Luncheon

Choose a seated meal and beer on 2F between book visits, checking Sunday/Monday closure and the approach first.

Choose the meal first

Luncheon suits a cooked Western-style Japanese meal and beer rather than a quick coffee between bookshops. Its current menu includes a beef pie with stewed beef inside pastry, omurice, hamburg steak and menchikatsu, a breaded minced-meat cutlet. Choose by the meal you want. Do not order from an old description alone: the same official page marks several dishes, including omelette and beef stew, as currently paused.

WHERE · On foot from here

Which side of the station, and how far

East of Jimbocho Station, about 100 m in a straight line from the station point. The position is the official address point and may differ from the entrance. The shaded areas are about 5 and 10 minutes on foot from here.

Walking bands are computed by FOW on the OpenStreetMap surface street network at 80 m/min and drawn as a smoothed approximate area around the streets reached. They ignore exit positions, station interiors, underground passages, signals, slopes and routes inside buildings — not directions; follow on-site signs.

Opening days and 2F access

Hours are Tuesday–Friday 11:30–21:30 and Saturday 11:30–20:30, closed Sunday and Monday. The operator describes continuous meal service and a nonsmoking room. The restaurant is on 2F; follow its advance-contact guidance if a lift is needed. If you need step-free access, confirm the whole route for your visit as well as asking about the lift.

Check the actual table

A larger dining room does not guarantee a table at the time you want. Check the food-order deadline for a late visit and choose from the current menu. A meal here serves a different purpose from coffee and tango at Milonga. You do not need to add a cafe automatically afterwards.
