About 16 minutes by car from Naha Airport. It is a general store and cafe located in Asato, Naha City. The highly sensitive sundries and café are very comfortable. It is worth going out of your way to visit.
Point 1: What is the location and accessibility of march?
March” is a general store and cafe located in Asato, Naha City. The name “march” is derived from the Okinawan dialect word for “pine tree.
There is a large pine tree on the premises of the store.
It is located a little far from Kokusai-dori (International Street) in the Omoromachi area, but it is only a 9-minute walk from Yui Rail Makishi Station.
After parking your car in one of the four parking lots, you will see the chic exterior, a combination of concrete and wood. You have a “feeling” that you might find something good here.
The store is divided into three spaces: a general merchandise section, a coffee shop section, and a free space.
The soft indirect light and the stylish space with a variety of sundries that make you want to buy them are very cozy.
In the café space, you can “try out” the tableware and cutlery sold in the sundries department.
It is a very good idea to be able to try before you buy to see how it is used.
Point 2: “march” coffee shop menu!
March’s coffee shop sells food, drinks, and sweets.
Food items include the standard hashed rice (900 yen), a filling soup (850 yen), and a hearty salad bowl (1,000 yen).
Soup, salad, bread, etc. can be added to any of these for an additional 100 to 200 yen, so choose according to how hungry you are.
There are also five popular types of mazesoba. All are reasonably priced at 850-900 yen with soup and onigiri (rice balls)! They come on a tray with beautiful colors to look at, but they must be Instagram-worthy!
The photo shows the limited-quantity rosemary and plum soda (500 yen), but the standard coffee, cafe latte, Earl Grey, and fruit teas are all served in stylish containers.
For sweets, in addition to cheesecake with seasonal sauce (420 yen), visitors can look forward to sweets from Hinbeeree (HIMBEEREE German for raspberry), a confectionery store in Motobu-cho that arrives every Friday or Saturday.
Traditional German and Austrian confections and sweets made with local Okinawan ingredients are sold with great taste.
The store is not only delicious but also enjoyable in terms of atmosphere and sense of style.
Also, the store is recommended for cat lovers as they have cats.
Point 3: Introducing the lineup of the “march” general merchandise department!
In addition to locally produced foods such as dressings, oils, and coffee, the general merchandise section of “March” has a “pop-up” style, with various stores opening stores in turn, and the free space and parking lot in front of the store always has a fun atmosphere with a variety of stores.
There are various genres of stores, including clothing, letterpress business cards, carpets, Indian and African sundries, and more.
There is also a “children’s clothing give-away market,” where items marked with a yellow circle are free of charge! The spirit of expanding the circle of recycling in this way is also nice.
Masks are a must for this store.
If possible, we would like to keep this café a secret. But I feel compelled to tell you about it.
If you have an intuitive feeling that “Oh, I want to go here! If you feel like you want to go there, don’t hesitate to go there!
