Toggle Cafe

Step out of the lift onto the 9th floor, and Toggle Cafe reveals itself at the back of the hotel level, open and welcoming to hotel guests and outside visitors alike. The interior strikes a stylish note with its clever two-tone palette of greens and greys, while expansive windows draw in generous daylight and frame views of the surrounding cityscape, lending the room a bright, calm atmosphere.

The signature draw for an afternoon break is the Earl Grey chiffon cake. Cloud-light and finely textured, the sponge carries the distinct fragrance of black tea, nicely balanced when paired with a spoonful of smooth whipped cream. It drinks just as well alongside a bitter espresso-backed hot café latte as it does with a spiced chai tea milk or a gently sweet strawberry latte, giving diners plenty of ways to match their mood.

For a light lunch or mid-afternoon bite, the daily sandwich is an easy choice. Fillings rotate across options such as tuna or chicken and egg, sized comfortably to pair with a freshly brewed drip coffee. On weekends, public holidays, and event days, a fruit sandwich occasionally joins the lineup, alongside richer baked sweets like warm fondant au chocolat and apple pie.

Beyond coffee, the cafe stands out for its well-curated tea selection. Pots of Japanese and Western herbal infusions allow guests to linger over distinct aromatics—from the brisk, forest-like perfume of Akita kuromoji (Lindera umbellata) tea and the rustic earthiness of Nara mugwort tea to the eye-catching blue tones of lemongrass butterfly pea.

Seating options range from relaxed tables to window-facing counter stools, complemented by an outdoor terrace that comes into its own during pleasant weather. Equipped with Wi-Fi and serving evening drinks such as Coedo craft beer and wine, the space accommodates solo work sessions and casual pauses during an urban stroll with equal ease.
