Café Hypno

We will introduce the café “Hypno.” Hypno contributes to Nago. The company, which is called “Social Support ESPERER,” helps people who have some problems, such as mental disabilities, physical disabilities, depression, and Asperger syndrome. The company teaches them how to cook, grow vegetables, and serve. The company wants them to consider their future and find a positive way of living through work! Also, Hypno uses local food production and consumption. That yields a profit for Nago.

This cafe has lunch time from 11:30 to 15:00 and café time from 15:00 to 17:00. Also, Sunday is a regular holiday. There are about 20 seats. So, you should make a reservation.

It is not easy for you to find this café because its theme is a hiding place. Please look for a house with a small sign that says Hypno. The appearance is natural. When you enter, you can hear a nice music performance. There are a lot of instruments: piano, guitar and so on. And what kind of music the performer plays is jazz, rock, and folk. You can smoke only outside of the café. The garden of the café has plants and these make you calm. You can enjoy the stylish atmosphere with your eyes and ears, not everyone will be excited by lunch. 

Next we will introduce the menu. You can choose one of four main dishes at lunch time. The price is about 1,000 yen. If you pay 300 yen more, you can have a free drink and a cake. The main dishes are fish or chicken or pork or beef, and you choose rice or bread. Before the main dish comes, you can eat an appetizer and soup. The appetizers are colorful. You can enjoy various vegetables dishes you have never eaten. Also, if you order a dessert set, you can eat cookies for free and a different cake each day. In case you are full or you don’t have enough time to eat, you can get takeout! You can spend unhurried time here. 

This café is “Local production for local consumption.” So this café’s menu uses local materials. You can eat fresh food, for example, Okinawa soba is used as pasta. Next you may feel a quiet atmosphere that represents Japan. If you ask the performer, you might be able to listen to Okinawan music while eating. So you feel Okinawa!!!

We want to recommend this café not only to local people but also foreign people. If you have a chance to come to Okinawa, you should visit here. You can have a great time!
