Breakfast along Kamo River －”Kawama Cafe” Popular for One-Handed Rice Burger

How about enjoying a relaxing breakfast while viewing the Kamo River on the morning of the Kyoto trip? We are going to introduce the “Kawama Cafe”, which you can find if you walk south along the Kamo River on the Kawaramachi side of Kyoto. It’s located between the Takase River and Kamo River, known as a famous spot for cherry blossoms. This cafe opens at 8:00AM and is a popular shop where you can have unique rice burgers and sandwiches.

As its shop’s name suggests, “Kawama Cafe” opened in 2020 between the Kamo River and Takase River. The seats facing the Kamo River have no doors or windows, so it has become a hot spot where you can enjoy a meal while listening to the birds singing. In addition, the unique interiors are also the reason for its popularity as “Higashiyama” is depicted on the wall of the shop which can be seen from the 2nd floor, and the works of art only charcoal and moss in the world are displayed. We recommend taking pictures with the drink cup with a stylish design, and you can take photogenic photos.

The popular menu of this shop is rice burgers. There are the Kyoto-style “Kyou-fu Kitsune”, Inari-age stuffed with minced chicken and shibazuke becomes accents, and the sweet Japanese rolled omelet “Tamagoyaki & Negimiso”. There are also limited burgers that used ingredients according to the season. The point is that you can eat all food with one hand. It might be a good idea to take it out and enjoy it along the Kamo River during the warm season. It opens at 8:00AM in the morning, so why don’t you get off to a good start to the day while enjoying the flow of the Kamo River with a rice burger in one hand?
