JAPAN RAIL CAFE TOKYO

Chiyoda Tokyo train interior design Japan

I like how they organized, very nice atmosphere, though it's kinda hot in the shop. Drinks and food are little expensive. They are popular for Matcha.

Cozy place, we spend for two hours. I ordered Japanese green tea that was tasty much better than OTC products.

The woman spoke angrily, shouting. and she was from another side. not even her partner who was really attending me could speak. I just went there to buy the ticket. So I just prefer to buy it in different place.

The place is nice, has a good choice of non-conventional beers. The price is understandable to the location.

Drink choices are very stark for such a location but inside is beautiful with two boots arranged for a japanese experience. And the usage of it is ?.

Food options are limited. There are no washroom facilities. I ordered a coffee and gelato. They had two kinds: matcha and hojicha. I wanted to try both. She said it costs extra to have a scoup of each instead of two scoups of the same. I agreed. Then I ordered a coffee. She charged me for a coffee. I realised she, for some reason, thought I didn't want the gelato any longer. I reminded her. She added it. I gave her money. Her co-worker showed her she charged the wrong amount. It was 50 yen too much. She changed it. I knew it would be more, for absolutely no reason, but it was 100 yen more to have two flavours instead of one. It's just a money making gimmick. The gelato was ok. Both flavours were strong, but they were slightly artificial tasting. Get some from the convenience store if you want a delicious matcha ice-cream like treat. Immediately after I ordered I asked where the toilet was. I was directed to go back outside, go down and into the metro station mall area, and that's it. No more directions. I did my best. It took 5 minutes to find one it and I got lost on the way back. It was very inconvenient. When I returned, they gave me a sticky tray and poured a fresh coffee. I asked for some milk. She pointed at the little plastic things of artificial cream. I didn't want that. I asked again for some milk. Then she asked if I wanted a cafe au lait. No, I told her. I don't want a cafe au lait. I want some milk for my coffee and I don't want artificial cream. She pointed at the cream. A standard cafe like Starbucks will give you milk for your coffee when asked. He manner was a little bit dismissive while dealing with me. The coffee was okay. It was from an instant machine. So, it was nothing special-especially with that articifial creamer.

A new cafe at the entrance of the Yaesu central entrance. Very spread out seating, like the high ceilings. Can buy a few bentos here. Nice selection of sake too. But drinks are quite expensive, ¥500 for a hot cup of tea. Nice but would not be my first choice cafe at Tokyo station
