Maronia - a relaxing place to visit

As you walk through the entrance gate, you enter the unique world of Maronia. It has many interesting features including many antiques and good food.

Inside, there are many antique collectibles including a piano, a clock, and a sewing machine. Everything is very old and interesting. Even the music that is playing softly in the background is often classic jazz or big band music from a long time ago. It is like you travel back in time!


The food and drink here is delicious. The owner makes his own bacon and it is fantastic! Also, the coffee is freshly made and tastes very thick and strong. Maronia is a nice place to relax and get away from our busy lives!

This place is very close to where I live in Abeno ku, about 10 minutes from Tengachaya station on the Nankai line.
