Coffee shop • 4-chōme-23-2 Totsubo, Oguchi, Niwa District, Aichi 480-0125, Japan
The cafe-rest Merhen, with its Showa retro atmosphere, is a long-established coffee shop in Ooguchi-cho. The open and bright interior is bustling with local patrons, creating a leisurely flow of time.
The specialty of Merhen is the hearty Neapolitan. The rich ketchup sauce mixed with boiled spaghetti, along with plump shrimp and salmon roe as accents, recalls the nostalgic taste of home-cooked meals.
In this smoking-allowed establishment, there is also a focus on snacks. The homemade pudding, full of handmade charm, has an exquisite sweetness and texture. Paired with an iced coffee, it will bring you a soothing comfort.
The antiquated atmosphere, as if left behind by time, is also part of the charm of Merhen. Spending leisurely time in this quiet coffee shop, you can create memories enveloped in the scent of the Showa era.
