01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Even if the morning has slipped by, hot coffee and freshly toasted bread are still waiting here. One of the signature staples at on the Corner is its morning set, served throughout the entire day. Pairing a house blend or iced coffee with crisp buttered toast and a boiled egg, this simple combination lets you settle into a classic Japanese cafe breakfast whenever you happen to visit.

For a heartier bite, light fare such as ham and cheese toast, cheese toast, and pizza are also on hand. During afternoon tea hours, the cake set provides an enticing alternative, matching homemade cake with either a hot blend or iced coffee. The broader drink selection covers single-origin brews like Mandheling, Kilimanjaro, and Brazil, along with distinctive Calpis creations styled under names like Black, Rose, and Blue.

Inside, warm wood tones create a calm environment with tables and counter seats, supplemented by an open-air terrace. Whether you are looking to read alone in quiet comfort or pausing for a breather mid-walk, it is an easygoing spot that fits right into the day.
