If you\u2019ve been to Tokyo before, you\u2019d surely be well acquainted with East Japan Railway, or more commonly abbreviated as JR-East. From the same folks behind JR-East comes the Japan Rail Caf\u00e9, which\u00a0isn\u2019t just a place for train otaku (enthusiasts) to hang out and bond over their love of the transport mode, but more of a travel-themed caf\u00e9 where one can plan their travels to the Land of the Rising Sun. Not surprisingly, JR railway tickets are also available for purchase here \u2014 if that\u2019s not on your itinerary yet, then the numerous Japanese travel posters, brochures and grub should inspire you.<\/p>\n

Come here for: Nippon-esque drinks, such as the Royal Milk Tea and Kuromitsu Kinako Latte.<\/p>\n

As King’s Cross Station Platform 9\u00be is very far away, fans of the Harry Potter movies would surely relish spending time in this establishment, which boasts a wizardry and magic theme. It should also easily satiate fans with menu items such as Mrs Lich\u2019s Butterscotch Ale, Platform 1094\u2019s version of Butter Beer. Making this place extra Instagram-worthy is the availability of props \u2014 that witch\u2019s hat and wand should take your selfie game up by a notch.
\nCome here for: Besides the ambience, the food here is equally magical, and has garnered quite a following. Good things have been said about their mains, such as the Crab Meat Aglio Olio, which fans praise for its quality and quantity.<\/p>\n

Gudetama is an adorable but lazy Japanese egg character who just wants to lie around all day \u2014 something most of us can relate to, especially on Mondays. Luckily, this beloved cartoon\u2019s themed caf\u00e9 is anything but lazy and uninspired \u2014 the interiors are awash in eggy hues of yellow and white, and generously endowed with Gudetama graphics, including the food. It is a strangely gratifying experience to pierce an oozy egg yolk with a face on it. And, yes, it\u2019s highly Instagrammable!<\/p>\n

Come here for: The Citrus Pan is an edible trompe-l’\u0153il \u2014 the \u2018soft-boiled egg\u2018 is actually a dessert consisting of a lemon curd \u2018yolk\u2019 and meringue \u2018egg white\u2019.<\/p>\n

Cat caf\u00e9s are not a new concept, and when they first started in Singapore a few years ago, cat lovers rejoiced and immediately declared these places \u2014 where you get to enjoy the company of fluffy felines together with a cuppa or a teatime treat\u2014 their haven. Meomi Cat Caf\u00e9 offers just that, with its stable of furry residents waiting for you to give them a nice belly rub.<\/p>\n

Come here for: A relaxing afternoon in the company of cats and discovering the unique traits of each of these creatures.<\/p>\n

What Chef-in-Box VendCaf\u00e9 lacks when it comes to an actual eating area, it makes up for with a dizzying selection of food and drinks \u2014 all dispensed from vending machines! The menu options aren\u2019t your usual insipid sandwiches or soggy pizza slices. Expect fresh, hot dishes such as Seafood Hor Fun, something one could imagine being served by a pot-bellied hawker rather than dispensed from a machine.<\/p>\n

Come here for: Whatever craving you have! The offerings range from traditional Nasi Briyani to trendy grub such as paella with salmon patty and black pepper sauce.<\/p>\n

Behold the Millennial\u2019s favourite fruit, the avocado! At All The Batter, the creamy fruit is celebrated and revered not only in classics such as Avocado and Eggs, but also in unexpected menu items such as the Avocado Rhapsody, a chocolate cake with avocado cream and studded with avocadoes.<\/p>\n

Come here for: The food, which has been highly praised. The menu items here have even made fans out of non-avocado lovers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
