On this day, I had some errands in the Hamamatsucho area early in the morning, and I was looking for a place to have breakfast. There was only a certain hamburger chain nearby, and to my surprise, there were foreign tourists with backpacks lining up even in the morning! I didn't feel like dealing with the crowds, so I looked to the side and saw a sign for "Renoir." I noticed that there seemed to be available seats by the window on the second floor, so I decided to visit this place. There are stairs in front leading to the second floor, but it's nice that there is also an elevator at the back. The interior of the restaurant is more spacious than I expected, with completely separate smoking and non-smoking sections. I chose the non-smoking section. The smoking section seemed smaller and more crowded. When I looked at the menu, I found a nice-looking breakfast set, the "Renoir Blend" for 570 yen, with an additional 200 yen for the "Morning D Set." This set includes a fresh vegetable and onsen egg salad, which is a fresh menu option for me at Renoir, known for its Danish pastries and sandwiches. I wondered if the menu had changed recently. Come to think of it, the logo has also changed... After researching, I found out that they have expanded their brand into multiple brands. There is Cafe Renoir, as well as other familiar coffee shops like Cafe Renoir and Miyama Coffee. Now, my coffee and salad have been served. A large plate with lettuce, tomato, onsen egg, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, and a block of toast Danish bread, providing a good balance of nutrients and a visually appealing presentation. The Renoir Blend coffee is quite dark roasted, has a good foam, and is brewed very well. Without intending to, I ended up having a salad breakfast at Renoir, starting my day off on a good note. The hamburger chain on the first floor was packed early in the morning, but the atmosphere on the second floor here was calm and not too crowded, making it a hidden gem. There were only a few groups of people waiting. With separate smoking and non-smoking sections, a great atmosphere, and delicious coffee, I will remember this place for future meetings in Hamamatsucho.

The restaurant where I used to go after finishing my annual health check-up has closed down. So, this year, I was unsure where to go, but since I finished early, I decided to have breakfast at a cafe. The ham and egg sandwich at the cafe was delicious! I ended up staying there longer than I planned.

There are many bars around Hamamatsucho, but most cafes and coffee shops close around 8pm, making this place a rare find that stays open until around 10pm. It offers a peaceful atmosphere away from the noisy surroundings, where you can enjoy a cup of coffee. While the coffee is a bit on the pricey side, they offer half-price refills, making it a good place to relax and unwind.

During work, I had a job near Hamamatsucho in the morning, and I also had work in the area in the afternoon, so I was looking for a cafe where I could spend some time and decided to have lunch at Renori. The restaurant is located on the 2nd floor of a building right near the A3.6 exit of the Oe Line and Toei Asakusa Line, where there is a McDonald's. The entrance has a calm cafe atmosphere, and you can see Tokyo Tower from the window side. There are smoking and non-smoking seats available. Today, I ordered the Special Lunch Plate with Healthy Chicken Sandwich made with domestic steamed chicken (served with consomme soup and kinpira gobou) and 2 iced teas. The food arrived in about 5-6 minutes. I chose the Healthy Chicken Sandwich from the lunch set because I wanted something light to nibble on, and I paired it with iced tea. The plate came with consomme soup and kinpira gobou as sides, and the consomme soup was quite flavorful. You can choose from several drink options, and refills are provided at half price. The chicken sandwich was light and made with steamed chicken, with lettuce and a good mix of mayonnaise and mustard for flavor. The atmosphere and the view from the window side were nice, making it a pleasant dining experience.

Today's lunch series in Hamamatsucho/Shiba Koen area (1,089th restaurant). Today, I visited Cafe Renoir, which was renovated about 2 years ago. I had visited the cafe when it was still called Kissaten Room Renoir, but this was my first time since it became Cafe Renoir. The atmosphere used to be classical, but now it has become much brighter and more pop. I ordered the Pizza Toast lunch set (1,090 yen), which came with Pizza Toast, Consomme Soup, and Kinpira Gobo. I chose a Steamed Milk for my drink. The Pizza Toast was quite thickly sliced. The taste was just average. The side dish at Renoir is Kinpira Gobo, which is interesting. The other sets also come with this. It's not bad, but I wonder why they serve this instead of salad. The Consomme Soup was also just average. For over 1,000 yen, the cost performance is not great. However, the atmosphere is nice. It's a relaxing place. In Daimon, there are not many cafes with this kind of atmosphere where you can have meetings, so I think this place is quite convenient. That's the charm of Renoir. A valuable cafe near the station.

After 21 months, I finally visited Tokyo again! Yesterday, there was 10 centimeters of snow, but now it's all gone. I was walking around Daimon looking for a place to have lunch after lunchtime, but it was quite difficult to find a spot to eat due to the smoking restrictions. Eventually, I ended up at Café Noir. I ordered the Healthy Chicken Sandwich with steamed chicken, consommé soup, and for some reason, a side of burdock root stir-fry. I actually wanted an Egg Sandwich, but the burdock root was a good source of fiber. I decided to take a break and have a smoke, but surprisingly, the café was only for heated tobacco products. Since the snow from yesterday had all melted and the weather was clear, I ended up lining up at the outdoor smoking area for a quick smoke.

I visited a cafe near Zojoji Temple to take a short break. I climbed the stairs to the second floor and found a nostalgic cafe setting. The menu included dishes like kinpira burdock sandwich, creating a cozy atmosphere. I ordered pizza toast and a café latte. The toast was soft and fluffy with a good thickness. There was plenty of cheese, and it was delicious. The staff were also friendly and provided good service.

I arrived at the meeting with the client at the Daimon area. The designated meeting place was "Cafe Renoir Shiba Daimon store". The location is on the 2nd floor of a building on the left side a little further from the Daimon intersection towards Zozoji Temple. I often use "Kissaryoku Renoir" for work meetings, but this "Cafe Renoir" is my first time. I do not know how they differentiate between the brands. When I entered, it was bright and modern, unlike the slightly dark and old-fashioned atmosphere of a traditional kissaryoku. And unlike the business booths that are often found in "Kissaryoku", this place is a pure cafe. I sat at a table by the window. The large window offered a good view of the outside street. Now, it's time to order. In addition to the familiar drinks, the menu also had several light meals such as pasta, which are not available at "Kissaryoku Renoir". I ordered a "Vienna Coffee". As I mentioned in a previous review, "Vienna Coffee" means "Vienna-style coffee", but it does not actually exist in Vienna, Austria. It is a way of drinking that originated in Japan, but I used to drink it often at a coffee shop I frequented in high school, so it's one of my favorites. It's becoming less common to see it in coffee shops these days, so when I use Renoir, I tend to order it quite often. The "Vienna Coffee" that came out was a traditional cup with foamy coffee topped with plenty of whipped cream. The whipped cream is slightly sweet, while the coffee underneath is bitter, so you can enjoy a subtle sweetness and a gradual change in flavor as it melts. Although the appearance is slightly different, I think the taste is the same as "Kissaryoku Renoir". I enjoyed it until the end. The bill was 740 yen. Thank you for the meal!

I don't go to Renoir often, but I love Cafe Renoir. During the telework period, I was very grateful for the Meguro and Daimon stores! You can choose a salad for breakfast, and the classic French toast is delicious. The seating is spacious and the staff are very kind. I hope Cafe Renoir will expand more in Tokyo!

It's been decades since I last visited a café for a meeting. The café used to be called Café Renoir, but it has been renovated and now has a trendy new name. The interior is clean and stylish with small but comfortable chairs. I was surprised by the incredibly low prices on the food menu – I never knew there was such a nice café near the office. I ordered a hot coffee since I had already eaten breakfast. However, I was shocked again when I went to pay – the coffee cost over 600 yen! I had mistakenly assumed that the coffee would be cheap since the food was inexpensive. I guess that's what they call a "morning set," right?

I have visited Cafe Renoir several times. I'm not sure what the difference is between Cafe Renoir on the second floor of the McDonald's in Daimon. The price is the same, with iced coffee costing 640 yen. The second cup is half price. While regular coffee is served at a cafe, there was no hot Japanese tea available here. On my way out, I received a morning service ticket that can be used until the end of this month.

Mer Park Tokyo has disappeared from the restaurant list after the human dock. What should I have for lunch? It's raining and I want to stay close by. So, I decided to pop into the Renoir above McDonald's. When I think of Renoir, I imagine sinking into a fluffy sofa surrounded by smoke, but this place was a bit different. It felt more like a cafe. They have completely isolated the smoking room, creating a comfortable space. It reminded me of my student days, so I ordered the pizza toast set. Thick toast with plenty of cheese. It looks unhealthy, but it tastes delicious. The coffee is also delicious. It's no wonder it's a long-standing coffee shop.
