I visited this place located at the south exit of Nerima Station. The entrance door on the second floor had a rather unwelcoming atmosphere. Once inside, there was a large speaker at the front playing soft jazz music. I ordered the "Prosciutto and Cream Cheese Croissant Sandwich," "Tanaka Farm's Special Egg and Green Leaf Croissant Sandwich," and "Drip Coffee." After about three minutes, the coffee and yogurt were served.

The sign was a bit suspicious, which made entering feel exciting and nerve-wracking! However, I enjoyed a delicious croissant sandwich for lunch. It was loaded with prosciutto and cream cheese, and the pickles were a great palate cleanser. They seem to operate as a bar in the evening and a café during the morning and early afternoon. There were also other tempting menu items, so I definitely want to go back!

On a holiday morning, I went alone at 9 AM. At night, it seems to turn into a bar called SUR BAR. The atmosphere was completely like a bar. There were two tables for four in the front, but since I was alone, I chose a seat at the counter. After 21 hours without a meal, I ordered the Morning Toast B set, which included a boiled egg, pickles, and granola yogurt. The pickles were delicious. The hot coffee also had a rich acidity that I enjoyed. For a while, there were no other customers, which made me a bit tense. Then, three groups of customers arrived, and the place became a relaxing space where everyone enjoyed their time at their own pace.

◆The Morning B set has been transformed into an outstanding dish with toast, a boiled egg, homemade pickles, granola with yogurt, and drip coffee. It features a correct combination that isn’t flamboyant but is well put together. The toast, which comes wrapped in paper with butter for you to spread yourself, has a very ordinary taste with no noteworthy points. However, the boiled egg, labeled as "carefully prepared boiled egg (Tanaka Farm)," is particularly delicious with a rich yolk flavor. The medium roast drip coffee paired well with the morning meal. ◆This Month's Menu Morning B Set: Toast, carefully prepared boiled egg (Tanaka Farm), homemade pickles, granola with yogurt, drip coffee (morning) 700 yen per person. ◆How to Enjoy This Place <Profile> A café started by SUR BAR located on the second floor of a building near Nerima Station.

On December 23, 2019, I had about an hour to wait at the dermatology clinic, so I decided to have breakfast here. It seems to be a newly opened cafe on the second floor of a building. The entrance features a pitch-black sliding door, making it impossible to see inside. It gives off an unwelcoming vibe, but I hesitated not at all before entering. Once inside, I found a stylish and calm interior dominated by black, creating a perfect atmosphere! It seems like it becomes a bar at night, suggesting that it operates as a dual-purpose establishment. There are table seats in the front and a bar counter in the back. Since I was alone, I sat at the counter and looked over the breakfast menu. I decided to order the B set with croissant for 850 yen including tax. The cafe is run by two middle-aged people. After waiting for about seven minutes, my order was served. The coffee is brewed by hand, one cup at a time, and they don’t provide sugar or cream. The aroma is slightly grassy. Upon tasting, I noticed a blend of sweetness and a gentle bitterness. I rated the coffee ★3.3. The croissant was rich in buttery flavor, leaving my hands greased upon picking it up. It was warm, with a soft inside and a crispy, flaky exterior that crumbled onto the table. It was delicious! The pickles consisted of three varieties, providing a pleasant acidity, and the cold boiled egg had a semi-hard yolk. The liquid yogurt was paired with citrus jelly and granola. I rated the croissant in the B set ★3.5, and the value score was 930 yen/850 yen, giving an index of 1.09, which is quite good. I relaxed for a leisurely 45 minutes. This is a great place when you want to enjoy a slightly luxurious breakfast. Thank you for the meal!

I visited SUR + COFFEE, a sophisticated adult music bar that will start serving breakfast and lunch from November 1st, currently in its soft opening phase. The location is on the second floor of a building, and as I nervously opened the door, I was greeted by an incredibly stylish, minimalistic space. For lunch, I tried the croissant with prosciutto and cream cheese, along with homemade pickles and yogurt—it was so delicious that I finished it in no time! For breakfast, there’s also a toast set available, which makes it a great spot for those looking to relax in a hidden gem in the morning. The breakfast hours are from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, and lunch is served from 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM. The bar operates from 8:00 PM, Monday to Saturday (and 6:00 PM on Sundays), allowing for different experiences depending on the time of day. It's conveniently located near the station, but do keep an eye out as you might miss the sign and pass by!

An stylish cafe opened in Nerima, Tokyo on November 1st! I had the chance to visit during the soft opening. In the evening, they operate as a bar, but during the day, they make use of their quieter hours as a cafe. You can enjoy a stylish space for your morning and lunch meals! True to a bar, the interior is very chic, and the chairs are super comfortable (you know how some trendy cafes have incredibly uncomfortable seating?). This time, I tried one of the dishes that will be on the lunch menu: - Croissant sandwich (with prosciutto & cream cheese) - Homemade pickles - Yogurt with granola - Iced cafe latte The fluffy milk latte was aromatic and creamy! The crispy croissant was filled with generous amounts of greens, prosciutto, and cream cheese. With the yogurt on the side, I was surprisingly full! Besides the prosciutto sandwich, there's also an egg sandwich available. During the morning hours, it seems they offer a set with toast and boiled eggs. This place is perfect for solo diners or a date!
