cafe ＆ galerie NAJA
Asumigaoka, Midori Ward, Chiba city, Chiba, Japan
cafe ＆ galerie NAJA is a verified Chiba city café and gallery in Asumigaoka, Midori Ward, listed by the official Chiba City Tourist Guide as an eating spot within the Toke and Honda area. The tourism page gives a full street address of 2-23-8 Asumigaoka, confirms access at about 13 minutes on foot from JR Toke Station on the Sotobo Line, and identifies the business as a place where visitors can enjoy original meals and cakes while viewing changing exhibitions. That places it clearly within Chiba city limits and supports its inclusion as a specific dining venue rather than a vague brand reference. The same official listing adds useful practical detail: lunch service runs from 11:00 to 16:00, last orders are at 19:00, the café is closed on Thursdays, and there are 20 seats plus eight parking spaces. It also notes take-out, free Wi-Fi, non-smoking status and assistance-dog acceptance. Editorially, this is a sensible lower-top-ten pick because it broadens a restaurant list beyond station-area staples and seafood or izakaya formats. The appeal is not only food but the combination of café dining with a pottery and craft gallery, where exhibitions reportedly change every two weeks.
