Review of "Fleur

Let's look at some of the reviews of "Fleur."

The atmosphere is nice because it is located along the Hankyu line, so you can see the chic colored trains from the windows. The hall staff was friendly and helpful, and although it was my first visit, it was a very relaxing time. The omakase set meal showed attention not only to the main dish but also to the side dishes. The fried dregs on the thickly simmered Chinese cabbage accented the soft cabbage and gave it a delightful texture, and the vinegared wakame and squid had a nice salty sweetness that was more than just a palate cleanser.

A coffee shop with a retro atmosphere loved by locals. The interior is also stylish. You can go in alone or with your family without any worries. The menu prices are a bit expensive, but the taste is good and the place is comfortable, so it is just right when you include the cost of the location. It is so comfortable that you can spend hours there. I have the impression that there are a wide range of people of all ages here, including young people. The restaurant is very quiet, so I don't think it is suitable for those who want to have a lot of fun. Recommended for those who want to enjoy a quiet and relaxing atmosphere.

What a beautiful place! The ceiling is high and there is a pond with goldfish. The mama is nosy in a good way and has a comfortable Showa-era feel to her cooking. Everyone seems to order the hamburger steak, but this time I had the pork cutlet pilaf.

This gorgeous retro coffee shop is located in front of the station and has a parking lot in the back. The staff is young, cheerful, and energetic. It is a coffee shop worth seeing and eating at least once, though it lacks a little of the old-established feel.

A famous coffee shop just a short walk from Nagaoka Tenjin Station. It is a spacious store, but seems to be very popular. The friendly mama's attentiveness made me happy.

It was the best. I love Neapolitan and have studied it and gone to eat it many times, but I was always disappointed when I went out to eat it because the Neapolitan I make by myself is the best. The fact that this is a pure coffee shop also appealed to me, so I went there for the Neapolitan.

I am a regular customer who has visited many times for morning, lunch and tea time. Even if we don't say anything, the famous lady will always be attentive and show us the best seat for the best customer. Of course, this is only if it is not crowded. I love their morning egg toast so much!

The service is excellent, the food is delicious, and the staff is friendly. The service and taste are excellent.

The location is about a two-minute walk from Nagaoka Tenjin Station on the Hankyu Kyoto Line. The closest exit is the "West Exit". Parking is available on the back side of the store, but please use the street one street west of the store as the street in front of the store is closed to traffic. Bicycle parking is also located in the back of the building. There is also an entrance at the back of the store, so it is very convenient.

Retro coffee shop. An acquaintance took me to visit! The interior of the store has a high ceiling and chandeliers. We had tea while listening to the sound of water like a fountain in the center. The handmade pudding was so delicious that I would like to visit for lunch next time. The prices are reasonable, so if you are interested in this place, I recommend it!
