Since opening in 2007, the shop has been bustling with word-of-mouth reviews. Its bright interior and lively rock-inspired hymns create a pop atmosphere. While many customers are female, there are also a few male customers. Customers can receive a complimentary one-on-one prophecy with any drink, including their carefully roasted specialty coffee.

All staff at the shop can prophesy. The owner is Yoshida Bandai, a pastor at Arise Tokyo Christian Church, a musician, and a prophet. The prophecy begins with an introduction: "The Lord says, 'My beloved son, I love you,' says the Lord. 'So that you may boast...'" and you can receive a three-minute prophecy. You can record it, and it is said to be even more effective if you write it down and read it again after you get home.

"My hope is that you will receive a prophecy from God and be energized so that you can walk through life with courage. I hope you will find your true purpose in life and live a bright and positive life," says Yoshida. This is a place where you can casually drop in and take a break with a delicious coffee.
