Restaurant
It gets busy during lunch time. You gotta be ready for lining up for 10-20 minutes at least. If you are not in a hurry or in budget, grilled lamb would be satisfying. Grilled beef would be great as well. It offers extra salad during lunch time!

Cafe
Either gelato or soft ice cream is a savior especially on a hot day. Relaxing at cafe space.
Souvenir
Cheese cake, dairy products, and so on. Variety of souvenir is available at its store. Since some items should be refrigerated, I recommend to stop by before leaving Hiruzen.
Lastly
How do you find it? There are other places to eat or buy souvenir as well. However, in speaking of location, this place is quite convenient for either purpose. Hope it helps.
See you around!
So this is where you loafed when you should have been up the mountain!
