About this place
The choux pastry is firm, and the filling generous. Visitors praise amerikan CAFE’s freshly baked cream puffs and praline cream puffs as satisfying treats in their own right. The freshly baked cream puffs have sometimes sold out by evening, so it may be worth going earlier if you have your heart set on one. One customer also recalls being advised to refrigerate cream puffs within 1 hours of purchase to help preserve their flavour. If you are taking them as a gift, an insulated bag is a sensible precaution.
For breakfast, the morning set pairs thick toast with a boiled egg and a drink. Other options include thin toast, toast topped with ham, cheese toast and a ham sandwich, so you can choose between a lighter bite and a more substantial serving of bread. One visitor ordered toast topped with shimeji mushrooms, onion and sausage alongside iced coffee, then finished with a cream puff. They described the bread as soft and moist, with a pleasing balance of toppings. It makes for an enjoyable progression from toast to something sweet.
Sandwiches come in mixed, ham, egg or tuna varieties, and the menu says each is made to order in the café. Options include a mixed sandwich made with 4 slices of fluffy bread and a croissant filled with tuna and bacon—an appealing change from toast. Cakes are available to enjoy in the café, too; one customer shared their impressions of Fresno, a strawberry mousse cake. Whether you are stopping in for breakfast or a meal, or simply taking a break with cake, there is something to choose from. Takeaway is available as well, so you can bring home cream puffs or cake.
