[Gion Yoneyasu Coffee", a sweet shop opened by "Kyoto Gion Nigiri Gion Honten" and "Yoneyasu Coffee Roasting Shop".

November 7, 2024 open

Kyoto Gion Nigigiri offers a variety of sweets that can be enjoyed casually, such as cute-looking Daifuku (fruit-shaped Daifuku) and Dorayaki (dorayaki) filled with fresh fruit. On November 7, 2024 (Thursday), the Gion, Kyoto main store of Nigigi-Nigiri was renovated.
In collaboration with Yoneyasu Coffee Roasting Factory in Shiga, a new coffee shop space "Gion Yoneyasu Coffee" has been opened in the back of the store, where you can enjoy NINIGI's sweets along with delicious coffee hand-drip brewed by a coffee master.
