草津駅徒歩1分以内の好立地、アメリカのホワイトハウスをイメージしたかのような白い外観の可愛らしい喫茶店 モーニングは、 パンケーキやサンドイッチなどが選べる7種類のセットが(>ω<) 頂いた【Cモーニング】(650円)は、 自家製タマゴサラダを乗せて焼いたエッグトースト、ハムサラダ、ドリンク付き 。 美味しいコーヒーが飲めて、 Wi−Fiも使えて、 雑誌や新聞も読めて、 朝からホッこり出来ますね。 常連さんが多く、 「いつもの」 で通じているアットホーム過ぎる空間でした。

I like their mustard egg toast so much. It tastes super good. Their blend coffee also very strong. The shop has the old American country house and has very good music to play. Overall i enjoy sipping coffee here.

Spacious, charming, and affordable cafe. The wooden table, brick accents, historic decorations, and large windows create a great atmosphere. There’s lots of seats, and you can sit anywhere you like. The menu is pretty big, and has meals, snacks, and sweets. I’ve been there twice and loved it both times! Best cafe near Kusatsu Station.

コロナをの嵐に見舞われたにも関わらず、味に手抜きはありません。お手製のプリンのお味もレトロで、胸を張れる一品です。 限定10食のランチは、量が要る若い人にも充分でしょう。 駅に近い人気店ですので、予約をした方がいいでしょう。 駐車場は店と同じビルにあり、入り口は店舗玄関の右隣りです。 食事をすれば、二時間無料です。

口コミで身構えてたけどポニテの大人の女性店員さんも若い女性も接客良いし 卵も美味しいし問題なし でもホットケーキはインスタント感がある↓↓ 手作りだと嬉しいし、その場で手作りなら1枚でポタージュも無しで良いのにーと思った

平日火曜8:30入店 店は草津駅西口ロータリーそば 店内は店員さん2名のみ 店から眺める外の景色は人の歩く姿のみ インテリアや、照明が西洋風で豪華でリッチな気分にさせてくれる(*^^*) 注文; 『スクランブルエッグモーニング』¥890 厚切りくちどけもち粉トースト・サラダ スクランプルエッグ・ホットコーヒー 分厚くたっぷりバターが載ったトーストは 食べ応えバッチリでしたよ 勿論、美味しかったです Visited on a weekday Tuesday at 8:30 AM The café is located near the rotary at the west exit of Kusatsu Station. Inside, there were only two staff members. The view from the shop shows nothing but people walking by. The interior and lighting have a Western-style elegance that makes you feel luxurious and pampered (^^) Order: “Scrambled Egg Morning” – ¥890 Thick, melt-in-your-mouth rice flour toast ・ Salad Scrambled eggs ・ Hot coffee The thick toast generously topped with butter was super satisfying And of course, it was delicious
