Midori-Ya Cafe

Allied Faction:	Neutral
Allied Groups:	Civilians
Location Type:	Business
Grid Locale:	Juuban Ward
	The Midori-ya is popular with commuters for several reasons, the first of which is that it's easily found from the main road leading into Juuban or a nearby train stop. Its gate reveals a two-story building amongst grass, trees, and a stone path that leads to a pond and adjacent dojo. While the upper floor serves as the Takamachi family's residence, the lower floor is host to a successful bakery. Sweets such as cakes and cream-puffs join coffee and a variety of other treats, and many customers sit in booths with pink seating nestled alongside light blue walls. This leads to a bright, soft ambiance that is quite popular with school-age girls and frequently visited by others living in the area. The mix of high-quality food and an inviting decor has helped the Takamachis make the Midori-ya a successful small business, run by those who love their work and enjoy being part of the community.
