This cafe does tea, coffee and a small range of toast, cakes and desserts in an old building with lots of atmosphere. There were small vases of fresh garden flowers on the tables which added to the charm of the place. I had the cheesecake and a black coffee, both of them excellent. Service was very good.

昼食に飛び込みで入りました。特に下調べも予約もせず、ただ郷土料理の店で「昼定食 ままかり定食」とだけあったので、少しだけ冒険です。内装はほぼお寿司屋さん。
定食は煮物やサラダなど小鉢の類がいくつもあり、ままかりは酢漬け、お刺身、握りずしときっちり食べたと実感できる内容。このほかじゃこ山椒のご飯とお吸い物、デザートの白桃のコンポートまで出ました。
会計の時まで値段がわからなかったのですが、こちらの定食で2,700円也。カードは使えないようです。この内容でもし2,000円以下だったら大絶賛すべきでしょうが、このお値段なら美味しくて当たり前かと。ただ、味は確かですので評価はそれで付けました。多少観光地価格に目をつぶってでも、きちっと岡山の味を味わいたいと思われる方にいいと思います。

This cafe is quite famous in the historical area. We had branch there.
We ordered Miyake curry and cake set. The curry was really tasty with lots of vegetables and not so spicy. The desert were also good.
We stayed long cox this cafe made me relax. I strongly recommend it!
倉敷の美観地区で有名なカフェ。店内はいつも混み合っているようだ。
私たちはブランチを食べに行った。オススメは三宅カレーだ。たっぷり煮込んだカレーはとてもまろやかで野菜がたくさん入っている。ケーキセットはチーズケーキ、シフォンケーキ、パンナコッタの組み合わせでこれもまた美味。
何よりも癒しの音楽がかかった店内の雰囲気が良い。倉敷に行かれるなら是非この店へ！

Hachikengura is in the Kurashiki Art Hotel very close to the canal area. It serves set course dinner menus. The food is French heavily influenced by Japanese. It is fresh and competent but not exciting and Westerners many be a bit disappointed if expecting rich French food. This is Japanese in approach and in size. We enjoyed our evening.

We ordered one of it's signature misokatsu set dinner and their seasonal set dinner. Their misokatsu is baked instead of fried and when paired with their dipping sauce it taste heavenly.
Their vegetable based soup (non vegetarian) is divine, the flavor is just right and sipping the soup warms the soul in a cold rainy day.
There were two fish in the seasonal set, one was sardine but doesn't taste like it, it was the first dish we finished and it's that nice! The second one has a texture of a toad leg, together with its amazing mouthwatering sauce it's another favourite!
Total price for both sets was ¥2,900
They have english menus as well, staff there doesn't seem to speak english but that didn't bothered us.

Japan is hell for people with gluten intolerance so we were thrilled to find that most if the yakitori skewers on the menu had only salt and pepper on them. (Items in red come with sauce on them)
Moreover it was really delicious and a respite after all the sushi. Our favorites were garlic shoots in bacon, asparagus in bacon and beef with onion.
The place is a hole in the wall but service is friendly and prices are cheap.
Wish someone would franchise this place in North America. It beats any other fast food I can think of.

Just in front of Ohara museum store, an authentic old house with a cheap complete menu (meat or fish) in a simple but perfect atmosphere.

Reviewed By Kekoa303 - Hilo, Hawaii
Located right across the street from the Dormy Inn Kurashiki, this restaurant serves Japanese kaiseki (set menu) food for around 3000 yen, and other ala carte type food such as "moriawase" assorted sashimi, sushi, dancing squid cooked on a hot grill, raw wasabi "tako" octopus, tempura, and many other dishes. As I said, presentation was very good, however food quantity is lacking, so you will tend to order more dishes. Drink menu was good, from Japanese "nama" draft beers, to local regional sakes such as Bizen Sake no Hitosuji, to brands like Kuro Kirishima shochu out of Kyushu, and
regional shochu brands, too.
