The building itself is interesting and quite old, with the possibility of hosting music or events at times. The vegan menu options are limited to a couple of curry dishes. The food was decent but a bit bland, nothing extraordinary that would make me want to return. The prices are very affordable, around ¥600. It's a convenient choice for a quick and cheap meal in Nakazakicho.

I would go there more for the atmosphere. It is nice to hang out there, take a break, read a book. Price is 750-1000 yen. Unfortunately, there is a one coin curry at lunch time (for 500 yen) but it is only for the meat-eaters. Would be nice if they can veganize this option.
