I visited on a Saturday night. This stylish cafe stays open late, unlike many others, so you can visit even after dinner. The atmosphere was great and the coffee was delicious. I would love to go again.

Located a 4-5 minute walk from Kuramae, this café is also within walking distance from Asakusabashi and Shin-Okachimachi. It is a new café that opened this year. I visited on a Sunday evening and found the place to be full, with a waitlist of 2 groups. There were no specific instructions written down, so you just wait in line. When it's your turn to order, they will let you know. The staff were nice, but I wish they had given a bit more information. The interior of the café features arch-shaped sofa-like chairs, which are the motif of the place, as well as regular seating towards the back. Despite the appearance, there were actually quite a few seats available. I was able to find a bench on the left side of the entrance and sat down. I had an oat latte and a cheese tart. The cheese tart had a creamy and tangy cream cheese filling with a crispy crust, and it was delicious. Overall, it was a good experience, although I couldn't fully appreciate the curved design.

It was located a little away from Asakusabashi Station! The interior of the shop is stylish and you can sit wherever you like ☺️ The coffee is a bit bitter, but it was a perfect combination with the sweetness of the cake. The atmosphere inside the shop gives off a vibe of having many female customers. I think it's recommended for a date as well.

I visited ARC in Kuramae, which opened on May 10th this year. I ordered an Oat Latte (650 yen) and a Cheese Tart (600 yen). When I arrived at the shop on a weekday in August around 10:30 am, there was only one customer already there. It was a rare sight as ARC is usually always full whenever I visit. The atmosphere was calm and I could enjoy my coffee and music peacefully. I was relieved to find the Cheese Tart I wanted since I heard they sometimes run out. The tart had a refreshing creamy filling with a hint of acidity, perfect for a hot summer day. The crispy tart base was also delicious. I also ordered an Oat Latte, which was gentle on the stomach and my body enjoyed it. The shop's interior was stylish with its unique arch-shaped design, and the music added to the pleasant atmosphere. Overall, it was a delightful experience.

A mellow café bar near Torikoshi Shrine in Kuramae. I was captivated by the large speakers on the record player and the curvy velvet-like couch. This café is totally my style. They have a FAEMA espresso machine and you can also enjoy natural wine from Japan. Besides the coffee menu, they also offer carrot cake and other treats. It's a small but cozy place.

A stylish cafe that opened in May. The interior is dimly lit with calming music playing, creating a nice atmosphere. What I ordered this time was Carrot Cake, Cheese Egg Toast, Latte, and Rooibos Tea. The Carrot Cake had a lot of cinnamon on top, so be careful when eating it. The cake itself had a firm texture with walnuts on top, making it a simple Carrot Cake. It may not be spicy enough for those who like spices. The Latte was a strong espresso-based latte with a good amount of milk and a solid espresso flavor. The Cheese Egg Toast was really delicious and I recommend it. It may look small, but it's quite filling and has a slightly junky taste that makes you want more. They also have Cheese Tart and Avocado Toast. The seating is limited, so there may be a wait. Each seat is spacious and comfortable. The table I used this time was small, so I ended up placing it on the bench I was sitting on. It might fit if you're just having a drink. There were mostly friends coming together, not many solo customers. The place is calm, so it might be nice to use it alone.

When I peeked into ARC, I noticed they still had cheese tarts that I hadn't tried yet, so I decided to go in. I ordered a café au lait for my drink. There was a bit of confusion when I ordered the cheese tart, as they mentioned carrot cake along with the cheese tart. Today, the Altec speakers were producing great sound. I ended up getting a cheese tart and, for some reason, an iced latte. I had thought café au lait was hot, but I guess they assumed no one would order a hot drink this time of year. Oh well, I didn't point it out and just went ahead and drank the iced latte. The cheese tart had a delicious tart crust and the flavor was quite traditional, but the cream was high-quality and delicious.

I arrived at 1 pm and the place was full, by 2 pm there was a line. It's a popular place! Maybe because it was a Saturday! Both the latte and the tart were incredibly delicious and the atmosphere was very stylish. The inside of the shop is quite dark, only the seats by the window are bright.

I went to the restaurant specifically for the cheese tart and cream puffs. It was my first time there, so I asked which desserts they had. They told me they only had carrot cake at that time, so I ordered that. However, shortly after, the cheese tart and cream puffs were ready. I was really disappointed because I really wanted to try those two. If they were going to come out soon, I wish they had waited a little longer so I could have had the desserts I wanted.

The cheese tart at this stylish cafe next to Torikoshi Shrine is a beautiful creation with cheese rippling on top of a tart disk. The cream cheese has a gentle milky texture with a soft and bubbly feel, contrasting nicely with the firm tart crust that releases a fragrant powder as you bite into it. It paired well with the powdery Americano ice cream. The total cost for the cheese tart and Americano was 1210 yen per person. The cafe, opened in May 2023, is owned by Hiroki Sarumaru, offering a retro-chic atmosphere with cow-patterned counters and banana-shaped sofas. The cafe is open from morning till night, providing a relaxing environment to enjoy music from analog records.

I visited a cafe that is already very popular despite being newly opened, based on information from my younger brother. The cafe has a stylish atmosphere, with unique curved sofas that look very comfortable. They also serve sandwiches, although I was unsure when ordering. I ended up getting a carrot cake and an iced cafe latte. The overall vibe is quite American. It's a relaxed atmosphere and a new addition to the Kuramae area.

Stylish and fashionable cafe☕️ located near Torikoshi Shrine⛩️ I went in the morning on a weekday, so there were empty seats, but customers kept coming in. The interior is small but sophisticated, with records playing in the background for a relaxed atmosphere. I was happy to find the carrot cake I wanted to eat, making me happy since the morning❣️

About a 10-minute walk from Kuramae, this cafe is tucked away in a narrow alley. While the exterior may not stand out, the interior design is unique. The wall under the counter is white with black spots, reminiscent of a cow pattern. Surrounding the counter are bench-like seats scattered about. When I arrived, the place was full so I had to wait on one of the bench seats without a table. Luckily, a table opened up soon after. On this day, I had the following items: 1. Oat Latte for 650 yen - When I asked for a cafe latte, the staff mentioned they also have oat milk. I decided to try the oat latte, and surprisingly, it was the same price. Very fair. 2. Cream Puff for 350 yen - Filled generously with custard, it had a substantial weight to it. Not too sweet and very delicious. It's a quiet and nice space. I would like to visit again.

Next to the Torikoshi Shrine in Kuramae, a cafe has opened. They mainly serve espresso-based drinks and baked goods. The central counter, with a cow or seaweed pattern, is surrounded by seating. The impressive counter has striking curves. Looking around the store, you'll notice arches everywhere - on the ceiling, sofas, chairs, walls - all featuring curves that make it fun to explore. I ordered a hot cappuccino while waiting for a seat. The cinnamon on top was generous, adding a spicy touch to the rich aroma. The espresso was strong, satisfying in just one cup. The carrot cake caught my eye, so I added that as well. The cappuccino was priced at 660 yen, while I forgot the price of the carrot cake. The cappuccino had a generous sprinkle of cinnamon, creating a rich aroma with a hint of spice. The espresso was quite strong, providing a high level of satisfaction in one cup. The carrot cake had a moist texture with a refreshing frosting. Cinnamon was generously sprinkled on top, making it easy to eat with a mild flavor that would appeal to many. I should have chosen a different drink to go with the carrot cake. Although the cafe had just opened, it was already bustling with customers, even on a weekday afternoon with some people waiting. Customers of all ages, including babies and dogs, were welcomed, creating a lively atmosphere. The audio equipment was impressive, with deep bass resonating, and the space exuded a stylish atmosphere. The staff's conversation skills seemed to encourage interaction among customers, even mentioning my stuffed animal, which added to the warm and memorable customer service experience. This cafe is likely to further enliven the Kuramae area.

After finishing lunch and before heading home, I stopped by ARC and the staff said they didn't have any tarts but they did have carrot cake and cream puffs. I ordered a cream puff (385 yen) and a cafe latte (660 yen). The interior seating was full, so I sat on a bench by the counter. There was a JBL monaural speaker placed next to Altec, with a speaker I had never seen before in between them. The cream puff had a cookie-like crust and was delicious. As usual, the coffee cup without a handle was hot and difficult to drink from.

A wonderful cafe has opened in Kuramae. It's already so popular that there's a line forming. Inside, you'll find a cozy, slightly dim space with pleasant music playing. It's so comfortable that you might end up staying for a while. I ordered the Lemon Tart for ¥600 (excluding tax), Cream Puff for ¥350, Cappuccino for ¥600, and Iced Latte for ¥600. The Lemon Tart had a deep baked tart crust with almond cream, lemon curd, and meringue on top. It had a subtle lemon flavor, but the meringue may have overshadowed it. The Cream Puff had a crispy cookie dough on top of choux pastry, filled generously with simple custard cream. The Cappuccino had a strong espresso flavor. The staff were friendly, and I would love to visit again.

At the arccoffee in Kuramae, I had carrot cake and a latte. The carrot cake had a slit on the side and the filling was sandwiched inside. The carrots were shredded and there was a generous amount of cinnamon sprinkled on top. The cream had a hint of lemon, making it sweet and sour. The latte was served full to the brim. The aroma of freshly baked pastries filled the cozy cafe as the oven was in operation. I didn't know where the lovely restroom I had heard about was, so I had to ask. It turned out to be located underground and had a slightly retro vibe.

After returning home from Ishihara Theater and finding that my family had not yet arrived, I decided to stop by ARC. When I asked if they had any cake, they said they had freshly made cheese tart, so I ordered the cheese tart (660 yen) and a cafe latte (660 yen). The tart crust was delicious and the cake itself was very tasty. Today, the sound was not coming from the Altec speakers as usual, but from a JBL full-range monaural speaker. The amp being used was also different, playing audio from a smartphone.

Newly opened cafe ARC in the competitive area of Kuramae, operating from early morning to late at night! The interior is lovely, with a barista counter featuring a cute cow-pattern design. The seats by the entrance receive natural light and have banana cushions. The back area has a chic and calming atmosphere like a hotel lounge, with records and ambient lighting creating a fantastic space for a night cafe experience. I ordered the cheese tart, lemon tart, and cream puff, and they were all delicious! It was a cozy and delightful cafe to visit. #TokyoCafe #TokyoGourmet #TokyoSweets #TokyoCafeHopping #CafeHopping

I went to a cafe that opened on 5/10 and the space was absolutely lovely! It had a cute cow pattern and the music playing from the speakers created a great atmosphere. The avocado toast had a simple seasoning that paired well with the bitter cafe latte. The two layers of latte were beautiful and looked great from any angle in photos. I'm curious about the cheese tart, so I want to visit again for dessert next time! It's great that they are open late, so I can also use it as a night cafe.
