Tips for Enjoying Breakfast in Kamakura
There are relatively few restaurants in Kamakura that serve breakfast. Many establishments in the area typically open around 10 or 11 AM, so places offering breakfast early in the morning are limited. Therefore, it’s important to research ahead of time to find spots that cater to early risers. For example, places like “yoridocoro” and “Cinnamon & More”, introduced here, are valuable options where you can enjoy breakfast starting early.
