Before you head over
Helpful tips on wait times, daily specials, and seating to help you make the most of your visit.
Arrive Early or Check In Digitally
The cafe gets quite busy on Friday mornings and weekends; arrive early and check in via the entrance kiosk to secure your spot or grab takeout if dining in has a long wait.
Order Quiches and Onigiri Promptly
Popular savoury onigiri flavours and specialty quiches like truffle or okonomiyaki sell out quickly, so place your food orders early in the morning.
Head for the Outdoor Garden with Pets or Prams
If you are bringing a dog or visiting with a pram, plan to sit outside, where there is a Japanese-style garden and semi-undercover outdoor seating.
