I found this review unfinished sitting in the back of my drafts folder, so I thought I should finish it... I visited this Sweets Shop in November 2017.
It is Kouyou season (紅葉)!!! We are excited so we decided to go up to Ikaho, Gunma (伊香保、群馬県.
My friend took us to a place called: 鹿火屋, which literally translate to Deer Fire Shop, is a traditional Gunma Prefecture (群馬県) snack shop (和菓子屋).
as pictures are worth a thousand words, I will let you be the judge of this place. I, for one, found it fascinating, it was very uniquely Japanese and very traditional.

I wasn't much of a fan of the food, I felt it was too bland. It wasn't filling either. But if you are up for an interesting experience, to see and feel another side of Japan, I would suggest this place.
score: food: 7/10; atmosphere: 9.8/10
