I was looking for a place to relax during my stroll through Asakusa and stumbled upon this gem. It's a bit outside of the main Asakusa area, but it's quiet and peaceful with fewer crowds. Plus, the view is incredible! It's located along the Sumida River with a stunning vista of the Tokyo Skytree. The cake was absolutely delicious, leaving me completely satisfied. I was also surprised by the spaciousness of the restroom. The air conditioning was a welcome relief from the heat, but I'm definitely planning to return on a cooler day to enjoy the terrace seating.

I ordered the dinner course menu. For ¥2,900, it included an appetizer, soup, salad, main course, coffee or tea, and cake, which I thought was a great deal. The salad had a lot of celery... It was delicious, and they even brought out milk and syrup in pitchers. However, the interior could be a bit brighter. The food looked a bit dull in the dim lighting. The staff were nice. I was a bit unsure at first, but the male staff member wasn't rude, he just seemed to have a certain personality.

The view along the river was great 👍. I was already full so I only had a taste, but the cake was delicious! It was nice to have a glass of bubbly while enjoying the cake and alcohol together ✨. It was hot so it was good to be inside! They said the sofa seats were outside, but they're actually on the stairs leading up to the entrance. This place... I wish I hadn't chosen it 😅. Thank you for the meal 🙏.

I stopped by for some afternoon tea and sweets on a weekday evening. I had the banana crème brûlée and cake with a drink set. My companion's peach tart was also beautiful and delicious. We had given up on the weekend due to the long lines, so it was great to be able to get revenge on a weekday. Weekday evenings are less crowded and a good time to go. The interior was very stylish and the river breeze was pleasant. It cost less than ¥3,000 for two people. It was a delicious cafe. I didn't have any food, so I gave it 4 stars. I think it would probably be delicious.

The location is quite good, being near the river. The chairs on the first floor might be better? It's also perfect for a date. There's a terrace seating area, which is stylish and doesn't feel like Asakusa. This time I only had tea, but next time I want to try the cake or dessert. They also sold cakes and cookies.
