"Located right in front of you after exiting Ginza Station on the Hibiya Line, A5 exit. The shop is on the 7th floor, so it might be a bit hard to find. There is a sign in front of the elevator on the first floor, and you need to make an online reservation in advance to enter the shop. You will receive an email notification when your time slot arriv"

"I finally got to try the famous omurice I'd seen all over Instagram! 🍳 I'd heard there were long lines, but I was able to get in right away at 11:30 am on a weekday! However, there was a line forming when I left, so it's probably best to go at a time other than lunchtime on weekdays. The interior has a classic coffee shop vibe.☕️ They only accep"

"A classic, long-established coffee shop! It's a historic coffee shop that makes you think only a select few could have frequented it in the past. The revolving door is a famous feature. I visited around 2:00 PM on a weekday and was told there was a one-hour wait. There was a line going up the stairs to the second floor, with the end of the line b"

"I arrived at the shop before 8:30 AM on Monday! Although Google says they open at 8:30, the shop was already open and there were two groups of customers ahead of me. I was so torn, but I finally decided on the smoked chicken sandwich for ¥1200. The coffee was ¥700. When the sandwich arrived, I was shocked! Wow, it was amazing! I wasn't sure if I c"

"Open from 8 am, the cafe has a spacious interior, perfect for enjoying a leisurely morning. The charming female staff provided kind and hospitable service, making for a wonderful start to the day. As I'm visiting from overseas, I won't be able to come often, but I'll definitely stop by again when I'm in Ginza. I was delighted when they complimented"

"The ambiance is reminiscent of a certain love hotel's bar. Drinks are self-serve, with a variety of options like soup, tea, and coffee, which is fun. The food is decent, with the roast beef being delicious, but the desserts feel like they're made with a lot of frozen ingredients and pre-made. For around ¥3,000, it's acceptable... considering it's i"

"The shop has a retro and calming atmosphere! ✨ The clientele was mostly female groups. I was there for the Japanese chestnut Mont Blanc🎵 It was incredibly rich! The whipped cream wasn't too sweet and paired perfectly with the meringue base!! The tableware was also stylish and exciting. All the coffee is drip-brewed, a genuine European style with a "

"A delightful and relaxing spot offering delicious ginger ale, vegetable juice, and smoothies. The ginger ale, in particular, has a strong ginger flavor that is truly enjoyable. Their ice cream is also delicious."

"I visited this restaurant for the first time at the invitation of a vegan friend. It was a weekday dinner, and the course cost 7200 yen. It included a salad, soup, a platter of 9 different vegetables (吉祥箱), vegetable sushi, a daily changing dessert plate, and a drink. Each dish was meticulously prepared. The salad was very fresh and delicious, and "

"A lifesaver for my diet and body building! This is exactly what I was looking for! I ordered a hamburger. It wasn't greasy at all, it was light and the flavor was simple. The salad was oil-free, so I could eat it without worry. I started with the kombu water that came with it. The meat was also a substantial weight, so it was very satisfying. I c"

"A cat lover's paradise: A cafe that's purrfectly charming. I visited on a weekday afternoon around 11:30 AM. The interior is filled with antique furniture and cat figurines, creating a classic atmosphere with a touch of cuteness. It's definitely a place that would appeal to women, and by 12:30 PM, most of the seats were occupied by female patrons. "

"This cafe is run by Bunkido, the company famous for their "Castella Ichiban!" commercial. The first floor is a shop, and the second floor is the cafe. The interior is clean and comfortable, with a white theme. You can add a little dessert set to your drink for an extra ¥700. This time, I chose the Castella Fruit Sandwich and the Old-Fashioned Puddi"

"I had afternoon tea at Bonbonheur, located on the 4th floor of Ginza Mitsukoshi. Bonbonheur is a French and dessert cafe for adults, a collaboration between the Shirogane confectionery brand "La Maison Shirogane" and the French Lyon pastry chef "Sébastien Bouillet." The seasonal Sébastien Bouillet special was "Peach Melba." It was a dessert inspire"

"This is a long-established coffee shop that John Lennon and Yoko Ono once visited. As you climb the narrow wooden stairs and open the door, you are greeted by a charming space. I sat at the counter and had the bean curry. It was a beautiful curry! The colors were so vibrant, it felt like it would make you feel healthy. After the meal, I enjoyed a "
