Curated book cafe-bar

Under Gakugei-daigaku Station's viaduct, Counter Books combines a curated new-book store with a lively cafe/bar. Opened in August 2024, it thrives on thematic book selections such as philosophy and local culture. The dual space is designed for reading, socializing, and events such as zine fairs and author talks.
