredients such as wheat and soybeans. Even the coffee beans that we have no choice but to purchase from overseas are carefully selected to be pesticide-free and fair trade so that everyone can enjoy the café with peace of mind.
