I was staying in shinjuku and researching breakfast joints since shockingly that area doesn’t have many western cafes in comparison to Shibuya. Through my research, this place caught my eye with the high reviews and cute environment. I specifically wanted an açai bowl and it did not disappoint. I also ordered the Dutch baby and charcoal latte and it was phenomenal. Service was great and helpful. Highly recommend this spot!

This place is a hidden gem in tourist-packed Omotesando. Staffs were very nice , cozy and calm interior, and they have cool counter bar. Their açaí bowl and fig salad were epic. And French toast and other butter open toasts were exquisite. It was my best brunch in Tokyo.

Food was excellent as brunch and their French toast, bacon and egg toast and the breakfast plate is a must order. We visited on two occasions as it was so good and there was line for the weekend - it will be harder to get in with groups of 3 or more. We found the cafe more quiet on weekdays. Staff were also very friendly and patient. Overall a very trendy, beautiful interior with delicious food and drinks

Me and my husband had a late breakfast at i2 cafe this afternoon, and it was such an amazing experience. From the outside, the café is surrounded by beautiful trees that make it feel like a hidden little oasis. Inside, the décor is warm and stylish, and the soft background music adds just the right touch to the relaxing vibes. We ordered the banana pancake with nuts and the French toast..both were really good and beautifully served. The flavors were spot on and matched the cozy atmosphere perfectly. The staff were incredibly friendly especially Iwamoto yudai, which made the whole visit even more enjoyable. This is the kind of place you’ll want to return to again and again, whether it’s for breakfast or just to enjoy the wonderful ambiance.

Nice and cosy place with amazing and welcoming staff. We ordered a full size Acai bowl and a Teriyaki-salsiccia dutch slow cooked pancake. I never tried such pankace before and the taste and texture of it was brilliant. The price of the food was bit over average but when comparing what you get, it was easily worth it, especially when considering the general price level in Shibuya. I would definitely recommend for an interesting mix of Asian/European brunch.

Drinkable fluffy French toast Came to this cafe hidden in the omotesando area. Writing this after coming a second time in such a short period They got Dutch baby and French toast. Def go for the French toast You get 3 pieces super soft that do not need syrup. I’m sure a lot of sugar is used. I forgot to even use any syrup the second time I came Love the vibe here. Feels like a super high end spot without being overpriced Super friendly staff too The only slight weird thing? This shop makes you order up in front before sitting like a standard cafe. It totally feels off from the vibe otherwise Counter seating available. One drink order required. Water self service available Highly recommend. Will be back when they got other seasonal offerings

Tucked away down a side alley this cafe is a gem - it’s lush garden front and decor inside make for a cool and welcoming space away from the streets. The food is fresh and delicious. Ample seating it can accommodate small groups - good for tourists traveling together. Limited menu but you don’t need more - the breakfast set or fruit or salad bowls are all delicious! Good coffee if looking for more of an espresso style.
