My recent excursion to Utsunomiya, Tochigi, took an unexpected turn when my friend and I found ourselves craving a soothing cup of matcha. Consulting Google Maps led us to a delightful discovery: Kyoya Chaho Utsunomiya Alps no Mori, just a short 15-minute drive away from where we were. Little did we know, this hidden gem would offer not only matcha delights but also a tranquil retreat surrounded by nature's beauty.
As we made our way towards the café, the landscape transformed into picturesque countryside vistas, leaving us momentarily unsure if we were on the right path. However, our uncertainties vanished upon arrival, as we were greeted by the sight of a serene campsite nestled amidst lush greenery. Despite the narrow final stretch of road leading to the café, the journey was well worth it for the peaceful ambiance that awaited us.
Stepping into the café, we were welcomed by an empty space, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the tranquil atmosphere. The café's charm was undeniable, with its minimalist decor and warm ambiance inviting us to relax and unwind. The friendly staff added to the welcoming atmosphere, offering us a selection of matcha treats and sweets to enjoy.
Opting for a refreshing iced matcha and a comforting hot matcha, my friend and I savored each sip as we basked in the serenity of our surroundings. The addition of delectable sweets further enhanced our experience, providing the perfect accompaniment to our matcha indulgence.
Impressed by the kindness of the staff and the pristine cleanliness of the café's facilities, I couldn't help but envision a return visit, perhaps to partake in the camping experience offered by the site. The peaceful vibe and impeccable service left a lasting impression, making Kyoya Chaho Utsunomiya Alps no Mori a destination I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking a serene escape amidst nature's embrace.
