3 recommended shops in the area between Kintetsu Higashi-Hanazono Station and Hanazono Central Park that you want to visit when you come to Hanazono Rugby Stadium

■A shop that is happy to be open early in the morning■ "Coffee and coin laundry shop. Hare"

15 minutes walk from Kintetsu Higashihanazono Station. 5 minutes walk from the east exit of Hanazono Central Park. A stylish shop that suddenly appears.

Coin laundry? Cafe? No, neither! When I entered, I thought it was nice that they said ``Good morning'' instead of ``Welcome.'' I visited during morning time on a weekday. In the morning, we will serve you a coppépan with your drink. I also appreciated the service and had a drink.

There are three flavors to choose from: butter, jam, and red bean paste, and the first one is simple is the best! I chose butter.

In addition to the service menu, we also have plates! Both those who prefer a light breakfast and those who prefer a hearty meal should be satisfied.

It's close to Mt. Ikoma, and you can feel like you've traveled a little far from Osaka city, so it's a great place to go on a holiday if you wake up early! I visited on a weekday, but I guess there are a lot of people who live nearby on weekdays. It was my first time at a wonderful shop where I could relax.

■A hideaway despite being near the station ■Cafe & Deli Time

3 minutes walk from Kintetsu Higashihanazono Station. A hidden cafe & deli time located a little inside from the main street.

I visited for lunch. For lunch, there are daily specials and standard menus. The daily special on this day is ``Shio-koji Karaage and Chicken Cutlet.'' Changes daily! I wanted to say that, but I was drawn to the phrase "homemade honey mustard sauce" and ordered the chicken cutlet set meal. (sorry.)

What should I do if it comes in full force? I was prepared for this, but I was relieved to find that it was a reasonable amount. For the staple food, you can choose from white rice, multigrain rice, or bread, and the photo shows white rice. The quantity seems to be flexible as well.

It seems to be run by a small group of people, so it's recommended for a relaxing lunch. It looks like you can also take out.

I was also encouraged by the energetic staff. We are not on SNS such as Instagram, so please call us for the latest information!

■A cafe directly connected to the stadium that just opened in September 2022! ■ Hitotsunagi Cafe

Until now, there was no cafe in Hanazono Central Park, but this time it will open in September!

On the left side facing the main gate of the rugby field! I can see it! There is a signboard for “Hitotsunagi Cafe”! !

This cafe is run by Noside Co., Ltd. , which operates a general welfare facility, and is filled with wonderful ideas to connect the community. For more information on Noside, please check the link above.

On the walls are art by people with disabilities that Noside rents and sells. As a rabbit lover like me, this is an irresistible piece! cute.

For drinks, I ordered iced coffee and iced latte. I like the way a latte looks before the coffee and milk mix.

They also have some baked goods, making it a good place to take a quick break.
