Basecamp Coffee, surrounded by the great nature of Nakagawa Village, offers an open space where the green of trees and the sunlight shine through the glass-walled interior. It has a calm adult atmosphere, yet it is comfortable for families with children.
The main menu item, soup curry, is a healthy dish that allows you to fully enjoy seasonal vegetables. You can also choose the level of spiciness from 5 levels, enjoying from mild to spicy according to your preference. The tender meat flavor and spicy soup are superbly matched.
You can feel the dedication and affection of the couple from the furniture and small items in the store, as well as the handmade linen products displayed on the walls. Moreover, whether it's sweets or coffee, each item is carefully crafted.
It's about a 10-minute drive from Mount Jinba-gatake, a popular climbing spot in Nakagawa Village. It's a perfect location for a stop before aiming for the mountaintop or for a break on the way back to heal after climbing.
