What is dagashi?

Dagashi are cheap, traditional Japanese snacks and candies, many of them only 10 to 50 yen. Children in Japan have bought them with their pocket money for generations. At Momo Cafe you can pick from lots of dagashi and try retro games such as the lucky ball, a 10-yen game where you can win prizes.
