The Best Experience for Every Occasion: A Day as Proposed by scenes

At scenes, we offer a diverse menu and services tailored to each customer's needs from the beginning to the end of the day. Here, we introduce how to enjoy a full day at scenes.

Start Your Day Right with a Kusatsu Morning

Why not start your day elegantly in our sunlit cafe? The morning menu at scenes is thoughtfully crafted to gently nourish your mind and body, providing you with energy. Dishes like Avocado on Toast and the colorful scenes Big Breakky are the epitome of wellness. Our aromatic coffee, brewed with specialty beans from New Zealand's Allpress Espresso, is the perfect way to wake up. We also highly recommend trying a flat white, a rarity in Shiga Prefecture. Savoring a high-quality meal and Shiga coffee in the morning is sure to make your day more fulfilling.

A Pleasant Afternoon with a Stylish Kusatsu Lunch

Lunchtime is the perfect occasion for a chat with friends or a treat for yourself. At scenes, we offer a visually stunning lunch menu that is casual yet highlights the natural flavors of the ingredients. Choose from a variety of options like Eggs Benedict or a hearty hamburger to suit your mood. Our bright and open space makes lunchtime even more enjoyable. Here, you can enjoy not just the meal, but the relaxing flow of time itself in a stylish Kusatsu lunch spot.

End Your Day with Kusatsu Wine and a Gourmet Dinner

Dinnertime is a special time to soothe the day's fatigue and deepen conversations with loved ones. At scenes, our carefully selected wines and meticulously prepared dishes will enrich your evening. Our Oceania-style cuisine brings out the natural flavors of the ingredients and pairs perfectly with wine. Enjoy a relaxing time with your favorite Kusatsu wine in hand in our calm atmosphere. Whether for an anniversary with a loved one, a business dinner, or a quiet evening alone, dinner at scenes is the perfect choice.

Allpress Espresso: Leading Shiga's Coffee Culture

Allpress Espresso is a specialty coffee roaster born in Auckland, New Zealand. Their coffee beans are carefully roasted by skilled roasters to bring out the maximum character of each bean. At scenes, we use these exquisite beans, and our baristas pour their hearts into brewing each cup of exceptional coffee.

Discover the Flat White

We particularly recommend the flat white, a beloved coffee in Oceania. It features finely textured steamed milk poured over espresso, creating a rich body and a smooth mouthfeel. With less milk sweetness than a latte, the coffee's flavor stands out, allowing you to deeply enjoy the true taste of the coffee. In the Shiga coffee scene, places where you can enjoy an authentic flat white are still limited. Please come to scenes to try an authentic flat white and discover its charm.
