About this place
Settle into a seat facing an arcade game screen while familiar Showa-era hits drift through the room at Kissa Time Machine. The signature order to start with is the Neapolitan spaghetti, served in the traditional style of an old-school coffee shop. Finished with a slightly sweet ketchup sauce, the familiar flavors are comforting and pair neatly with black tea or a fizzy lemon squash garnished with a cherry. For lunch, the menu also includes quick bites such as curry hot sandwiches alongside the pasta.
Those visiting for a longer afternoon break will find plenty to linger over among the sweets and drinks. The dessert lineup features pudding à la mode, generous chocolate and matcha parfaits, and cream anmitsu with agar jelly and sweet bean paste. To drink, standard coffee and café lattes appear beside vivid cream sodas, bottled Coca-Cola, and Milo, offering a nostalgic nod to childhood favorites.
Handmade pixel-art portraits decorate the walls, and tabletop arcade cabinets let guests play games right at their seats. Upstairs on the second floor, a tatami-matted space holds an additional collection of vintage consoles. It is a relaxed setting suited to solo meals as well as leisurely breaks steeped in the culture of that era. Operating hours run from 11:30 to 19:00, with Mondays and Tuesdays closed; payments are accepted via credit card, PayPay, and d Barai.
