Love this little book+cafe with jazz music! It's a sanctuary from the scorching heat and busy life, to feel calm and relaxed with good quality coffee . You can get single origin coffee and beans too!

Cozy little cafe with a cute cat and lots of books. :) The staff are kind, coffee and food is made with care. You can choose the beans for your coffee. I want to try the breakfast set next time.

나고야 여행 중 이른 오전에 방문했는데 분위기도 좋고 커피랑 토스트도 너무 맛있어서 다음날 또 방문했어요. 할머니 분이 주인인것 같은데 카페 모든 공간을 정성스레 가꾸시는게 느껴졌어요. 그래서 소박한 듯 아늑하고 정말 깔끔해요. 드립커피도 최고였고 오전시간에는 200엔 추가하면 토스트랑 샐러드를 주시는데 토스트 토핑도 다양하게 선택 가능했어요. 다른 손님들도 계셨는데 커피 마시면서 조용조용 대화하는 차분한 공간이었어요! 이 카페 덕분에 이번 여행이 더 행복했습니다.

How does one succinctly talk about a near-perfect experience? Littletree is a cafe located about 10 minutes from Kamejima Station and right next to Noritake Aeon. The outside is an unassuming little building nestled between a few residential buildings. Besides the sign, there are some gorgeous outdoor plants that guide you inside. When you step foot into the cafe, you are greeted by a huge wall of books, lush house plants, mellifluous jazz music spinning on a record player, gorgeous high ceilings, and the divine smell of fresh coffee brewing. The menu is a huge fixture on the wall above the kitchen area. There are multiple kinds of single origin coffee and a plethora of sweets to choose from, ensuring that you have many combinations to try on repeat visits. The quality of the coffee is excellent. On this visit, I went with the Uganda blend. It was a sweeter taste and well blended. I also got a chocolate brownie to pair with the Uganda blend per the host's recommendation. The brownie was next level delicious. It was moist and lightly salted to balance out the sweetness. The pairing with the coffee was perfect in every sense of the meaning. The cafe has a quieter atmosphere despite the jazz music playing. Of course, people can go to the cafe to have a quiet conversation, but it is also a great place to bring a book and have a read with a delicious cup of coffee. There are also a bunch of cool little knickknacks that you will notice on repeat visits. Even the cups and plates the food and drinks are served in are gorgeous! The host was not only extremely kind, but knowledgeable. I can't say enough good things about her. The seating and hours are limited, and there are no outlets or free WiFi, so take those into account. However, I think that it's intentional. People are meant to relax, have some respite, and then move forward with their day. Last point I'll mention is if you're lucky, you'll go on a day where the host brings their cat in to lounge and hang out. For those with pet allergies, that may be off-putting, but for other customers looking to pet a fluffy cat, hope that it's your lucky day! Go to this cafe and have a fantastic experience. Please take note to be quiet and respectful to the other customers as well.

Such a lovely cafe near to Noritake garden. A small cafe but oozing with charm. Lovely music as the owner plays music from vinyl records. Ordered the cafe latte which has a cute neko on it. So pretty I can’t bear to drink it. It is so relaxing and calming that after I finished my toast, I ordered an owner’s made chiffon(whimsical cake) and pudding. Everything is so perfect in this cafe. Total paid ¥1750.
