What customers say
Quoted verbatim from the shop's Google listing. The Japanese is the review as written; the English is our translation.
「三宮で喫煙が出来る喫茶店を探して入店。」
I came in looking for a coffee shop in Sannomiya where you can smoke.
「愛煙家の方も多いが換気よくタバコ吸わない私でも快適空間。」
Plenty of smokers, but the ventilation is good — comfortable even for me, and I don't smoke.
「JR三ノ宮駅すぐの喫茶店。喫煙可。おじさまが一人で切り盛りされています。」
A coffee shop right by JR Sannomiya. Smoking allowed. An older gentleman runs it single-handed.
