Hida Print Coffee Shop Baren

4.0

This Japanese-style cafe uses a 180 year-old machiya (traditional townhouse) and is located in Hida Takayama, an area with an old townscape that is an important traditional architecture preservation district. The interior has high ceilings, and is decorated with the prints of local artists. You can drink coffee while gazing at the townscape through the latticework from the second floor seating for a touch of elegance. Their popular offerings include homemade zenzai (sweet red bean soup) using large Tokachi-grown red beans that are carefully boiled, cream anmitsu (small cubes of “Kanten” agar jelly and sweet rice dumplings topped with ice cream), and their snack set with sweet red bean toast and a drink. They also sell postcards with woodblock prints.

Extortion at Baren Café

Reviewed : 2018.08.07

We were a party of 4 people but only 3 of us wanted something to drink. The bar was emty but We were forced to pay 200 yen for the person that didn’t want to have anything. Is this legal?
Great art and nice owners

ぬくもりを感じる木版画の町家カフェ

Reviewed : 2019.11.15

高山の古い町並みをしばらく散策していた私たちは、こちらのカフェに休憩に立ち寄りました。実は、この版画喫茶ばれんは、私たちにとって２度目の訪問でした。店内は当時と変わらずに素敵な空間が広がっていて、ぬくもりを感じる木版画がとてもいいですね。いただいたパフェも、とてもおいしくて、居心地もよくてゆっくりできました。
