Customer Katsuhiro Yamanaka aptly describes it as a “郊外にある雰囲気の良いボードゲームスペース” (a lovely atmosphere in the suburbs).

At the Cryptomeria Café, you’ll find an extensive selection of board games, catering to everyone from complete novices to seasoned strategists. Whether you want to dive into a thrilling マーダーミステリー (murder mystery) on weekends or enjoy a casual game of TRPG on Friday nights, there's something for every type of game lover. Customers rave about the diverse offerings, with one visitor noting the café is welcoming for families, providing games suitable for even the youngest players.

Though the menu is more focused on beverages with occasional sweet treats, patrons can enjoy a refreshing drink while fully immersed in gameplay. It’s recommended to come with a well-prepared appetite, as the focus here is truly on the games. Many regulars spend hours lost in strategy and surprise, as echoed by customer 西澤絵里子, who mentions spending six to eight hours playing on weekends with only a drink in hand. The social nature of the café allows for a unique experience where one can share a table and a game with friendly fellow gamers if you arrive solo.
