Shigure Bento Box and a relaxing time of coffee and sweets at the prestigious 3-star Kikunoi.

Salon de Muge opened in 2017 right nearby Kikunoi’s main restaurant so that guests could experience and enjoy Kikunoi’s authentic Japanese cuisine in a more light-hearted setting.
Freshly-brewed coffee and authentic warabimochi are offered from the afternoon for a relaxing time of coffee-drinking and sweets.
Its aesthetic was designed after a traditional mountain cottage combined with more modern architecture, and this creates a calm atmosphere in which guests can forget about the passage of time while gazing at the green mossy garden outside.
We look forward to your visit to Salon de Muge.
