When used in the morning, the quality and menu are disappointing. However, if you go for lunch or later, they have highly recommended menu items like pancakes and cream soda. The iced coffee is good, and the fruit tea is excellent. It's a hidden gem compared to Starbucks, and even on weekends, you can get a seat right away. The seating is spacious, allowing you to relax. I recommend taking advantage of their half-price service for a second cup.

Around 2 PM on Sunday, feeling tired from walking, I took a break and entered the shop. I ordered a strawberry shortcake parfait and a hot coffee (Hikoboshi) set for 980 yen. The coffee cup was similar to Komeda Coffee's, thick and sturdy. The Hikoboshi coffee had a slight bitterness to it, which was good but personally I found it a bit too bitter, so next time I'll try the original blend. The parfait was a generous size, just right to satisfy my hunger without feeling too full. It came with strawberry and vanilla ice cream, along with strawberries, all for 1000 yen, which I found reasonable. It would be even better if there was some kind of jelly-like topping, but considering the price, it was more than enough. Thank you for the meal! ^_^

During the Duck Wars, a coffee-flavored cream is sandwiched in a crispy outer layer that is light and airy inside. The texture is crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. The dough is sweet! The cream has a strong coffee flavor, perfect for accompanying coffee.

I came here after a long time. I came to eat souffle pancakes. Despite it being 3pm, there aren't many customers, probably because of Corona. It's a shame, but it's quiet and calming. I'm happy. Now, I quickly ordered souffle pancakes and my favorite cream soda. The pancakes take 20 minutes, so I usually hesitate to order when I'm short on time, but today I can relax so it's okay. First, the cream soda arrived! The ice cream is surprisingly rich and delicious. The carbonation quenches my dry throat. Delicious. And the pancakes are still delicious. Even though it's been a while, the taste is consistently excellent. Delicious. Delicious. They're light so I don't feel heavy, and I finish them quickly! The cheese on top has a slight tanginess. Sweet and slightly salty. I'm happy. It's nice, isn't it, to have this kind of time. Time to pamper yourself. It was delicious. I want to come back again. Thank you for the meal.

Before the pandemic, it was usually crowded on weekends in the afternoon, but this time, it was empty at 8 p.m. on Sunday. I'm not sure if it's because of the pandemic. It's nice not to have to wait, but it's also worrying when it's this empty. This time, I came to eat pancakes as a dessert after dinner. I felt like a double portion was too much, so my friend and I ordered a double and a single, and each had 1.5 pieces. The surface was lightly crispy, and the sponge was fluffy. As a result, it was a bit moist, with that feeling of taking away moisture from your mouth. It's just right when you pour syrup on it. It also goes well with coffee. It's great that they have branches in Osaka where I was transferred to, and I'm grateful that they have locations nationwide.

Near a udon restaurant, it was around 3 o'clock. I had a cold drink while my wife had a hot one, and we shared a strawberry shaved ice parfait and chocolate pancakes. Our stomachs seemed bottomless as we indulged in snacks right after lunch. We even bought more snacks to take home on our way back! 😂

- Location: 3-13-6 Hulic Kinshicho Station Building 2F, Kotohashi, Sumida-ku, Tokyo - Reason for visit: I felt like it was a waste to just stay home on my day off, so I decided to stop by. - Atmosphere: Once you exit the elevator of the building, you will find the entrance to the restaurant. The interior was very calm and had a relaxing atmosphere. There were plenty of seats available. It is a great place to spend some leisurely time. However, please note that there is no internet connection available (no Wi-Fi), so if you plan on doing any PC work, you may need to use your mobile phone's tethering function. - Food: I ordered the fruit tea. The service was quick and the drink was very good.

During the weekend morning hours, I was debating between going to Komeda Coffee or my favorite Oslo Coffee. I had already eaten breakfast, but was considering having toast. In the end, I decided to go to Hoshino Coffee based on my mood. Their morning set includes coffee for 420 yen with half-size toast and a boiled egg. For 500 yen, you can get a salad and coffee. I opted for the salad since I've been lacking vegetables lately. For an additional 80 yen, the salad comes with bread pieces like croutons. It was just right for me who had already eaten breakfast. Hoshino Coffee not only offers great coffee, but also a wide variety of food options and a pleasant atmosphere that always draws me back. Thank you for the meal.

Seeing the sign of Hoshino Coffee makes me want to go in! It feels like there are a lot of Komeda Coffee shops in my area, so Hoshino Coffee is a rare find. I think it was the first time I ordered a meal there, and the curry was delicious! The pancakes were also great, especially the thick ones. I left feeling very satisfied. The last time I went to Hoshino Coffee was in November last year.

At the south exit of Kinshicho Station, on the second floor of Vid France, I took a little break at Hoshino Coffee (lol). It's like skipping work for a bit (*^_^*) Taking the elevator from the back of the building to the second floor, the shop has a chic atmosphere, or rather, a calm one (｡･ω･｡) The Ice Milk Tea costs ¥420 + tax. The table is limited to a two-hour stay. It feels like a pub! The air conditioning might be too strong, it gets cold if you stay too long. Oh! Maybe it's a measure to prevent people from staying too long, who knows (T_T)＼(^-^ )

Visited a family member in the hospital in June 2020. It was probably my first time going to a hospital other than my own for something other than a visit. Since it ended quickly, I decided to kill time by going to Hoshino Coffee in front of Kinshicho Station. I was originally just planning to have coffee, but they were still serving breakfast, so I ordered the ham and cheese toast breakfast set. First, they brought out the iced coffee. Then came the toast. The bread was soft and fluffy. I thought there could have been more ham, but it had ham, cheese, onions, and parsley on top. Rating at the time of posting: 3.08

I have visited this place a few times. It is located inside a building in front of the station, so I often use it to pass the time before meeting someone. The atmosphere is nice with slightly dim lighting at night, which is calming. On this day, I had a fruit tea. My friend had it iced, while I had it hot. It was not too sweet, with just the right amount of sweetness, and it looked stylish and enjoyable both in appearance and taste. The staff at this store are polite and it is a cozy place to be in.

I love having breakfast, and I always try to go to new places. However, among the places I've revisited, I find the breakfast at Hoshino Coffee to be of high quality. This time, I didn't go for the breakfast set, but instead ordered a big coffee with toast on the side. I later found out they have a menu item called Egg Slatt that is popular in Los Angeles. I didn't know about Egg Slatt before, but I'll try it next time. I enjoyed a delicious and relaxing time once again. Thank you for the meal.

In front of Kinshicho Station is Hoshino Coffee Shop. It has a convenient location for meeting up. Depending on the timing, it can get quite crowded. The interior is chic and has a calm atmosphere, reminiscent of a classic coffee shop. The age range of customers is diverse, with even elderly people feeling comfortable in the space. I ordered an iced coffee and pancakes. The iced coffee was served in a unique cup and was very cold. The taste was average. The pancakes were not the fluffy type that is currently popular, but rather a classic type with a crispy exterior. I personally prefer this style over the fluffy ones. While there are other coffee shops in this price range with better-tasting coffee, Hoshino Coffee Shop offers a relaxing atmosphere and a chic vibe. Its prime location adds to its appeal, making it a valuable option depending on how you use it.

Located right near the south exit of Kinshicho Station, I visited here. "Hoshino Coffee Kinshicho Store" is a popular spot in the city, similar to brands like Doutor and YoMeEn (Yoshimura Food Holdings). Unlike Doutor, the interior here has a chic and antique feel, more like a coffee shop than a cafe, with spacious tables for a relaxed atmosphere. The menu is extensive, offering pasta, beef stew, and more, resembling a Western-style restaurant. In the summer, they serve shaved ice, sweets, and pancakes. The prices are a bit on the higher side. It's a stylish coffee shop perfect for those who want to relax and unwind. Thank you for the meal.

I think one of the reasons people enter cafes is to "kill time." I also went in with that kind of feeling. It was on the 2nd floor of a food building and I thought, "It's in a place like this?" But when I got off the elevator, it was a lovely atmosphere and quite crowded! I was quite surprised. The rich and delicious iced coffee was good, and I felt like I had found a nice place.

On the way back from a little drinking session, I decided to have some coffee to sober up. It had been a while since my last visit. Looking at the menu, I noticed they had added more types of coffee. I ordered the Orihime coffee and also added a Hokkaido roll cake. Both the coffee and cake were delicious, and I was pleased that the cake wasn't too sweet. Thank you for the meal.

If you're unsure where to go for breakfast, I recommend this place. The prices are reasonable and it's spacious with no crowds. There are plenty of seats and you can relax and enjoy your meal. The big toast and hot coffee are very appealing. Thank you for the meal. I will definitely visit again.

<Recommended Points> Visited the restaurant around 2 PM on a Saturday. Due to the rain, had to wait for about 20 minutes before being seated. [Deluxe Mont Blanc] for 550 yen - A regular Mont Blanc with sponge cake, whipped cream, chestnut paste, and Mont Blanc cream. The cake felt dry, perhaps due to being stored in the refrigerator at the counter. [Fruit Tea] for 720 yen (570 yen as a set) - A refreshing fruit tea with a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity. The addition of fresh fruits prevents it from becoming too monotonous. Thank you for reading.

During summer vacation, I still had a review left. I was curious about the Gapao Rice, so my daughter and I used it for lunch. We ordered the Gapao Rice (880 yen) and the Kids Set (500 yen). The Gapao Rice was quite salty and not that great. Perhaps this type of dish is not something you should order here. It also seemed a bit expensive at 880 yen for just the dish without any drinks or salad included. For kids' menu, there was the Kids Set and also the Junior Set recommended for elementary school children and above.
