所在地：佐賀県佐賀市大和町梅野

道の駅大和は、福岡市と佐賀市を結ぶ一般国道２６３号線と、一級河川嘉瀬川に隣接する風光明媚な場所にあります。ゆっくりと休憩できることはもちろん、品揃え豊富な地元の特産品や、併設のパン工房では、ここでしか味わえない野菜ピューレをふんだんに用いたパンの販売を行っています。また、オートキャンプ場が隣接しており、自然の中でバーベキューなども楽しめる施設となっています。

Vegetable puree bread only at the Vegetable Parsimon Artisanal Bakery!

Inside the roadside station, there is a bakery where fresh vegetables are pureed and baked into bread. The spinach and carrot bread (half loaf 280 yen) is the most popular, limited to 18 a day. The staff carefully prepare and bake bread every day without any fillers in order to provide bread that is good for the body and soul, so there is only a limited number available. Vegetable melon bread (150 yen) is also available, with melon bread using local blueberries on sale in the fall.

Introducing new Dried persimmon soft-serve ice cream!

The soft-serve ice cream offered at this bakery is also a big seller. The brand-new dried persimmon soft-serve ice cream (350 yen), using the famous dried persimmons, is unique to this roadside station. Then, there is the Rum and dried persimmon soft-serve ice cream (350 yen). Dried persimmons are soaked in rum and added into the ice cream, a popular treat with adults. Pear soft-serve ice cream is also available in October.

Relaxing on a bench along the river

The area by the Kase River next to the parking lot is equipped with more than 10 benches. Each one has a roof so you don’t have to worry about the sun or a little rain.

Autumn is a great season to sit on these benches and admire the scenery as the mountains turn shades of red and yellow. At Soyokazekan, we are expanding the variety of bento boxes like inari sushi and yakiniku bento boxes using Saga beef, both recommended for lunch, so we hope you will eat one for lunch while taking in the outdoor scenery.

This is definitely the perfect place to take a break during a drive and enjoy some vegetable and fruit breads from the bakery or dried persimmon soft-serve ice cream. Please come on by to relax and feel the pleasant breeze.
