The venue was pretty and well decorated. It felt welcoming and peaceful. I didn't like the low seats as I could fit my legs under the table, so it was a bit uncomfortable.

Service was charming and helpful.

The soy latte wasn't the best as it felt quite weak.

The food was decent without it being exceptional (the fries were definitely too oily). The portions were slightly on the small side. It was an OK experience overall.

It's a decent pub. The venue is quite pretty.

Service-wise, I found it average.

Price-wise, the drinks were definitely on the expensive side.

Also, it lacked sufficient seating around the bar. The spacing on either side of the bar is quite odd, so there aren't a lot of tables and seats.

I had the almond-milk latte which was tasty and of good strength. I appreciated that they had non-dairy-milk options (oat and almond milks).

The service was competent and friendly. I was very happy.

The café is pretty and has a relaxed vibe about it, so I felt comfortable there and wasn't pushed to leave when I finished my drink. I appreciated that.

We had lunch there. I had the vegan meal (I appreciated they had one as not every restaurant offers non-meat options), and my colleagues had the jerk chicken and the fish. All of them were flavourful and well presented. They were a bit spicy, too, as expected from Carribean cuisine. Quanity-wise, they could be a bit larger.

The restaurant is pretty (I liked the woodwork) and not too large (I counted five tables for a bit less than 20 people in total). Overall, I liked the venue. My only complaints are that it can get a bit smelly from the kitchen and pretty hot (I presume because of the glass windows).

Price-wise, it was reasonably priced for lunch in the area at just under JPY1,000 for the vegan and jerk-chicken meals and around JPY1,500 for the fish meal.

The service was polite and friendly as expected.
