I haven’t even left yet and I know I’m coming back. The black sesame mochi is incredible. It’s the smoothest creamiest mochi filling I’ve ever experienced. It’s like a cream puff filling with a mochi outside. Not too sweet with a great black sesame flavor. The cafe is adorable and beautifully designed and decorated. I love the mix of light colors, Japanese artwork and artfully displayed Japanese liquor bottles (yes, they serve cocktails).

Love the crepe cakes here! They are super soft and light and not overtly sweet. I have tried the pistachio crepe cake which was really tasty. The seat-in overall is small and pleasant too.

Visited London and ordered from here frequently during our stay. Deserts, dirty caramel bubble tea, food and hot flavored tea were all very delicious. Service was outstanding. The helpful lady who was are server most of the days we went was so wonderful, kind and made the most delicious strawberry rose tea I ever had. Beautiful environment, tasty deserts, drinks and food, fantastic service.

Popped in for an afternoon sweet treat as the reviews were so high here. Lovely modern and clean cafe, lots of cute cakes & desserts. Free Wi-Fi, and not far from tube station. However it was really expensive, £7.20 for one slice of the matcha crepe cake. It tasted ok, it wasn’t phenomenal or something I would crave to taste again.

Not worth the hype... I've heard many people talk about the jiggly cheese cake so I had to check it out. Yes, it's an interesting texture, but it lacks flavour for my taste. There are two tables outside, which is nice on a sunny day. However, service is quite slow. Top tip - if you do try it, do takeaway and get a coffee somewhere else, my espresso was unamusing.

A quirky little cafe with Japanese-inspired desserts. Cakes are pretty good. Service and operation are so so. It’s tiny - good luck finding seats. The menu is a bit confusing - there is a dozen mille crêpes to choose from and a few cheesecakes that look very similar to each other. As for drinks, they don’t have drink menu anywhere obvious. You have to ask what they have. Matcha mill crepe was good. Black sesame one was a bit dense.

Very nice patisserie, I really liked the matcha tiramisu and the strawberry mochi, not so much the pistachio, which was a bit overwhelming. I guess I need to get used to the taste. Very pleasant place.

we bought a box of mooncake but it does not match their online description. I asked them and they replied because the taro mooncake is sold out. It is ridiculous because it is impossible when a shop sell a standardized product but the amount is not same. I think they discriminated me because I am not local so that's why they take one of the mooncakes without any notifications. they do not take any further actions to solve this issue which is extremely not professional.
