This coffee stand is located in the underground plaza near Exit B7 of Shibuya Station. It's directly connected to the station, and I recently noticed that it gets quite crowded on weekends. Madagascar Vanilla Shoe Ice Cream ¥700 Cream Coffee (L) ¥850 Drip Coffee, House Blend ¥700 The shoe ice cream is a limited-time menu available until the end of August. It's made with Hokkaido milk, fresh cream, egg yolks, and Okinawan brown sugar, resulting in a rich flavor. The crispy puff pastry from PUFFZ and the finishing touch of vanilla powder right in front of you are a perfect combination. It melts in your mouth and stays crunchy until the very end. You can also choose from various beans for the drip coffee. This time, I tried the house blend. It's served in a coffee server, enough for two cups, which feels like a good deal. It has low acidity and a mellow flavor, making it a perfect match for the ice cream shoe. My companion ordered the cream coffee, which was quite creamy and well-received. It's conveniently located directly connected to Shibuya Station, making it a great spot for meetings or rainy days. There were delicious canelé and scones lined up at the order counter, so I definitely want to visit again.

I ordered a ¥500 coffee and a ¥400 carrot cake, and the total was ¥800! When I asked for a receipt, they said they couldn't provide one. But isn't issuing receipts mandatory? ◎ 100 yen off coffee every day before 11 am I don't know about other drinks, but coffee was 100 yen cheaper. ◎ Delicious coffee I think you'll find the coffee 4 times more delicious than you expect. ◎ Small cake The size is about 30% of what I expected. You could probably eat it in one bite. ◎ High humidity inside the store It feels like a car with weak air conditioning. ◎ Location different from pin It's near Exit 7! ◎ Customers are urban Their clothes, gestures, and atmosphere are all very urban.

A cream puff at a cafe near Shibuya Station I visited "UPLIGHT COFFEE" which is directly connected to Shibuya Station's underground. It's a shop with an eat-in area on a spacious terrace right by the entrance to the Hanzomon Line subway. I arrived around 7:30 PM on a weekday and there was no wait. I was able to pay right away. I bought a vanilla cream puff for 390 yen. It looked more like a curry bread than a cream puff. The crispy crust and the rich, sweet custard cream were a perfect match and very delicious. I enjoyed it until the very last bite.

**Must-Try Menu Item** * PUFFZ Cream Puff - ¥350 --- The labyrinthine underground of Shibuya Station. A cafe with a delightful aroma, located near the B6 exit. I had passed by several times and was curious, so I stopped by one evening when I had some time to kill before a meeting. It was evening, so there were only a few customers. There were outlets at the counter by the window, so it seemed like a good place to work. Upon researching, I learned that UPLIGHT COFFEE is an original bake brand co-developed with Chef Ishii of "Cynthia"! When I asked the staff for a recommendation, they suggested the signature cream puff, so I ordered it. The crispy cookie dough paired with a custard bursting with vanilla bean flavor! I don't think anyone could dislike this! The smooth custard is not cloying, so you can easily devour one in a single sitting! The custard is generously filled inside the dough, creating a perfect harmony of flavors! This cream puff would make a delightful gift. I was also intrigued by the "Cynthia-esque" taiyaki madeleine, so I'll definitely be back! *Note: They accept cashless payments.* --- [If you found this helpful, please like and follow!]
