Green River Roastery
A chic coffee shop, although there is a bus stop nearby, the location is not very convenient.
I came here with friends to chat and relax. There doesn’t seem to be a specific time limit, so it’s probably true that there is no time restriction! I plan to read and use my laptop here, but if I want to borrow a power outlet, I need to inform the staff that I can’t use it without permission. The staff said that there is no limit on how much to donate to the donation box for the stray dogs, so it’s actually a nice way to do some charity work; in addition, it’s user-funded!
To enter the shop, you have to climb to the second floor. After ordering, you can choose to sit on the second or first floor, then walk down the spiral staircase. The space isn’t cramped—it’s comfortable, and the chairs are wooden.
Now that I've talked so much, I should mention the food!
✅ Fresh Cheesecake 💰 180 + Handmade Pudding 💰 70
The pudding is an extra purchase; they go well together. The pudding is quite dense with a slight bitterness (the flavor of caramel pudding). I think the cheesecake isn’t too sweet, so the pudding adds a nice touch!
✅ Avocado Croissant 🥑🥐 💰 250
It seems to be seasoned with natural flavors; I can’t taste much mayonnaise. It feels like the seasoning is just sea salt and black pepper, making it taste very natural. If you like whole foods, you’ll probably enjoy it. However, if you prefer stronger flavors, it might seem a bit bland. I think it presents beautifully right when it arrives at the table—the croissant gleams and makes you hungry just by looking at it!
✅ Kumquat Americano 💰 180
I’m not someone who enjoys black coffee, but because it has kumquat, the taste is sweet and fragrant, which I find acceptable. However, my friend was a bit disappointed because the staff didn’t ask whether he wanted it iced or hot when he ordered. (This doesn’t affect whether I will come again—the staff is friendly.)
✅ Aomori Apple Juice 🍎 💰 150
Aomori apple juice is so famous that I ended up skipping other drinks!
I wanted to share all of this with you all!
