I stopped by for the first time in a while when I had to take a bus from Shibuya. I ordered a Cold Brew in regular size for 550 yen. It was a cold brew coffee, which had a rich flavor. However, I felt that it was not cold enough. It seemed like they had chilled it with ice cubes rather than keeping it refrigerated. Storing coffee at room temperature slows down the deterioration compared to keeping it warm, but it is better to store it in the fridge (preferably chilled). Also, dilution from ice is not ideal. I also tried the Scone Sandwich for 450 yen. It was a scone filled with whipped cream and topped with mango and passion fruit sauce. The surface was crispy and crunchy, and the cream and sauce prevented it from being too dry.

I used to say that they are open on weekends, and this time I was able to visit and rest on a weekend evening. I ordered what you see in the photos. There is nothing particularly noteworthy, but the quality is consistent, so it's good.

I had never been inside before, so I decided to start with a takeout cream puff. Everyone else seemed to be ordering cream puffs and coffee too... maybe just a coincidence. The crispy and thin cookie dough, paired with plenty of cream, really enhances the deliciousness.

If there are empty seats, it's great. It's close to the station so you won't get wet. If you sit outside, even with a baby stroller, it won't be a bother. It gets crowded on weekends, so timing is key. But the coffee comes quickly, which is nice. The coffee was delicious too.

Shibuya's UPLIGHT COFFEE is known for its creamy custard cream puff ☺️ Located in the underground area of Shibuya Station, this open cafe offers: ☑︎ Vanilla Custard Cream Puff (¥350) ☑︎ Ginger Ale (¥500) The custard cream has a rich vanilla bean aroma and a creamy texture. The pastry looks crispy but is actually moist inside. It's small in size, so you can easily finish it in one bite. With plenty of seating and available power outlets, it's a convenient cafe to work or take a break. #uplightcoffee #vanillacustard #cream puff #Shibuya cafe #Shibuya gourmet #Shibuya sweets

I visited on a regular Monday evening around 8:30 pm. There were hardly any customers. ☑︎ Vanilla Cream Puff ♡ 350 yen I've bought it a few times already, but it's still delicious! It's different from the typical cream puff, with a crispy crust. And most importantly, the cream inside is delicious!!! I've tried many cream puffs, but I confidently recommend this one! ☑︎ Madagascar Vanilla Shoe Ice 630 yen The crust is probably the same as the vanilla cream puff. The ice cream is authentic vanilla ice cream and delicious. But I thought it was a bit expensive... Also, eating the ice cream and crust together is too difficult... I want to keep coming back to this cream puff shop to eat the vanilla cream puff!

Sunday at 3pm, almost full. ☑️ Coffee ☑️ Carrot cake muffin-style carrot cake. Cream cheese is piped on top like cream, with walnuts on top, very cute. The dough is moist and crumbly, quite sweet. It has a strong cinnamon flavor, with plenty of carrots and raisins. It's as sweet as muffins from overseas, so coffee is a must.

This was my second visit to the store, as they were running a promotion for a free cream puff. I decided to get one to eat there and another one to take home. The cream puffs were small with a crunchy outer layer and a rich creamy filling inside. They were on the sweet side, which I personally like. Although they were small, they were just right for a little snack. The store had a lot of seats, but it was noisy being in a train station, so it wasn't very relaxing. They only provided one ice pack for the takeout, and they only accepted cashless payments, which was a bit inconvenient. Overall, I enjoyed the cream puffs, but the process of ordering could be improved. Two cream puffs for the price of one, no drink included, cost me ¥350.

There is a wide variety of light snacks and desserts such as cream puffs, quiche, and open sandwiches. It's great that you can also order soy and oat milk. There are seats where you can charge your devices right in the heart of Shibuya, making it a recommended spot even when you want to work. Café with terrace seat inside of Shibuya Station.

For lunch and snacks, I got a takeout of vanilla choux cream. The choux pastry was crispy even after some time, and the custard inside was rich and creamy with just the right amount of sweetness. The taiyaki madeleine was not just visually appealing, but also delicious. Despite its small size, it was quite substantial and not soggy even after some time. The macaroni gratin was unexpectedly good, with a creamy and slightly salty sauce. It was quite filling and satisfying to eat. The coconut milk bread had a lovely coconut aroma and a great texture from the coconut flakes on top. The bread itself was delicious too. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised and will definitely be coming back for coffee next time! ❤️

【Point】①A cafe located right near Shibuya Station, with an open terrace even though it's underground. ②They don't offer lunch sets, only bread, sweets, and drinks. ③Prices are generally high. Good for killing time or meeting up with someone. 【Reason/Purpose】I was looking for a cafe near Shibuya where I could have a light lunch. I searched for "Shibuya Cafe" on Tabelog based on the number of reviews. 【Location】About a 2-minute walk from Shibuya Station. 【Atmosphere/Seating/Customer Base/Wifi/Toilet/Smoking/Baby Stroller, etc.】The cafe is located in a spacious underground area of the station. Being completely underground, it's convenient as you won't get wet even if it's raining. Both the interior and terrace seating are stylish, making it suitable for those who want to enjoy a fashionable cafe experience in Shibuya. I sat on the terrace, but the chairs were simple and quite unstable, making it difficult to use. Since they don't offer lunch sets, I could only use it for a short break. The location seems to attract a lot of customers. 【Food】(Reason for ordering, taste, portion size, wait time, what others ordered, etc.) ● Vanilla Cream Puff (¥350) ● Iced Cafe Latte (¥600) I was a bit hungry, so I debated on what to order. The rice dishes were expensive, and nothing in particular caught my eye, so I decided to go with a cream puff to satisfy my hunger. They don't offer sets (cream puff and drink combo), so ordering two items would cost over a thousand yen, which isn't very cost-effective. The cream puff had a large hole at the bottom where the cream was filled. The cream was pleasantly sweet and delicious, and I could see why it's a popular menu item. 【Rating at the time of posting】★: 3.51 Reviews: 165 people

[Date] Visited on a weekday at 4:30 pm as a party of one. [Reservation] No reservation was needed, purchased without waiting. The restaurant was about 80% full. It seems to be a popular spot even on weekdays. [Location] Right outside Shibuya Station subway exit. Around exit B7. It could be a good spot for meeting up or adjusting schedules. [Interior] Tables and terrace seating available. The terrace has a high ceiling and a sense of openness. The interior is somewhat minimalist and stylish. You secure your seat first and then order at the counter. [Order] - Scone Sandwich: Passion fruit and mango sauce generously drizzled on top, perfect for the upcoming season. The scone is lightly sweet with a light and crispy texture. The cream is also lightly sweet, making it easy to eat everything at once. The balance is amazing. Delicious. - Cold Brew Coffee: Also light and easy to drink. It's nice that you can choose the size. Thank you for the meal! [Service] The staff were efficient and friendly. [Final Thoughts] The scone sandwich with plenty of cream and sauce is a perfect match!

Vanilla custard cream. It's the most basic one. I was looking forward to it, but... hmm, when I received it, the cream had already melted. It couldn't withstand room temperature, and the cream was oozing out from the back of the cream puff.

Taiyaki Financier and Scones There is a cafe located in the underground area near the East exit. It's more like a cafe, but it has quite an open space. They mainly offer sweets and drinks, but they also have bread. The prices are a bit on the higher end. The Taiyaki Financier is interesting as the Financier is shaped like a taiyaki. The taste is as expected. The scones are quite hard and crispy. The flavor is quite plain, so it's better to eat them with jam or milk tea to bring out the best in them.

I stopped by around 3:00 p.m. on Sunday and found some empty seats, so I decided to make a detour. The place was almost full, it's always crowded here, isn't it? I ordered two types of choux cream that I was curious about. The cream injected from the bottom was overflowing, and although not as firm as a cookie choux, it had a new sweets-like texture. The custard was on the sweeter side, and the hojicha flavor was subtly sweet and delicious.

I used this cafe both on weekdays and weekends around 2pm to 5pm. It's surprisingly close to the station and a hidden gem where you can often find a seat. The sweets and coffee are delicious. The counter facing the station passage has power outlets, so it's great for working on your laptop. It's a busy area but not too noisy, so you can relax and enjoy your time. I often visit alone, but it's a cafe that is convenient for couples, business meetings, friends, and people of all ages and genders.

A stylish cafe that appears right after exiting the Shibuya Station metro ticket gate. The cafe has a lot of seating, so there doesn't seem to be much of a problem finding a seat. In terms of size and price, the cost performance is not the best, but the location and atmosphere are quite nice, making it easy to use. The gratin quiche is delicious and recommended. The scones are on the sweeter side.

Morning coffee (L) 400 yen Victoria Cake 550 yen Total 950 yen The Victoria Cake had a harder texture than expected. Quiche or cream puffs might be safer choices. Located near platform B7 at Shibuya Station, underground East Exit Plaza. It's relatively quiet in the morning.

• Carrot Cake 400 yen • Cappuccino R 600 yen. I was wandering around Shibuya Station. I was craving something sweet and caffeinated, but I thought everywhere would be crowded. Then I stumbled upon UPLIGHT COFFEE. It's located in a great spot, in a corner of the underground passageway connecting Shibuya's train lines. They have counter seats and table seats, and there are outlets available for charging. It's rare to find a cafe where you can charge your devices these days, so I was happy about that. And to top it off, they have Carrot Cake on the menu, which I just had to try. They also offer items like milk bread, gratin chicken quiche, cream puffs, and brownies, so you can enjoy their offerings at any time of day. The baked goods are displayed in a showcase next to the register, tempting you to order one to go with your coffee. On this day, I chose the Carrot Cake without hesitation, and paired it with a Cappuccino. The Carrot Cake was reasonably priced at 400 yen, and the cupcake-sized portion had a nice density to it. The carrot flavor was subtle, with a strong hint of cinnamon adding a nice spice. The texture of the raisins provided a fun contrast. The frosting on top was creamy and sweet, with nuts sprinkled on top. The Cappuccino had a gentle sweetness that paired well with the Carrot Cake. With its excellent location, availability of outlets, and intriguing selection of baked goods, I can see myself becoming a regular here. Thank you for the meal.

Near the East Exit of Shibuya Station on the Toyoko Line, there is a cafe. On weekends in the Shibuya Station area, it is often difficult to find available seats at cafes, but surprisingly, this cafe has a few empty seats. It is a hidden gem, as they say. - Hojicha Cream Puff (380 yen) ☆3.1 The choux pastry is not crispy, lacking the richness of butter, and feels cheap. However, the hojicha aroma from the custard cream is fragrant and this aspect is good. - Cappuccino (600 yen) The thick layer of frothed milk balances the slight bitterness of the espresso, and the gentle sweetness of the milk is distinct, making the cappuccino soothing and delicious without any complaints. - Iced Coffee The refreshing aroma takes the lead, providing a crisp drinking experience. It is simply delicious. I thought it was just a simple cafe utilizing empty space, but surprisingly, it is calm despite the many young people, the cappuccino was delicious, and overall, it was better than expected as a cafe. Most importantly, it was nice to find available seats. Thank you for the meal.

Visited with one other person on a rainy Saturday at 11:40. We ordered and paid first, then were given a buzzer for the food court style seating. We ordered canelé, taiyaki madeleine, and café au lait. The buzzer went off after about 3 minutes. The canelé was delicious. It was nice that the restaurant wasn't crowded.
