I went with my gut feeling and decided to have pizza toast today at 14:10. Unfortunately, the pizza toast was sold out, so I ended up trying a ham sandwich instead. It turned out to be delicious, with high-quality ham inside. The ham was tasty, and I enjoyed the two different flavors. I paired it with a Turkish-style coffee, adding plenty of sugar and milk to make it delicious.

I have a feeling that today is a pizza toast day. But they are sold out of both the mix and pizza toast. So, I ended up getting an egg sandwich instead. In the end, no matter what you eat, the egg sandwich is delicious with two different flavors to enjoy. Both sauces are delicious and carefully made. I also had a melon cream soda as a side dish.

After a long time, I had a great lunch at Yamamoto-san. The delicious boiled egg sandwich and iced café au lait were perfect. The mini salad was finely chopped like coleslaw and the dressing was refreshing and tasty. The boiled egg sandwich was addictive. I had a luxurious time in the middle of the day. Highly recommended!

For those who haven't tried this rich coffee jelly yet, I recommend giving it a try. It's not just black, it's the real deal coffee jelly. When you're feeling peckish, coffee and coffee jelly are recommended. Some menu items were already sold out by 5 pm.

I tried a milkshake for the first time after being warned that it's very sweet. It was indeed sweet. I also had a fruit parfait as a side, which had a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity. The star of the day was the Shine Muscat, which was easy to eat and beautifully cut in half. Mr. Yamamoto was sweet as always.

Thank you for always serving delicious coffee and meals. It has been 2 and a half years since my first visit, and the coffee is always delicious, the food is always tasty, and the service is always polite and cheerful. It's a great place that consistently provides a blissful coffee time. It's a great shop!

The fruit sandwich was sold out, so I tried the fruit parfait instead. It was a luxurious mix of richly sweet melon and banana, perfectly tangy kiwi and pineapple, all blended with ice cream and whipped cream to create the ultimate parfait. The chef refused to use extra fillers like cornflakes or sponge, resulting in a stubbornly delicious creation.

This is a warm family-run café. The interior, coffee, and food are all thoughtfully and elegantly done. From the previous generation to the current one, and onto the next, they strive to provide the best without compromise. It seems to be in their DNA. This café stands out with its unique charm. It might just become your favorite spot. Be sure to pay a visit.

At 2:30 on Sunday. I stopped by after having Indian curry. It's quite close to JR Saga Arashiyama Station, but on the north side, so there are hardly any people around. I had a fruit sandwich and a blended coffee in the calm interior. The fruit sandwich had cream and fruits on top, resembling a cake. The blended coffee was best with sugar and milk added. It was delicious, but I ate a bit too much. The fruit sandwich had two layers divided into six pieces, perfect for sharing with about three people. They also have branches in Shimogamo and Gion.

I received a fruit sandwich and it was the most extravagant one I've ever had. The large fresh fruits, moist bread, and elegant cream (seems a bit sweeter recently?) remained delicious even after it fell apart. I enjoyed it without worrying about how to eat it.

On a clear morning after a night of festivities, I visited Yamamoto seeking relief from the scorching 38-degree outdoor heat. Opting for a non-caffeine option, I chose a melon cream soda, a rare treat for me. The carbonation was especially refreshing on such a hot day. The green part had a subtle sweetness, which blended nicely when mixed. It was an adult-like melon cream soda. Today, both the fruit sandwich and the French dish were on the sweeter side.

- About the shop
The main store of "Coffee Shop Yamamoto" that I visited last time. It is a specialty coffee shop that has been in business for over 50 years since 1969.
- Shop atmosphere
Located a 1-minute walk from the city bus stop Sagano Setogawa-cho, and a 4-minute walk from JR Saga Arashiyama Station. The shop is situated in the southeast block of Marutamachi-dori Kiyotaki-michi. I arrived at the shop entrance on a Sunday at 2:39 pm. Despite the rainy weather, there were quite a few customers, with more than half of the seats occupied. Most of the customers were groups of 2-3 people or 4 people, mostly middle-aged and elderly. The interior design is unified in brown, with chandeliers on the ceiling and paintings on the walls. Although the wall colors vary, the atmosphere inside is not much different from the Shimogamo branch.
- Fruit Sandwich (1200 yen)
I was captivated by the rich colors and volume, so I decided to order it. The sandwich is cut into 2 layers x 6 blocks, with fresh cream and fruits sandwiched between the bread. The fruits inside are melon, orange, kiwi, pineapple, and yellow peach. The fruits are slightly firm and juicy, while the cream is sweet and fluffy. The texture is also very pleasant. All the fruits go well together, but personally, I like the combination with yellow peach. It is very delicious, but it may be a bit filling, so it could be a meal replacement for those with a small appetite.
- Iced Tea Milk (550 yen)
You can choose between lemon or milk. This time, I chose milk. The tea aroma is there, but it is not overpowering and very easy to drink. The aftertaste is refreshing and has a pleasant flavor. It has been a long time since I posted about the Shimogamo branch, but I am happy to finally visit the main store. If I have the opportunity to visit again, I would definitely like to try their coffee.

The sugary iced coffee hits the spot, rich and delicious. Mixing it with a straw creates a satisfying crunch from the crushed ice. Yamamoto on Sunday was packed with people of all ages and genders. At 4:15 PM, the mixed sandwich was sold out.

It's the best. After sweating in the heat, there's nothing better than enjoying a strong iced coffee and a slightly sweet fruit sandwich in the cool interior. The delicious bitterness of the iced coffee and the sweetness of the fruit sandwich are just right. If you visit Arashiyama, be sure to stop by Yamamoto's.

Wednesday 7:02 Coffee Shop Yamamoto
On a weekday, I planned to visit Arashiyama in the morning and decided to stop by here right after opening. No other customers were there. I ordered a fruit sandwich for 1,200 yen, a special blend coffee for 580 yen, and a C set for 950 yen (hot tea included).
7:17 The C set arrived. I shared it with my daughter. It included salad, scrambled eggs, and three sandwiches. It was easy to eat and just the right amount for a morning meal.
7:29 The fruit sandwich arrived. Although you can order it in the morning, they mentioned they prioritize making other breakfast items first, so it took about 30 minutes. It had a generous portion and a striking appearance. My daughter, who was in a bad mood early in the morning (left at 6:20), suddenly brightened up at the sight of it. The sandwich was cut into 6 pieces, with whipped cream divided into 4 sections on top, making it a fun challenge to figure out how to eat it. It was a delightful and delicious treat that brought out the childlike excitement in us. Even after returning home, my daughter kept asking me to go back for the fruit sandwich. We enjoyed a peaceful time in the calm atmosphere of this long-established shop. I will definitely visit again. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

Director Shinichi Fujisaki of BODYPITKYOTO here. I have finished my treatments in Nantan City and have returned to Arashiyama in Saga. I visited Yamamoto-san after a long time. On hot days, nothing beats a parfait. I had the coffee jelly parfait. It was delicious as always. Thank you very much.

I visited the famous shop Yamamoto after a long time. I decided to try the unsweetened coffee on a whim. Unsweetened coffee has a good coffee flavor, but sweetened coffee is better for coffee floats. When summer comes, I crave coffee floats. Today, the vegetable sandwich was sold out.

Fruit sandwiches are delicious, especially because the bread used is very tasty. It takes a little time to make, but it's worth the wait. The portions are quite big, so it might be a good idea to share with someone. It seems like the shop may close early on some days, so it's best to contact them before going.

Second visit. Last time I had the morning set...this time I came to try the famous fruit sandwich. The coffee is dark roasted, just the way I like it, and the morning set was good so I knew this was a reliable place. The fruit sandwich is a bit pricey, but the portion is huge. It's like a cake. It might be just right to share between two people. It could make for a good souvenir story. Anyway, both times I've been here, the Beatles have been playing loudly from the speakers. Depending on where you sit, it might be difficult to have a conversation and you might find yourself humming along to the Beatles during your stay. But I really like this place.

I came to have breakfast around 8 o'clock. This area doesn't seem to have many tourists passing by, so I got the impression that it's a cafe visited by locals. The breakfast was delicious. I ordered the C set, but it was so good that I think the D set would have been great too. The sandwich, which only seemed to have ham and cucumber at first glance, was incredibly delicious with mustard sauce-like dressing...! The salad dressing and scrambled eggs were also tasty! My husband was delighted, saying it was the first time he had such a delicious breakfast. If there is such a wonderful cafe in the local area, I would like to visit it regularly. The coffee was dark roasted.
