Their matcha, especially the matcha espresso latte, remains a top choice, perfectly balancing flavors. The bakery items, like the butter roll and matcha bread, continue to receive high praise. Recently, customers have enjoyed the roast beef, pulled pork sandwich, and the amazing chocolate briochi, highlighting the big portion and great taste of the pulled pork sandwich, although some found it a tad salty.

Drinks may take some time to prepare, but the staff is friendly and polite, providing quick service when possible. The ambiance is pleasant, with good music and comfortable seating, making it an ideal spot for studying, working, or meeting friends.

The menu is flexible, offering options for different appetites, and many visitors look forward to returning for more. Guests are encouraged to check their Instagram for updates on business hours and special menus.

Customers recommend ordering everything at once to avoid lining up again. The atmosphere is welcoming, and many find it a great gem for a quick breakfast or snack, especially loving the matcha and Ube pastry.
