About

ORAND opened in Honjo-Azumabashi. It is a book cafe run by the Sumida bookstore YATO, with the concept of enjoying reading and reflection in quiet time and space. In an interior where soft light comes through windows onto plaster walls, you can enjoy light meals and a sweet item built around sandwiches and seasonal crepes, like a bookstore's worldview turned into space.

— Keep talk quiet, open a book

ORAND opened as a cafe run by the Sumida bookstore YATO. The whole shop is designed for reading, thinking, and spending time doing nothing, and when you visit there is a request to keep conversation quiet. Rather than a lavish dinner or flashy dishes, it fills the time with a light menu, such as a cup of coffee, toast, a seasonal crepe, and sweets. Plaster walls, and soft light coming through the windows. A little away from Asakusa and Skytree, where tourists crowd in, it runs as another face of the bookstore, for people who need books and quiet.

“Nostalgic café space that helps reading and thinking”

✼••┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈••✼ What I had this time: • Coffee Peru ¥600 • Café au Lait Kenya ¥700 • Crepe Caramel & Vanilla ¥850 • Black Sesame Pound Cake (gluten-free) ¥480 ✼••┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈••✼ As noted in the menu warnings, this is a space made for reading and thinking, so loud voices or noises are forbidden. Bringing books and notebooks and immersing in the space is time to face yourself — I love it. I ordered both coffees on the deeper side. The deep roast seemed to spice up my thoughts. ◆ Black Sesame Pound Cake (gluten-free) The moment I opened the bag, a sesame aroma drifted out. Staff kindly explained the ingredients — a body-friendly cake using natural ingredients. The pitch-black look and black sesame as the main ingredient might cause hesitation, but one bite reveals that gentle sweetness erases sesame's unpleasant bitterness — it's a proper sweet. I want to come back many times. Thank you for the meal.
