Lines can form even before opening at 07:00 at Bakery & Restaurant Sawamura Kyukaruizawa. Its specialty is the morning plate, which includes thick-cut toast, soft-cooked fried eggs, chicken ham or sausage, salad, and soup. The croissants, baked with fermented butter and carefully selected wheat, are renowned for their flaky layers and chewy texture. Inside, an extensive selection of breads—from crusty artisan loaves to sausage-filled options—makes choosing a delightful challenge. The spacious interior with high open ceilings accommodates 280 seats, offering a relaxing ambiance where guests can admire the greenery and autumn foliage through expansive windows. The covered terrace seats, where you can feel the trees and hear the babbling river, are a popular hidden gem, and staff may also suggest seats in the backyard garden. In the evening, the venue transforms into a Western-style restaurant serving tenderly braised beef stew and grilled chicken thigh alongside wine.
