My all time favorite, charming, two-story, retro-japanese cafe in Tokyo. The tatami mats upstairs set for a cozy experience.
Things you should know:
I. SERVICE
The staff accommodates both the Japanese and English languages, providing a menu for the two. They provide a self-serve water station.
II. QUALITY
This renovated early-1900 house has an atmosphere that swipes you away from modern reality. The design is simple, traditional, and well maintained.
The coffee and food? Delicious and well presented. I highly recommend (and often crave) the hash beef with rice! If you want a more traditional style dessert, try the Amnitsu.
IV. CAPACITY
We came on a weekday around 9:30. There was a fair amount of available seating, so I highly recommend coming around this time if you want to sit upstairs with the tatami mats.
