A quiet morning visit to this coffee bar provided a serene and satisfying start to the day. Arriving around 11–12 PM, we were pleasantly surprised to find no line at all, making for a calm and unhurried experience. The highlight was undoubtedly the Amber Queen (琥珀女王). This signature drink is highly recommended for those who enjoy rich, concentrated coffee flavors without heavy bitterness. The brew was smooth, deeply aromatic, and well-balanced—offering a robust yet refined coffee experience that felt both luxurious and comforting. We also tried the Latte, which was milky, and with a pleasant coffee-to-milk ratio. While it may not stand out as exceptionally unique, it was a very well-executed classic. Overall Impression: A lovely spot for quality coffee without the rush. The Amber Queen alone is worth the visit, especially if you appreciate nuanced, strong-but-not-bitter coffee. The peaceful atmosphere and efficient service made it an ideal morning place.

This incredibly popular coffee shop is highly recommended! The decor is classic Western style, and several baristas are on hand. If you sit at the bar, you can watch them meticulously prepare the coffee. We ordered iced chocolate, their signature Cafe Royal, cheesecake and chocolate cake. As our drinks were being served, the lights at our seats suddenly went out. It turned out to be a presentation for the signature coffee—a fantastic touch! All the food and drinks were excellent. The iced chocolate had an incredibly rich cocoa flavor. I will definitely visit again to try other coffee varieties on my next trip!

The ancient coffee shop offers excellent service and a diverse menu. The coffee they serve is delicious; I tried two items from their menu, and both had unique flavors—sweet, yet the coffee still shone through. I sampled the iced coffee with the French name, which was surprisingly good. The ambiance is perfect for deep conversations with a partner, friend, or relative. The lighting is dim, creating a melancholic atmosphere that enhances the experience. However, there are a few areas for improvement, particularly the restroom. I found it less than clean, and there was no bidet. After enjoying a good coffee, having a clean restroom to visit is nice, but unfortunately, this place falls short. Another note is that they only accept cash—no credit cards—so prepare in advance—prices for coffee range from 750¥ to 1000¥. Overall, it was a good experience. I recommend visiting at least once.

A nice moody old-school cafe. They offer great atmosphere (with antique furniture, Chinaware sets, stained glass windows, dark lighting), music, and space. Around lunch time on a weekday, there was hardly any smoker, if that's a concern for you. But they do have a smoking section. The service was very attentive but without being in-your-face. I saw a young man behind the counter quietly looking around every so often, making sure everybody was getting what they wanted. Last but not the least, their coffee was legit. We had Cafe de l'Ambre (not overly sweet and nicely fancy) and a hot Dominican coffee (nice level of acidity). Their Mont Blanc was perfect -- just sweet enough to match the coffee. They also offer some discount from your second cup of coffee, which really comes in handy for someone like me in a place like this. I went for a second cup, could have had a third.

Great coffee with a rich, satisfying flavor. The cute cups add a charming touch to the experience. It’s a cozy little spot, perfect for a quick break. Just a heads-up: it’s cash only, so come prepared!
