Cafe De Dango.
A cafe with original and creative dango that perfectly complements coffee.
Located on the approach to Takahatafudoson, one of the three great Fudo temples in the Kanto region, this cafe offers over 50 varieties of dango. The owner, who has traveled throughout Japan tasting dango, serves not only classic flavors like mitarashi and red bean but also unique variations like rum raisin and tiramisu, which he calls "Evolution Dango." The specialty coffee is made with carefully selected beans and extracted one drop at a time using the time-consuming cold-brew method. The owner, a former backpacker, offers coffee in various styles inspired by the different ways he discovered while traveling around the world.
