コンサートで使用しました。 スタッフさんのイベントにに対する思い入れ、も非常に感じ良いコンサートができました。 明石海峡大橋が一望できるロケーション。 ソフトドリンクからお食事、アルコールまで揃ったラインナップ。 しかもこちらはスタッフの方がベースを弾かれるそうで、機材の揃えが半端ないです。 下手なライブハウスよりも、しっかりとした機材の数々。 また、店主さんがサイフォンで入れてくださるコーヒー、絶品です! 今回はコンサートでの貸切使用をさせていただきましたが、後日また訪れたいお店の一つです。

Beautiful hidden gem, the food was delicious and the decoration was so cute. The staff was really nice too! It's an excellent place to watch the sun set over the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge. The jazz music added to the ambience, genuinely such a nice place.

Lovely atmosphere place to rest and eat at. Not the easiest to find, but worth the hunt. At the top of an apartment block is this real treasure. Cute decor and fine attention to detail creates a refreshing air with a beautiful view over the Akashi Kaikyo (although the day I went was rainy and cloudy but that didn’t detract from the experience). Staff were friendly and the food tasted great. Thoroughly recommended!

I can't believe I just stumbled on this place! Best luck I've had in a while. Beautiful quaint little place and the owners are absolutely amazing. I will be going back at 3:15 for a piano jazz concert. This place is a must see!

天気の良いはとても眺めが良く、明石海峡大橋は淡路島が綺麗に見えます 夜のライトアップした橋もとても綺麗なので、昼・夜どちらも良いですよ この日はガトーショコラとオーシャンカントコトロ(綿菓子が盛り付けてある青いドリンク)を注文 メニュー表にはお店名のカントコトロはピンク色ですが、裏メニューとして注文出来ます よくお店のインスタグラムに投稿されているので、店員さんに尋ねたら作ってくれます 因みに、土日は時々イベントの為貸し切りということも有るので、事前にホームページ等で確認するのがオススメです
