Finally
This is a roadside location with the ordering counter on the first floor, eat-in seating on the second floor, and a drive-thru. It’ll be interesting to see what kind of store it becomes after the renovations. We’re curious what changes there will be to the interior, layout, ordering system, and more.
Chochino-san, thank you for the tip!!
