Step through the (bus) door then a waiter (not the guy in the picture below. Hehe), the owner would be waiting over the counter. He’d welcome and lead us to seats upstairs. The owner told us that it took him a year for renovating this bus turning it into a cafe! That must’ve been a lot of work.
Tada. It looks quite nice, huh? Let’s have a seat. I suppose the tables were installed for this cafe but some seats seem to be the original bus seats. Very cool. Some extra interiors match as well.
Shall we get some drinks and sweets? It has food menu as well. Ring the bell whenever you are ready. He’d come over.
Here it comes. These are coffee, melon soda, cheese cake, and a muffin, I think. See this table is like a travel baggage? Hehe, cool.
I recommend to visit this place at night because it feels more relaxing and the car lights (passing) kinda look cool as well.
Lastly
How do you find it? I found the food (sweets and drinks) pretty good and the bus itself is surely cool and entertaining. Please take a visit when you get a chance!
See you around!
One of my favourite spots in Japan. Having tea on the upper deck of an abandoned double-decker at night next to a rice-field and a highway is a very mysterious experience.
