Corner Corner

Corner Corner is located in the 30-seat hideaway that is RPM by Dbespoke, a Japanese speakeasy by night. In the day, the vinyl-clad space doubles up as a coffee house inspired by the Japanese jazz kissaten, or listening café. Savour the slow art of drip coffee – courtesy of Nylon Coffee Roasters – while listening to the day’s chosen tunes. On some days, it’s Japanese synth pop meets exotica in Hiroshi Sato’s Orient (1979), and on others, it’s bossa nova tunes and city pop in albums like Shigeru Suzuki’s Lagoon (1976). Corner Corner also teams up with local patisserie Pantler for its dessert menu, which sees kissaten classics like caramel pudding, as well as snacks like mini orange pound cakes, cream roll cakes, and soda floats.
