01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Anyone looking for classic café sweets should head straight for the homemade custard pudding, known for the gentle spring you feel the instant your spoon touches it. Set firmly in the nostalgic old-school style rather than modern melt-in-the-mouth custards, it is served on its own or crowned proudly atop a pudding parfait. Layered with ice cream and sweet garnishes, the generous parfait works equally well whether you are rounding out a meal or dropping in for an afternoon tea break.

For a hearty midday meal, there is an extensive lineup of homestyle yoshoku—Western-influenced Japanese classics. The omurice features deeply seasoned rice carefully blanketed under a thin sheet of egg, providing a satisfying weight that goes well beyond light snack fare. Those seeking variety can turn to the mixed lunch, which combines fried chicken, minced meat cutlet, and cream croquette on a single plate, or choose the tender homemade hamburg steak lunch.

The dining room offers both counter seating and booth tables, making it easy for solo diners to settle in for an unhurried bite or a drink. Pairing your meal with an easy-drinking house blend coffee offers a comforting finish in a space well-suited for a quiet break from daily routines. True to traditional kissaten culture, smoking is permitted at the tables, and complimentary parking is available.
