01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Standing directly adjacent to a neighborhood greengrocer, cafe trefle makes natural use of that proximity across a menu centered on fresh fruit and seasonal vegetables. For those with a sweet tooth, options range from sandwiches layered with ripe seasonal fruit to French toast served alongside custard pudding. Between golden, fragrant French toast topped with fresh fruit and a savory version blanketed in melted cheese, the kitchen covers everything from a leisurely afternoon sweet to a satisfying light meal.

Midday visitors seeking a heartier meal gravitate toward the daily teishoku sets, which include steamed rice, miso soup, and small side dishes. Familiar staples such as ginger pork, chicken karaage, fried fish, and tonkatsu anchor the rotation, paired with a comforting dashi-rich miso soup. The Western-style lineup is equally well represented, featuring vegetable curry, Japanese-style vegetable pasta made with fresh produce from next door, and classic ketchup-based Neapolitan spaghetti, each accompanied by a fresh salad.

The beverage selection reflects the shop's market ties, featuring fresh smoothies and cold-pressed juices alongside crisp, refreshing cold-brew iced coffee. Service is casual and self-paced: guests order and pay in advance at the counter before dishes are brought out to the tables. On-site parking, dedicated kids' plates, and child seats make the space just as welcoming for family meals and grocery runs as it is for a solo break.
