A Cafe Run Directly by a Bee Farm, Marked by a Triangular Red Roof
This cafe is run by Shinkai Bee Farm in Engaru Town, Monbetsu District, Hokkaido. Using a 100% natural beekeeping style, the cafe's motto is "to directly deliver high-quality natural honey to as many people as possible." The owner's love of oyaki led to the creation of the popular "Honey Pot Oyaki." Other drinks on the menu include "Soft Serve Ice Cream" with unlimited toppings of five types of honey, "Honey Honey Ice Cream," and "Honey Lemon Drink (carbonated, hot, iced)." Takeout is also available, making them a great souvenir. The natural honey used can be purchased at the direct sales store behind the store.
Moist Oyaki Dough Kneaded with Honey
The popular "Honey Pot Oyaki" comes in various flavors, including coarse bean paste, custard, chocolate, bean butter, smooth bean paste, and seasonal bean paste. The dough is made from a unique blend of rice flour and wheat flour, and is kneaded with natural honey harvested in-house, allowing you to enjoy a moist and chewy texture even after a long time.
An Eye-Catching Exterior That Feels Straight Out of a Fairytale
This cafe stands out in a quiet residential area with its honey-colored exterior and striking red-tiled triangular roof. The cafe is covered in regular hexagonal tiles that mimic a honeycomb structure, and the wood-grain interior, including the wall shelves, also features regular hexagons, making it feel like you're in the world of bees.
