About

Opened in 2023 on Shijo-dori at the Yamato-oji corner, the Gion Shijo shop has a ground-floor sweets and tea shop and a tearoom on the second and third floors. The menu mirrors the Uji main shop, with matcha parfaits, warabi-mochi and matcha noodles, and adds a Gion-limited parfait plus seasonal parfaits. Its location one minute from Gion-Shijo Station makes it the easiest Itoh Kyuemon to fit into a day in Gion.
