A lovely book café with a quiet but atmospheric feeling. The café has a good collection of books so you can just pick something up and start reading. A good selection of teas. The New York Cheesecake was very good! **Cards Accepted** 静かだが雰囲気のある素敵なブックカフェ。 本のコレクションが豊富なので、何か手に取って読み始めることができる。 紅茶の種類も豊富。 ニューヨークチーズケーキがとても美味しかった! **カード可**

『マンガ喫茶の最上位互換』とは『古本喫茶』ですので悪しからず(笑) さて、こちらは古本と言っても、販売している古本を読める喫茶店になります。喫茶店というよりも、落ち着いたカフェで、美味しいベーグルやデザート、珈琲、紅茶がメイン。 写真の通り店内は広々しています。図書館のように静かなので、のんびり、ゆっくり、まったりと寛げます。 更に、食べ歩き好きなnobutaとしては、コ・ス・パがとても良いという点を宣伝したいっすね(笑) メニューは写真の通り。 今回は、最初の写真のデザートプレートを注文したんです。 ケーキ2種類、アイス2種類が付いて 650円 ですよ~素晴らしい 飲み物は、氷もコーヒーの ダブルカフェオレ 600円 を注文。妻は セーデルブレンド 550円 を注文してました。 デザートとドリンクで90分くらいノンビリと過ごしましたよ。読み物が色々とあるので、もっとノンビリしたかったんですけど、別の予定があったので離脱しちゃいました。 とても、良いカフェでした。御馳走様でした

Nice cafe for a quiet lunch. You can choose soy milk over regular milk for your cafe drinks. Sometimes they also have vegetables for sale, and lots of interesting books.
