Visit the restaurant
We arrived at the restaurant at 8:30 on a Saturday morning under a piercing blue sky in early summer. It was fairly quiet and we were able to enter the restaurant with ease. There was no line after that, and we were able to spend a quiet and relaxing time until we left the restaurant. This elegant atmosphere is quite nice.
The restaurant has about 80 seats, including smoking and terrace seats, and is located less than 3 minutes from Takadanobaba Station, yet offers a large space.
Menu
This is the menu that was offered on the day of the event.

The above three menu items come with a salad for an additional 50 yen.
- Toast with salad: 550 yen
The following drinks are available as part of the set menu: Medium size for 50 yen extra, Large size for 100 yen extra.

Actual meal
The menu items eaten that day were as follows
- Hot dog set: 600 yen (including tax)
- Hot dog
- Salad
- Iced tea (Medium)
They make the food to order. We took our number tags, moved to our seats, and waited to be called.
- Hot dog
- The taste is very ordinary hotdog. However, it looks very glamorous somehow. It may be because the bread is wider and the way they put ketchup/mustard on it is stylish.
- Salad
- A three-dimensionally arranged green salad. The taste and ingredients are very ordinary, yet it has a luxurious feel to it.
- Iced tea (Medium)
- An orthodox Earl Grey iced tea. It is strange that I feel a sudden urge to drink it when summer approaches.
Reviews
Comments
The taste itself was a typical coffee chain morning menu. However, the elaborate presentation and the spaciousness of the restaurant made me feel a strange sense of luxury and satisfaction.
This time, I opted for a regular hot dog, aiming for the basics, but I could have gone for a “prosciutto cream cheese dog” for a more upscale experience.
The price is reasonable at 600 yen, the interior is quiet and comfortable, and it is definitely a hole-in-the-wall.
If it were closer to my house, I might go there.
Note
This restaurant is affiliated with Cafe Renoir. The official Instagram/X (Twitter) was linked to the entire Café Renoir.
It is interesting to note that the Instagram location has a number of somewhat stylish photos that are quite different from the Café Renoir image.
