Mình đến đây lần thứ 2 rồi, rất ngon, bánh mềm xốp trong khi đó chủ quán còn nhiệt tình giúp đỡ nhóm người nước ngoài bị lạc mất điện thoại nữa

黒蜜きな粉パンケーキとカフェラテを注文。 パンケーキは焼くのに時間がかかるとの事でカフェラテを飲みながら待ち時間を過ごしました。 ふわふわプルプルのパンケーキであっという間に完食! 美味しかったです。

We loved our visit to Hale-caffe. The service was great as they were very friendly and kind to us and the food was just incredible. We had the brown sugar pancakes and the bacon and egg pancakes and they both exceeded our expectations! Would definitely recommend

Very good fluffy pancakes and a very abundant portion. I had the plain pancakes but they were anything but plain. They came with whipped cream, maple syrup and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. My wife had the banana and chocolate pancakes and she loved them. If anything, the portions were a bit too big but why am I complaining?! I killed everything and didn’t feel guilty at all! Can highly recommend this cafe. Stop by when in Ishigaki!
