Currently, the first floor is an English cake, tea and miscellaneous goods shop, and the second floor is a caf_ that is popular among tea-lovers, with an English antique atmosphere. English interior features appear in many details, such as the doorknobs and light switches. The popular menu of the caf_ is its afternoon tea set, with cakes, scones, sandwiches, etc. There are approximately 40 different teas from England, France, India, etc., and its cakes are baked fresh every day in the kitchen.
