Cafe Tsuruya sits inside the Tsuruya main store in Shimotori, Kumamoto, close to Kumamoto Castle, Kumamoto Station and the shopping arcade. It handles prepared food, manju and gift sweets in the basement food floor and on the sixth-floor food section, and also sells Kumamon goods. It is a practical stop after visiting Kumamoto Castle, with clear signage for the main and east buildings and a coffee shop on the second floor. The range of Kumamon merchandise is smaller than expected.
