Cafe • 21-1 Shimobuchi, Oyodo, Yoshino District, Nara 638-0821, Japan
This shop, located in a quiet residential area of Oyodo-cho, exudes a strong retro atmosphere at first glance. Stepping inside, one is immediately drawn to American-style interiors such as pinball machines and jukeboxes. However, this retro space effectively incorporates modern accents, maintaining a perfect balance of nostalgia and freshness.
The main highlight of the menu is undoubtedly the hamburgers. The hearty American-style dish, both in appearance and taste, does not disappoint. The juicy patty, fresh vegetables, and melting cheese create a flavor that sets it apart from fast food chain burgers.
As the name suggests, the Riders Cafe is a popular spot for bikers. In the warm seasons, bikes gather one after another in the parking lot, and bikers can be seen enjoying a rest in the retro space. Conversations between guests and the owner also flourish at the counter seats, creating a cozy atmosphere.
For those arriving by car, the spacious parking lot in front of the shop is available. Motorcycle riders are also warmly welcomed. It is about a 10-minute walk from the nearby Oyodo station, and public transportation is also available.
