01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Layered with six tiers of tender crêpes, fresh fruit, and smooth mixed cream, the mille crêpe commands attention the moment you look into the display case. Located on the fourth floor of the atré Ebisu Main Building, HARBS atré Ebisu features a showcase lined with thoughtfully crafted cakes, from the classic strawberry cake with fine sponge to a rich marron cake fragrant with rum, and a banana cream pie layering crisp white sesame pastry with custard and bananas. Though the slices are notably generous in size, their balanced sweetness makes it easy to enjoy every bite right to the end.
Teas and coffees crafted to complement each cake
An extensive drinks selection pairs naturally with the time spent savoring each substantial slice of cake. The black tea list includes mellow, rich royal milk tea, fruity Darjeeling, and bergamot-scented Earl Grey, all available hot or iced. Herbal options are equally varied, ranging from fresh herbal infusions made with rosemary and spearmint to blends combining rosehip and hibiscus, lending a refreshing finish that cuts cleanly through rich cream. For coffee drinkers, choices include the deeply roasted, aromatic Manhattan Blend or an iced milk coffee poured over iced coffee cubes.
Lunchtime pairings of pasta and cake
Beyond cafe hours, a pasta-centered lunch service caters to those looking for a fuller meal. Diners can choose from distinct pasta options, such as a seafood pescatore combining shrimp and mussels in a mellow tomato cream sauce, or a refreshing pasta tossed with tart lemon juice and Parmigiano cheese. The lunch set comes complete with a salad, a drink, and a half-sized slice of the day's cake, rounding out the meal with HARBS' signature dessert style.
Alongside table service for dine-in guests, cakes can also be selected directly from the counter display to take away. Queues often form depending on the time of day, making it wise to allow ample time for a sit-down visit or opt for takeout when picking up sweet gifts.
