This cafe is a lifesaver with its free Wi-Fi and power outlets at every table! The fact that they have separate smoking and non-smoking sections makes it accessible to everyone, which is a big plus. I initially planned to just get coffee, but my stomach started rumbling. They have a full dinner menu with options like curry and pasta, but I was worried about getting sleepy if I ate too much while studying. So, I decided on the salad bowl! Rustic Green (¥1,450) It seemed a bit pricey, but I've been lacking vegetables lately, so I figured I might as well get my nutrients in. The plate was piled high with green vegetables: kale, avocado, green beans, okra, broccoli, edamame, lettuce, and a small serving of brown rice (lol). The dressing was light and refreshing, making it a guilt-free and delicious meal. Before I knew it, it was almost 9 pm. They mentioned a two-hour limit if it gets crowded, but the cafe is spacious with plenty of seating, so there was no wait and I was able to stay a little longer than two hours. They're open until 11 pm, so it's perfect for late-night work sessions.

I've never seen passion fruit soy lassi at any other place before. It was fresh and delicious. It had a thick, yogurt-like consistency. I didn't take any pictures, though, haha.

I visited around 2:00 PM and it was almost full. There was a 2-hour time limit for use. The food is stylish, as you'd expect from a cafe, and the taste is average. The interior is quite spacious, and the floor is glass, so you can see outside well. It might be enjoyable even if you're alone. 😊 It's probably best to go with friends or someone you know well.

Located on the second floor of the subway building, directly connected to Shibuya Station via an underground passage. I was able to get in without waiting, even during lunchtime. The photo shows one of the weekday lunch menus, a colorful vegetable curry. The spiciness was just right and it was delicious. Orders are placed via smartphone and payment is self-service. The staff seemed a bit indifferent.

Free Wi-Fi and power outlets are available. They offer a cafe meal plan, and ordering drinks only is also acceptable. Mobile ordering and payment are self-service, and the only interaction with staff is when they bring your food and drinks. I used it for dinner with a friend last time, but I also saw people working remotely for long periods, so I think it's a cafe that can be used for extended periods.
