Toshiharu COFFEE is on the 1st floor, and “Yurubodo” is on the 2nd floor of this building↓↓

If you go this way, you’ll find Fufu, which Yumacchi visited for a food article. Continue straight and you’ll reach Yamate Kansen.

If you go in the opposite direction, Super Maruhachi is right nearby, and it leads out to Route 2.
In Closing
This shop opened in November 2019. Nishi2 also wrote about it.
When it opened, it seems you could enjoy 147 board games, but when I checked their website, surprisingly, that number had grown to 204. Online games may be the mainstream now, but it’s still a little sad to lose a place where close friends could gather and enjoy games together.
