Rondo
A moment to unwind in the city.
Opening at 6:00 near the Kyoto Central Wholesale Market area, Rondo is an unpretentious kissaten serving breakfast toast in thick or thin slices, keema curry, and various sandwiches from early morning through midday.
01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
As the aroma of toasted bread drifts out with its 6:00 opening, Rondo quietly anchors the morning routine for market workers and neighborhood locals alike. The morning sets let diners specify either thin or thick bread slices, with the thick cut offering a hearty, reassuring bite when starting a long day. Alongside the classic set featuring crisp, golden-brown mountain-shaped bread accompanied by a boiled egg, salad, and freshly brewed coffee, guests can also opt for a breakfast plate served with scrambled eggs and wiener sausages.
Orders arrive briskly, making it easy to finish a meal without feeling rushed before work or during a stop between early-morning travels. While regular patrons often exchange casual greetings against the nostalgic, down-to-earth backdrop, the shop retains a calm, easygoing atmosphere that welcomes solo diners without hesitation.
Beyond the morning hours, the kitchen transitions smoothly to convenient lunch fare, featuring cold and toasted sandwiches filled with egg or ham, as well as a mild, approachable keema curry that comes with salad and coffee. Retro kissaten staples such as mixed juice and lemon squash are also available, offering a pleasant spot to pause at your own pace until the 14:00 close.
