Garage Cafe 初茶

Garage Cafe 初茶 (Hatcha) is a small café that opened in March 2023 next to UP WORKS, a classic-car maintenance and restoration garage. The space combines café seating with a visible garage area where retro cars are displayed and worked on.

The menu focuses on coffee, drinks and homestyle lunch dishes; the business uses a Facebook page as its primary public profile. Several local directories and delivery platforms list the address at 5088-33 Kanbayashi, Matsumoto-shi, Nagano.

A relaxed café tucked beside an active restoration garage, where vintage cars form part of the décor and atmosphere.

Look out for:

• Displayed classic and retro cars in the garage area.

• Coffee drinks and simple home-style lunch items (menu varies; check social listings).

• A compact seating layout shared with the garage space — casual, workshop vibe.

• Delivery listings (Uber Eats) for some menu items.

Best way to experience it:

Visit during daytime to see the garage area clearly, and check the café’s Facebook page or delivery listings before you go to confirm current menu, hours and any special events.

• The café is attached to UP WORKS; expect workshop sights and occasional noise.

• Primary public profile is the venue’s Facebook page—use it to confirm hours and menus.

• Directory listings report closures on Monday and Thursday; verify before visiting.

• Seating is limited; popular times may be busy and the space is casual.
