This coffee shop was much more than I expected! They had so many delicious food and drink options that the decision was very difficult. We settled on a savory “croffle” (mix between a croissant and a waffle), berry pancakes and frozen matcha and coffee drinks. Reasonably priced and calming atmosphere with kind and attentive hosts. Thanks for a nice mini-break on a rainy day.

I highly recommend this place. I had their seasonal drink, and it was the best tea latte I've had in my entire life (and I used to work at an upscale coffee shop). Amazing atmosphere, and the service was impeccable. I can tell the owner loves this place by how much care has gone into every detail. All I can say is truly amazing, and I highly recommend checking this place out.

This is one of the best cafés I've visited in Japan. I'm all for supporting small independent coffee places, and this one did not disappoint. You can choose from usually 4-5 different coffees (I tried their house blend and one from el Salvador - both were amazing), and either enjoy the coffee on its own or pair it with some delicious small treats. They offer Japanese style pancake, croffles, parfaits and also some savoury snacks. The service was superb and the café has a very cosy vintage atmosphere. For anyone passing, please do not miss out on this gorgeous place!
