[Tokyo, Iriya] Enjoy ice cream and coffee at the former public bath cafe♨️

Iriya, Taito Ward. Rebon Kaisaiyu is located just a few minutes walk from Iriya Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line. This public bathhouse, which had been in operation for about 90 years since 1928, closed due to deterioration and other reasons. However, it has been reborn as a cafe so that the charming historical building can continue to be loved. Step inside the building and you'll be transported to the world of the Showa era. It will bring back memories for Japanese people, and a fresh experience for foreigners. You can enjoy the Japanese culture and worldview that is rooted in public bath culture with each of your own senses. The cafe is only the former changing room space. The bath area is an office, but it is possible to enter it as well, so why not check with the cafe staff before stepping in. This cafe is not limited to the building and space, but also offers a rare pairing style of ice cream + coffee. This time we tried blueberry ice cream and Yunnan coffee! The taste varies depending on the pairing, so you can have fun not just once, but twice or even three times 😊 It can get crowded depending on the day of the week and the time of day, so if you want to take it easy, it might be best to go right after opening on a weekday.
