Sunshine City (Ikebukuro, Tokyo)'s Alpa 3F restaurant area will see the mid-July opening of "JOURNAL STANDARD CAFE," a new cafe concept by Baycrews, which operates specialty stores such as the select shop "JOURNAL STANDARD" and the popular "J.S. PANCAKE CAFE." Utilizing its spacious area of approximately 94 tsubo and open window-facing space, it proposes new ways to spend time, offering deli, brunch, tea time, and takeout options to suit one's mood and occasion. In the B1 area, a new store format for "GODIVA" and "Komeda Coffee" opened in April 2026 in an area frequented by office workers. By adding diverse cafe functions within the facility, we aim to provide a more comfortable and relaxing space. *This press release PDF can be downloaded here → d20364-1106-47176922dbfe08783089dfa5a5f5a2e0.pdf "JOURNAL STANDARD CAFE," opening on Alpa 3F, is a new cafe concept by Baycrews, which operates specialty stores such as the select shop "JOURNAL STANDARD," offering basics and seasonal trends, and "J.S. PANCAKE CAFE," popular among young women. It aims to create a space where sophisticated and stylish women in their 20s to 40s can enjoy a relaxed "time." It plans a two-pronged approach: a deli stand zone catering to workers and takeout demand, and a lounge cafe zone where guests can leisurely enjoy pancakes and brunch menus. The ability to choose how to use the space according to one's mood is also an attraction. Furthermore, a custom tea bar will be set up where guests can freely customize and enjoy black tea, herbal tea, and syrups, creating a comfortable space utilizing the approximately 94 tsubo area. Additionally, "GODIVA," which opened on B1 on April 30th, will be a new store format that not only sells products but also includes a cafe space where guests can enjoy original chocolate drinks "Chocolixir" and dessert crepes like parfaits. The B1 West Entrance area, where the store is located, is primarily a women's apparel zone. It will be developed as a cafe where women in their 20s to 30s, who enjoy trendy fashion, can take a break while shopping, aiming to improve circulation. Furthermore, "Komeda Coffee," which also opened on B1 on April 28th, will operate morning hours, targeting the needs of office workers. It will be a full-service cafe format, providing a comfortable space where busy professionals can spend a relaxing time before work. [Comment from Alpa Representative] Our facility is working to create an environment that can be used all day, from morning to night. With the opening of GODIVA, all stores in the B1 West district area are now complete, transforming it into an area that women in their 20s can use day and night. In addition, "gelato pique cafe," "Starbucks Tea & Cafe," and "JOURNAL STANDARD CAFE" are located in the west entrance areas on each floor on the Ikebukuro Station side, making it accessible to sophisticated customers and those working nearby. We will continue to strive for facility management that provides comfortable and valuable time for everyone in the community. Switch it up according to your mood!
