喫茶とお酒 花と寅, we’re coming in!


Near the door,
there’s a board with information about
喫茶とお酒 花と寅’s specialty cream soda,
as well as their business hours.


There’s an ashtray near the window.
The interior is completely non-smoking.


And look at those stylish iron bars!
It really makes you wonder what the inside is like!

When you step inside…

The interior is based around black tones.

The moment we walked in, an enticing aroma drifted through the air.
The whole shop smells wonderful♪

  • 6 counter seats
  • 2 tables with 2 seats each
  • A two-person sofa
  • 2 chairs shaped like hands

There are 14 seats in total.


And the counter seats reflect
the care and preferences of Fukuyama-san, who runs 喫茶とお酒 花と寅.

When Fukuyama-san herself goes to bars and similar places,
she finds herself worrying,
“If I’m sitting across the counter, do I have to talk to the master?”
That makes her feel awkward,
so in her own shop,
“I don’t want to interrupt people.”
“I want them to settle into their own world.”
“I want them to spend their time however they like.”

With those thoughts in mind,
the counter seats are arranged so customers face the wall.

You can really feel Fukuyama-san’s thoughtfulness.


Cute kokeshi dolls and power outlets.

At the counter seats,
you can charge your phone or plug in your computer and relax.

Wi-Fi is also available
if you ask Fukuyama-san.

喫茶とお酒 花と寅 is full of kindness.


Manga, a stylish humidifier, and a water dispenser.


There are also paperback books at the counter.

The manga and paperbacks
are Fukuyama-san’s personal books.

So why does she keep her own books here?

福山 貴子さん
I wanted even solo customers to be able to spend time here at their own pace.
I’d like people to feel free to read them.

The books here are apparently all
deep-cut, niche selections with a tasteful edge.

She said many of them are the kind of manga
you might never pick up in ordinary daily life,
so she hopes people will enjoy discovering that kind of manga at the shop.


The table seats are near the door.
There are also baskets for your belongings♪


This sofa really stands out inside the shop.

It’s comfortable, with just the right height and softness for relaxing.


And this striking chair!
A chair that’s truly a work of art!

It’s a proper chair you can actually sit on.



The lighting is unique and cute too♪


This door is incredibly memorable too!

One customer even asked,
“Is this the entrance to the underworld?”
That’s how much the space makes you feel like you’re in another world.


And this mirror!
Doesn’t it look like something that would appear in Snow White?

みやたま
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all? lol
It feels like the mirror might actually answer.(笑)


And the washbasin has a retro feel.

Let’s take a look inside the restroom too!

The walls are pastel purple.
The walls and floors inside the shop, as well as the restroom decor, were all done from scratch by Fukuyama-san.

It’s the kind of restroom that seems like it would appeal to women♪
When the restroom is this clean, you can use it with peace of mind.


Near the door,
there’s a stylish fireplace-style heater.

The flames flicker properly, and it’s very soothing.

Items displayed inside the shop include…

花と寅 Original Healing Herbarium

These are handmade pieces by Fukuyama-san.


What is a herbarium?
It means a preserved botanical specimen.
花と寅’s herbariums are made by placing flowers in bottles of oil
together with power stones, sparkling glitter, and other decorative elements.

Besides herbariums…
