A quiet alley just outside the Onomichi cityscape. Passing by the imposing wooden building, one cannot help but be drawn to its calm and imposing presence. That's 'Tearoom リオ'. A long-established coffee shop that has been in business for over 30 years and is one of the best in the area.
As soon as you step into the building, you are surrounded by a sense of non-routine, as if you have wandered into another world. The interior of the shop is a calm space filled with the warmth of wood, and through the large windows, the greenery of the trees peeks in. Surrounded by the greenery, time seems to flow slowly.
The menu offers simple yet high-quality items such as coffee, pasta, and cakes. Each dish, carefully crafted and using local ingredients, reflects the dedication of the artisans. Especially popular is the 'Lemon Squash' with its exquisite balance of acidity and sweetness.
What's appealing about Tearoom リオ is that it opens at 7 am. You can enjoy a luxurious time to relax in the morning. It's also recommended to start your day with a morning set. Before strolling through Onomichi, why not immerse yourself in the calm atmosphere here?
