The cafe specializes in a variety of dishes, particularly their signature mille crepe cakes.

You can also indulge in their Croque Monsieur sandwich, accompanied by a fresh salad and, when you visit, do not skip the opportunity to savor their sumptuous chocolate cake or the seasonal chestnut cake. Each bite is a testament to their commitment to quality—moist, flavorful, and perfectly balanced to satisfy sweet cravings without overwhelming your palate.

Went there for an afternoon tea, the queue was quite long as usual. Tried one of their lunch sets with Croque Monsieur Sandwich, Salad, Ice Coffee, a Chocolate Cake (half sized), and an order of Chestnut cake & Apple Juice. Everything was so delicious and presentable. Ingredients were fresh. The cakes were very, very yummy (moist, rich, and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweetness and texture). The 2 drinks were good and refreshing. Services were attentive. The cafe environment was not super comfortable because it was always too over-crowded. The outstanding quality of the cakes was one of the reasons that worth the wait time. Highly recommended!

Iced red tea tastes strong favour even with lots of ice. I was planning to get the fresh fruit cake but it sold out quick before high tea time so I got the cherry cheese soufflé which is amazing. The cream is thick and creamy with not too strong cheese favour which is good. Soufflé is smooth and overall is high quality cake, lovely!

Had to visit Harbs in Nagoya! Always loved their fruit cakes when we were in New York, but super expensive there. The crepe cakes are just as good as I remembered. Honestly much better than the strawberry tarte we got. So probably wont recommend that. The teas were ok - would recommend the Royal Milk Tea over the Earl Grey.

Went in at busy hours and despite the crowd and language barrier, the full team of waitresses were super patient and polite without the faintest negative vibe. Absolutely superb attitude :))

Harbs offers an exquisite dessert experience. The famous Mille Crepe cake is a light, delicate masterpiece with fresh, layered fruits and cream. Paired with a satisfyingly savory Omelet Toast, it’s a perfect balance of sweet and savory. A must-visit for cake lovers!
