💴 Affogato-flavored Frappuccino for 685 yen
I ordered this Starbucks "Affogato-flavored Frappuccino," which is a vanilla frappé topped with a shot of espresso. It’s sweet with a hint of bitterness and quite smooth, making it particularly enjoyable to drink amidst the aroma of books.
This Starbucks located within the library is the quietest and most unique store I’ve visited so far. The library itself is beautiful, with a high wooden space and a whole wall of books, creating a stable atmosphere. The exterior looks quite special, and the interior did not disappoint.
In addition to the main library, it also incorporates the Tsutaya Bookstore, and the space is well-planned. Everyone sitting inside is very quiet, making it perfect for dealing with tasks alone or just relaxing.
Unfortunately, most areas do not allow photography; you can only take pictures in designated spots. I really wanted to snap a few photos to document the experience. The entire library consists of two buildings, with the one next to it being the children’s library, which also has a nice space.
After exiting, you can conveniently visit the nearby Takeo Shrine, which serves as a great resting point during your journey.
