About this place
The café au lait pudding is a little different from what its name might suggest: it is not simply a coffee-flavoured pudding. One diner described milk pudding served with coffee powder and red beans at the bottom. The gentle sweetness, coffee aroma and red beans make for an unexpected combination. Listed on the menu as “Melting Café au Lait Pudding”, it is available on its own or as part of a set. If the pudding is what brings you in, consider choosing a drink to enjoy with it in the café.
Coffee options range from the easy-going coffee of the day to hand-dripped coffee made with beans currently on sale. There are blends as well as single-origin choices, so you can pick a cup to suit the pudding. One diner described the coffee jelly with vanilla ice cream as not too sweet. It has appeared as a seasonal item, so if it is available on the day, it offers a coffee dessert with a different character from the pudding.
Some sets include coffee and a take-home item, making it easy to browse the beans and coffee equipment for sale after enjoying something sweet in the café. The seating area is small, with limited seats, and suits a quiet pause over a cup of coffee and dessert.
