a very nice place for halal food. they also had a mosque, which is amazing Allahuma Barik.
their food is also really good, and they were selling halal snacks and other miscellaneous items by the side.
it's also near a bus stop and other cafes.

TL;DR:
A versatile spot near Mt. Fuji offering halal food and prayer services. Menu includes wraps, ramen, and curry rice, with hot/cold drinks. Small store for travel essentials. Prices range from 1000 to 2000 yen. Minor complaint about the small eating area, but overall a community-driven cafe worth revisiting.
Full review:
After exploring the scenic surroundings of Mt. Fuji and its lake, we decided to dine at this multifunctional spot that caters to both halal food enthusiasts and those seeking a quiet place for prayer. The menu boasts a variety of options, from wraps to ramen and rice with curry, accompanied by a selection of hot and cold beverages like chai and cocoa. The establishment also features a quaint store offering convenient travel snacks and items.
With prices ranging from 1000 to 2000 yen per person, the value is reasonable. While I have no major complaints, I might nitpick and mention that the dining area is a tad small. However, considering this cafe's community-driven ethos outside a mosque, any minor concerns seem insignificant. In conclusion, I'd gladly revisit this establishment on future trips to Mt. Fuji.

Nice halal kebab near Lake Kawaguchiko, there is also a halal mart and big mosque inside this cafe. They also serve Kousyu Sakumen (a type of Chicken Noodle meal) which is limited to 10 bowls per day, and is really good. Recommended!

Although we showed up around 18:30, the kind lady working at the restaurant still made us kebab wraps. It was cheap, fast, and satisfying. Unlike many kebabs it was not too greasy. It was well wrapped and did not fall apart as we ate it. We stopped by again the next day so our friend could try the cinnamon chai, it was also delicious.

This is strictly a review of the food and not the mosque. I do appreciate seeing a mosque to accommodate the muslim population. The food is also halal so hence the extra star.
I ordered a kebab and that was effectively a cold chicken sandwich wrapped in a flour tortilla with minimum effort. Heck I think you could stir fry the meat a little to give this some taste. Not sure how the reviews are so high, the other dishes may be better but unfortunately I wouldn't return to figure it out.

Be ready to wait at least 1 hour. The service is real slow. Looks like the lady taking your orders also prepares the food. You travelled all the way for a roundtrip to Mt Fuji and this is not how you want to spend your time. Skip this one unless the place is real empty.
