The Oishii Gakko School Restaurant in Yamanashi prefecture

Last edited Thu Aug 20, 2020, 01:44 AM - Edit history (1)

Oishii Gakko was once Tsugane Elementary School.
It is located in Hokuto City, in Yamanashi Prefecture

The school closed down in 1985, and reopened in 2000 as Oishii Gakko, meaning “delicious school”.

Oishii Gakko is a restaurant, bakery and local market.
The inside looks like a classroom
The tables and chairs are from the Showa Era (1926-1989)
The food is served on metal trays that were used at the school in the 70's and 80's.
Most of the food is local

On the menu is the Oishii Gakko School Lunch.
It is similar to Japanese school lunches. You can either have curry or stew
They have other choices on the menu, but we figured "Why?"
It's a restaurant designed to look like a school.

After eating you can go to the bakery and the coffee shop

The restaurant is opened at lunch and dinner times (closed from 2:30-5:30)
The coffee shop is opened before and after lunch.

It is worth the visit
