Its predecessor, smart lunch, was founded in 1932. it is a famous coffee shop that continues to be loved as one of kyoto's leading coffee shops. time flows slowly inside the chic interior, surrounded by classical furnishings. many customers visit for the coffee, which has been passed down since the shop's founding, as well as for the cafe menu items such as pancakes and french toast. we also recommend smart lunch, which is only available at lunchtime on the second floor, which has the atmosphere of a long-established western restaurant.
