2020 Review Missed, Last one (*'ω'*) This year, I want to review without accumulating (lol) This is a place I visited a few times before starting Tabelog, and it was a revisit after a long time (*'ω'*) Pasta Set (1200 yen) with seasonal vegetable salad, soup, and glass dessert. I chose the Tencho Mash and Pancetta Cream Sauce Spaghettini for the pasta. The salad was fresh and beautifully colored. And the onion soup was incredibly delicious...!! The pasta was thin and cooked perfectly. The combination of cream sauce and pancetta's saltiness was excellent and very delicious. The glass dessert was jelly. The taste was average, but it looked cute, and when I saw the price being sold at the register, it was around 300-400 yen, so it felt very reasonable!! It was a very satisfying lunch. It's a cafe in the hotel? Or a lounge?? So, the atmosphere and service are excellent. When I looked at the Cross Hotel's website before writing the review, it said it is currently closed... because of Corona... I hate it (´;ω;｀) I sincerely hope for the reopening of business...

It's a brulee pancake. The caramelized topping is crispy and appetizing! I can't wait to eat it!!! The photo may look a bit heavy, but it's actually a small three-layered pancake with ice cream in between. I wish there was a bit more whipped cream. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is stylish and the staff were friendly, allowing us to relax. When I heard "Meat Lounge," I thought it was about meat, but it's actually about meeting people. lol Thank you for the meal! (^-^)v

I went to a sweets order buffet with a friend. We made a reservation for 11:30, but even though it was a holiday, there were few people and it seemed like we could enter without a reservation. The buffet is 90 minutes long and costs 1630 yen, including one drink. The price seemed a bit high for just sweets, but these were hotel-made sweets. In the end, I was very satisfied. You can order up to three items at once. I chose each sweet while being captivated by their cute appearance. I heard that the apple pie can also be served hot. The small attentions to detail were nice. Each sweet was small but carefully crafted, with macarons and chocolates the size of a pinky finger decorating them. And of course, they tasted delicious. I ended up eating about 13 pieces. I thought I might run out of drinks, but the tea came in a pot, so there was plenty. I definitely want to go again when they change the menu.

The bar lounge on the second floor of Cross Hotel Sapporo, located on the front floor, was quite comfortable and nice. I only used it briefly upon arrival, but they had a wide variety of food and alcohol options. They even had the recent Sapporo specialty, the "shime parfait".

Located inside the hotel, Meat Lounge is a stylish and upscale restaurant from the entrance to the interior. Upon entering, I ordered the Strawberry and Berry Pancakes (¥1200) along with a hot Darjeeling tea (¥300). The atmosphere was quiet, with only a few young women having a meeting at a reserved table. The pancakes arrived, consisting of three fluffy and lightly sweet pancakes with a thin texture. The ice cream topping was delicious but melted quickly. The whipped cream was light and easy to eat. The red compote topping and purple edible flowers added a touch of elegance. The fruit toppings included blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries, creating a berry-filled delight. Despite finishing the meal, the portion size and sweetness felt just right. Overall, it was a satisfying dining experience.

The Cross Hotel Lounge was easy to use ☆ For some reason, I had a sudden craving for pancakes and happened to see the lounge at Cross Hotel. It wasn't crowded even though it was the weekend, the seating was spacious, there were sofa seats for couples, and the sunlight was nice. It seemed like a good lounge to stop by for a break as a couple! The taste was also decent!

I went on a date with that cute girl (^3^)/ We came to a sweets buffet! It costs 1600 yen for 90 minutes with one drink included, and you can order 3 sweets at a time from a selection of 17. I started with the ★Chocolate Hazelnut Bread - crispy on the outside, chocolate hazelnut cream on the inside, warm and delicious! ★Mascarpone Ice Cream - refreshing with a hint of acidity. ★Souffle Cheesecake - moist cheese cake with a subtle sweetness. For the second round, I had ★Strawberry Mille-feuille - a moist pastry with a generous portion. ★Strawberry Roll Cake - a bit too sweet for my taste. ★Tiramisu - easy to eat with a moderate sweetness. For the third round, I tried ★Lemon Pound Cake - surprisingly delicious with a moist pound cake and tasty glaze. ★Fruit Tartlet - a cute bite-sized tart with a crispy and fruity filling. ★Yogurt Creme Brulee - refreshing yogurt with berry sauce and a crispy base. For the last round, I repeated my favorites: Lemon Pound Cake, Souffle Cheesecake, and Mascarpone Ice Cream. Finally, I had a Mini Croissant as a closure. It was like having lunch with sweets! I had a total of 13 items, but the moderate sweetness prevented any discomfort. I had so much fun that I stayed even after the last order was called. Sorry for staying too long! Thank you for the delicious meal!

We visited a stylish hotel for a dessert buffet at 12:30 on a Saturday with my favorite senior for our first date. The dessert buffet lasted for 90 minutes, with table orders and one drink included for only 1600 yen (including service charge and tax). The desserts were amazing, with my favorite being the Blancmange, followed by the Yogurt Creme Danje and the Fruit Tartlet. The Pound Cake with Lemon Glaze was perfect for summer, and the Black Currant Mousse was refreshing. The Cheese Souffle Cake was light and fluffy, while the Strawberry Roll Cake was the sweetest. The Chocolate Orange Cream had a nice balance of flavors, and the Tiramisu was rich and creamy. The Strawberry Mille-feuille was a bit disappointing as the pastry was too moist. The Mascarpone Ice Cream was light and refreshing, and the Raisin Croissant with Custard was a delightful treat. Overall, the quality of the desserts was exceptional, and the presentation was beautiful. I highly recommend this buffet for those who enjoy sweet treats and can eat a fair amount. The ambiance of the hotel was lovely, making it a perfect place for a date or a gathering with friends. Thank you for a wonderful and delightful experience!

Pancakes (Mixed Berry) + Iced Tea / 1300 yen. There are 6 types of pancakes and several drink options to choose from. The menu may have changed since June. The cost performance is amazing. The restaurant is located in a hotel, so the atmosphere is quiet and calm. I want to come back next time for the evening BAR TIME. The counter also seems like a place where you can relax even if you are alone. I really like this restaurant with a great atmosphere!

In a place where you can find a cafe nearby, the most relaxing feeling comes from the spacious lounge with a luxurious atmosphere and comfortable sofa seats. This Meat Lounge, with its high-quality and luxurious space, still seems to be a hidden gem as it was almost empty from the moment I entered until I left. I initially had two other cafes in mind to visit, but they were both crowded, so I ended up here. The first cafe had a long line inside and felt cramped, so I left. The second cafe had narrow spaces between seats, so I skipped it and came to Meat Lounge. I ordered a coffee and New York cheesecake. The coffee had a subtle sweetness and a mild bitterness that made it easy to drink. The New York cheesecake was visually appealing with strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries, and it tasted delicious with a good cheese flavor. Overall, I would rate it 3.8 for taste, 3.4 for service, 4.3 for atmosphere, 3.6 for value for money, and 3.4 for drinks. The location is 2F, Cross Hotel Sapporo, 2-23 Kita 2 Jonishi, Chuo-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido. I look forward to visiting again when I'm in the area next time.

I found my favorite bar. It's conveniently located within a 5-minute walk from Odori Station, with great access. I love the food, cocktails, and atmosphere. I like to stop by for a drink before a drinking party as an apéritif. It's a hotel bar with no cover charge, and the prices displayed include tax and service charge, making it more affordable than I thought. The portion of the Bagna Cauda was larger than expected, and it tasted delicious when paired with the sauce. The cocktails were also well-made and satisfying. There are sofa seats with low tables at the back where you can relax. It can be used for various situations, such as sitting alone at the counter, a date, drinking with 3-4 friends, or even for groups of 20 or more with the option of private rental. ☆*:.｡. o(≧▽≦)o .｡.:*☆

It's a small hotel but stylish with black and red tones, so I thought they would be open for the New Year and decided to visit. Initially, I wanted to go to agora for the buffet style lunch, but it was full, so I ended up at the restaurant on the lower floor. The atmosphere seemed nice for dinner as well. I ordered the lunch course with appetizers, omelette with tomato sauce and duck with balsamic vinegar, among other dishes. The pasta dishes were a bit salty but had a good texture. The desserts were cute and the coffee was a good blend. The cost performance is good, recommended for young couples or girls' gatherings. Not suitable for those with high blood pressure or those looking for authentic Italian cuisine.

Visit date: ★I have been repeating many times! It is a lounge located in the Cross Hotel between Sapporo Station and Odori. It is not very crowded during weekdays, so I like that I can relax even though it is in the city center ♡ [Food eaten] <<Special plate lunch 1000 yen (including service charge)>> It includes soup, salad, focaccia, main dish, and mini dessert, making it a great deal. You can also add coffee or tea for an additional 200 yen. ★Soup The soup comes out first. It is a consommé soup with burdock and carrots. The beef (?) broth is rich and very delicious! ★Lunch plate The salad is very generous! The vegetables used may vary depending on the season. For the main dish, you can choose between hamburger steak or chicken gratin, but I recommend the hamburger steak ♪ It is served in a mini Staub pot, so you can eat it piping hot. The focaccia is chewy and goes well with the sauce from the hamburger steak. ★Mini dessert Three kinds of bite-sized mini cakes are served. The presentation is cute and enjoyable to look at (*´ω｀*) <<From the cafe time menu>> ★Maple gelato and waffle 850 yen (with drink, excluding service charge) The waffle has a crispy texture ♡ The sweetness of the maple gelato and the tartness of the berries make it enjoyable without getting tired. The stylish presentation will lift your mood!! *Limited menu from January to March 2014. [Atmosphere and service] - Stylish and fashionable space ♪ You can relax during weekdays. - There are slightly more female customers. Some people are having business meetings on weekdays. - The staff are all friendly and have a good vibe. - They come to take your order and bring food at the best timing. [Repeat MEMO] - The lunch is very cost-effective ♡ I want to try other cafe menu items as well. - The bar time atmosphere seems nice too, so I'm curious about it ♪ - It may be closed for private events from time to time, so it is recommended to check the official website.

When I'm in the city, I often use this place for work meetings. The lounge on the second floor of Cross Hotel has a stylish entrance with a bar counter. There are both counter seats and comfortable sofa seats, which I recommend. The lunch menu offers a great deal with a plate full of vegetables and a choice of two main dishes. This time, I chose between a hamburger or salmon with honey mustard sauce. The plate also includes two salads, tomato and mozzarella cheese, short pasta, sweet potato with walnuts and raisins, homemade focaccia, beef tail and root vegetable soup, 3 mini cakes, and a drink. All of this for 1200 yen is quite a good deal! The salads are unique with a variety of vegetables, making it even more appealing.

It is located on the second floor of a cross hotel. The parking fee is more than 5000 yen, otherwise parking fee will be charged. Please be careful if you are driving. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is urban and stylish like a bar. However, the counter is nice but the table seats are too low, so you have to hunch over when eating (laughs). The tables are too low. Salad plate lunch! 1000 yen. You can choose between stewed hamburger or chicken gratin. Soup: Gobo, carrot, and chicken gara soup with rich flavor. One plate: A large focaccia with plenty of salad, tomato salad with daikon, stewed hamburger, and penne with tomato sauce flavor. Dessert: Assorted small cakes. Drink: 200 yen (tea or coffee). The hot items are really hot! But you can finish eating while it's still warm. The soup, stewed hamburger, and coffee are all very hot, so please be careful. The staff will probably tell you too (laughs). The soup has a well-prepared taste. The stewed hamburger uses plenty of beef and it doesn't feel like it's frozen, it feels like it's made properly. The dessert is delicate, high in artistry, and elaborate. There are many dishes, the cost performance is good, and the atmosphere is nice, so I felt so happy to experience this uplifting feeling for only 1000 yen during the daytime (laughs).

I went to a cafe on Christmas Eve with my friend. I had been wanting to go there for a while, so I was looking forward to it! Since we went right after the opening, there were no other customers yet. We were told to sit wherever we liked, so we chose a seat by the window where we could see outside. There was a bright red piano nearby, which was unusual, so I took a lot of photos of it. My friend ordered lunch, which had a lot of vegetables and seemed good for the body! I ordered a dessert, which was like a macaron parfait and almost too beautiful to eat... I took a lot of photos of that too. The taste was also quite good. There were other desserts that caught my eye, but I'll have to try them next time. I would love to go on a date there! ♡

Located between Sapporo Station and Odori Street, there is a hotel that exudes a quite unique atmosphere. "Cross Hotel". I had lunch at the cafe lounge there. The hotel interior, from the elevator to the restroom, is dimly lit, with a color scheme of white, black, and red, creating an extreme "adult" atmosphere. Personally, I'm not a big fan of the interior, but it's interesting in its own way. The cafe lounge is on the second floor of the hotel. I was seated by the window on this day, giving it a lounge-like feel. There were low tables and large sofas, creating an atmosphere that didn't feel like a typical cafe. The lunch set I chose was a salad plate lunch for 1000 yen, where you could choose between hamburger or chicken gratin. I chose the hamburger. First, the soup was served. I was surprised by the soup. It wasn't just a simple consomme soup. It seemed to be made with chicken broth, as it contained chicken and vegetables, and it was delicious. The hamburger, loaded with vegetables in a Staub iron pot, was served on a "big, big plate." It came with a chicken salad, focaccia, tomato sauce penne, mozzarella and tomato, and warm dishes were served warm, with fresh vegetables. The hamburger in the iron pot seemed like it was freshly handmade, not pre-made. It remained warm until the end, and was quite tasty. The dessert was beautifully decorated and bite-sized, which was delightful. To provide all these dishes for 1000 yen, it seemed like the restaurant was really making an effort. I heard that the cafe lounge is the same as the restaurant Agora on the third floor. They probably serve Agora's dishes (or part of the buffet dishes) in the cafe. It goes beyond just a cafe lunch. When you think of a Sapporo Station lunch, you might imagine the restaurants in Sapporo Station or hotel restaurants/buffets, but if you want to have a calm, one step above lunch in a different atmosphere, I recommend visiting this place (even for a solo male diner). Thank you for the meal. Next time, I want to visit the buffet at Agora, which Tom highly praises.

After indulging in a feast at Agora, I thought about heading home because I was feeling sleepy. However, I decided to explore nearby cafes on the second floor. Surprisingly, they were open even during the day. I couldn't help but imagine coming back at night. The atmosphere was upscale, with a mix of couples, businessmen, and older ladies who had just finished their buffet. I inquired about having a cocktail, even though some staff members were inexperienced in making them. While waiting, I spotted a familiar face - one of the male staff members from Agora. He seemed to work mainly at this cafe, while helping out at Agora occasionally. The Moscow Mule he prepared was served in a frosty mug and was a refreshing treat. As I sipped on it, I noticed a couple nearby who seemed eager to head home due to their sleepiness. I decided to stay a bit longer, enjoying the calming ambiance of the counter. I couldn't help but think that this place would be perfect for a moody evening out.
