Cafe TOLAND

Café TOLAND is located in the Osu Shopping District. The entrance can be a bit hard to find, but inside, the café is spacious and comfortable. The interior, including the sofas, is thoughtfully designed and clean.
The café is famous for a dessert called “Puffle,” which is stylish and looks just as good as it does in pictures.
