Penny Lane Café & Bakery in Nasu Kogen, Tochigi Prefecture, is famous in this region for its pastries, the lovely location and its “Beatles” thing. The breads and cakes are truly scrumptious and there are many indoor and outdoor tables where you can sit and have a coffee while eating your purchases. Beatles paraphernalia, posters and photos are in every nook and cranny and the music playing lightly in the background is of course "the Beatles” .
