Strawberry picking experience & luxurious strawberry sweets! A cafe next to a farm that's open all year round

Hello. I'm Momo and I love strawberries.

This time, we will introduce you to a cafe in Miyako-cho, Kyoto-gun, where you can also pick strawberries.

You can also pick strawberries by weight! Inoue Ichigo/Strawberry Kitchen (Miyako-cho, Kyoto-gun) is a cafe where you can enjoy seasonal strawberry sweets.

Inoue Strawberry / Strawberry Kitchen is located in a tranquil area surrounded by fields, about 10 minutes by car from the Yukuhashi Interchange on the Higashi Kyushu Expressway.

You can pick strawberries at the Inoue Strawberry Farm and enjoy sweets made with the strawberries carefully grown by the farm owner, Mr. Inoue, at the attached cafe, Strawberry Kitchen.

There is a parking lot for 15 cars next to the store, but it gets very busy, especially during strawberry picking season. I went around 2pm on a Sunday, and the parking lot was already full! I recommend giving yourself plenty of time to get there.

Look for the red flag and the white building behind it is the cafe space.

The cafe has a bright and calm atmosphere, with four seats at the counter,

There is one table for two people,

There are four tables that seat four people, so it's easy to come alone or with a group.

There were some nice pictures on the walls.

In fact, Inoue Strawberry is the 2022 winner and 2023 runner-up of the Strawberry Picking Facility Repeat Rate Grand Prix in the Kyushu and Okinawa area, which is held annually by Jalan. It is a popular strawberry picking spot loved by many people.

The strawberry houses are lined up diagonally in front of the cafe.

Inoue Strawberry offers a strawberry picking event only from January to May, where strawberries are sold by weight, rather than an all-you-can-eat strawberry picking event. They insist on selling strawberries by weight because they want customers to "savor every single delicious, high-quality strawberry" and "take their time." Reservations are required, and can be made by phone or on their website.

There are eight varieties in total: "Star Night," "White Strawberry," "Yotsuboshi," "Amaou," "Kaorino," "Benihoppe," "Yayoihime," and "Tochiotome." The harvest time varies depending on the variety and the climate, so it depends on the timing how many varieties you can enjoy.

Business days and hours (basically 10:00-15:30 *lunch break 12:00-13:00) may change depending on the weather, so be sure to check Instagram!

A very popular parfait made with carefully selected, perfectly ripe strawberries from our strawberry farm!

At this time of year, Strawberry Kitchen offers sweets made with fresh strawberries harvested from the farm.

The shop boasts over 10 types of strawberry sweets, including the classic "Soft Serve Ice Cream" (from 450 yen) which is also available for takeout, and the eat-in only "Parfait" (from 1,150 yen)!

I'd like to introduce the two extremely popular parfaits we had this time ♪ Both are only available for eat-in.

Strawberry Mix Parfait

The gorgeous "Strawberry Mix Parfait" (1,800 yen) is topped with lots of strawberries.

Image: momo

The strawberries are "mixed" with different varieties harvested that day, and on the day I visited there were three varieties: "Star Night", "Beni Hoppe", and "Amaou". It's great to be able to compare the different varieties♪

All the strawberries are bright red and big, and they're sweet and delicious ♡ Happiness fills your mouth.

Under the strawberries is fresh cream and strawberry ice cream. The strawberry ice cream has a nice sour taste and a refreshing flavor.

Beneath it was vanilla ice cream and strawberry sauce, making it a luxurious treat that could be enjoyed from top to bottom.

Strawberry Parfait

The extremely popular "Strawberry Parfait" (1,150 yen).

Colorful toppings such as fresh strawberries, waffle chips, and cocoa cookies are sure to whet your appetite.

The vanilla ice cream is topped with strawberry sauce, and the sweetness of the vanilla ice cream and the sourness of the strawberries are a perfect match!

Under the whipped cream is "Strawberry Milk Panna Cotta". Its refreshing sweetness is addictively delicious. By the way, there is also a limited quantity of "Strawberry Milk Panna Cotta" (300 yen) available separately.

The one at the bottom is "Strawberry Jelly with lots of strawberry pulp." As the name suggests, it's filled with lots of strawberry pulp and is sweet and delicious! I was able to enjoy plenty of strawberries and was very satisfied.

There's more! Strawberry sweets available for takeout

Besides Parfait, there are many other recommended strawberry sweets available.

I visited again on another day, so I'd like to introduce it to you!

Soft cream

The shop's recommended item is the "Soft Serve Ice Cream" (650 yen), which is vanilla soft serve ice cream topped with strawberry sauce. Take-out is also available.

Image: momo

You can choose your favorite variety from "Today's Strawberry" and add it as a topping (free of charge).

On the day I visited, they only had "Star Night". It's a very sweet and flavorful strawberry, which is my personal favorite.

Image: momo

The soft serve ice cream has a rich and simple vanilla flavor that brings out the deliciousness of the strawberries. It is topped with a generous amount of Star Night strawberry sauce, which goes perfectly with the ice cream, making it the perfect match!

Image: momo

There is also a "Mini Soft Serve" (450 yen) that has no fresh strawberries and just strawberry sauce.

Strawberry Chocolate Sundae

"Strawberry Chocolate Sundae" (700 yen, available for takeout) is a combination of vanilla soft serve ice cream with strawberry and chocolate sauce.

Image: momo

The rich vanilla soft serve ice cream is topped with plenty of chocolate sauce, making it sweet and delicious.

Image: momo

As I continued to eat it, I discovered strawberry sauce. There was also chocolate cream with cheese at the bottom, and the subtle sourness of the strawberries and cream cheese was exquisite! The crunchy rice puffs were also irresistible.

Image: momo

There is also a strawberry drink menu!

Not only sweets, but strawberry drinks are also a must-try.

There are three standard drink menu items, such as "Hot Coffee" (400 yen), and six strawberry drinks, including "Strawberry Soda" (550 yen) and "Hot Strawberry Milk" (550 yen).

This time, I had two types of strawberry drinks.

Strawberry milk smoothie

"Strawberry Milk Smoothie" (650 yen) made with plenty of strawberries.

Image: momo

It comes with fresh strawberries and its bright pink color is super cute ♡ You can feel the granular texture of the strawberries, and it's sweet and delicious. It's a blissful drink that will make you feel happy when you drink it.

Strawberry tea

"Strawberry Tea" (400 yen) is a set of straight tea and strawberry jam.

Image: momo

You can mix as much of the strawberry jam provided into your tea as you like.

The sweet aroma of strawberries spread softly throughout my mouth, making it very easy to drink and delicious.

The cafe is open all year round, so you can enjoy strawberry sweets even when they're not in season (the menu lineup changes). Be sure to stop by! (Text by momo)
