Cafe Banchamu, a dessert drink that has been loved since the cafe first opened, is a sweet coffee made with two layers of coffee and fresh cream. The milk flavor spreads first, followed by the coffee flavor. Please enjoy it as is without using a straw. In addition, we are proud of our specialty coffee, which is brewed one cup at a time in a French press after ordering. We use five types of beans, including Brazilian and Mandheling, and you can enjoy the press at your seat.

The signature dish from the restaurant's founding, "Cheese Grilled Bread Curry," is a masterpiece that combines sweet, traditional, mild beef curry with melted cheese and moist bread. The crispy bread and curry create an exquisite harmony. In addition, the "Dorayaki-style Soft Serve Pancake," a pancake with red bean paste sandwiched between it like a dorayaki, is a playful dish. A wide variety of other main dishes and desserts are also available.

Founded in 1977, "Banchamu" was named after the Arabic word "ban," which means "coffee beans," with the hope that customers would talk about their dreams while enjoying brewed coffee (tea). The shop has been loved by locals for 50 years, and while the wall sculptures remain the same, the interior has been completely renovated, providing the same relaxing space. During morning hours from 7:30 to 11:00, a choice of toast is included with all drinks.
