The long-established cafe "Nishi Asahi" in Endoji has been reborn. "Cafe Restaurant & Guest House Nagonoya"

This time, we would like to introduce “Cafe Restaurant & Guest House Nagonoya,” located in the Endoji Shopping Street.

Nishi Asahi, a long-established coffee shop that has been loved for over 80 years in Endoji shopping street, was reborn as a cafe restaurant and guest house in 2015. The 2nd floor serves as lodging facilities for visitors from Japan and abroad, while the 1st floor serves as a café/restaurant where you can enjoy the famous "egg sandwich" and original coffee, and is bustling with people every day.

Endoji Shopping Street

"Nagonoya" is located in Endoji Shopping Street, known as the oldest shopping street in Nagoya. Although it is located in the city center between Nagoya Station and Marunouchi, it retains a retro downtown atmosphere.

The owner says, "I wanted to create a place where people from abroad could stay in Nagoya." Located on the road connecting Nagoya Station and Nagoya Castle, it is the perfect base for your stay in Nagoya.

Inheriting the spirit of the long-established cafe "Nishi Asahi"

The exterior of Nagoya

Nishi Asahi is a long-established cafe that has been loved for over 80 years in Endoji shopping street. However, it was closed in 2013 due to the previous owner's poor health. Although it once closed, it was revived thanks to the efforts of the current owner, Mr. Tao, and the people involved in the shopping street. In April 2015, it was reborn as a cafe restaurant and guest house.

"Egg sandwich" revived from the voice of the local people

Egg sandwich ¥750 (tax included)

Speaking of NAGONOYA's signboard menu, it is "egg sandwich".

This is a specialty menu item from the days of the coffee shop "Nishi Asahi," which was revived in response to the voices of local residents who said, "If you are going to open the shop in the same place, please bring it back!" The menu was recreated through a trial-and-error process with the signboard that was displayed in the store during the coffee shop days and with people in the shopping arcade who remember the taste from those days.

A two-layered sandwich with a fluffy egg and chopped cucumber. The soft-flavoured egg and crunchy cucumber with mustard mayonnaise are a nice accent. It's a taste you won't forget once you eat it.

We hope you will try their original blended coffee to go with the "egg sandwiches," which are filled with such passion.

Nishi Asahi, a long-established coffee shop, was a stylish establishment when it was first founded. In those days, coffee was brewed by boiling. Nagonoya's original blend was inspired by the words "long-established coffee shop," "stylish," and "boiled coffee," and the three types of beans are roasted and blended to create a gradation of flavors and a deep, refreshing taste.

MenuIn addition to the "Egg Sandwich", there is a full gourmet menu. During the lounge time from 18:00, there is a snack menu that goes well with alcohol, such as fried chicken.
