This is a beautiful little café by a children’s park. The service here was very kind. The food was delicious. The coffee was amazing. They even had art on display and for sale and we bought some things from them as well. My only recommendation is having a high chair or two for people with small children

I went for an afternoon snack. Ate the almond and cranberry cake, and the ginger tea made with soy milk. It was the perfect snack. The customer service was so kind. I saw her speaking with everyone there. She told me my Japanese practice was good. The atmosphere was very soothing.

Nice place to have some delicious plates at an affordable price. Don't forget the 'Zenzai' ... it's sweet beans with mochi (rice cake), shave ice and a splash of condensed milk...awesome!

I had a wonderful afternoon here while escaping the rain. The ladies who work here were very warm and welcoming, I felt right at home. I got a chicken curry which tasted delicious and all the ingredients tasted fresh. The tea jelly and the sugar ginger tea I got were lovely too. This is a cozy, quiet cafe. Perfect for reading and relaxing. Thank you very much for the wonderful experience, I’d like to go again soon!
