I'm going to give this place 5 stars because I love a good crispy chicken burger and they serve a good crispy burger. They also have outdoor seating (very limited) which I love.

Amazing. The staff are kind. The dining spaces feel private and cozy. Cheap price and the food portions are large!! the cold brew coffee is strong and comes in a wine glass which is interesting, yet fancy. We came for breakfast but will also come back for dinner tonight! Can’t wait to try the pizza!!!! :) hehehe

Highly recommended. The coffee is excellent - very hard to find in similar sized towns in Japan. The atmosphere is a perfect recreation of an American coffee house you would have found in Seattle or any other big city in the 2000s. Just a really amazing and surprising experience. The food was also excellent.
