ARC

For something sweet at ARC, visitors single out the cheesetart. Their comments describe a moist, smooth texture and a rich flavour that never feels too heavy. An Americano makes a good pairing: its clean finish balances the tart’s richness, and one visitor said it left no lingering sweetness. Another enjoyed the cheesetart’s moderate richness and sweetness with an Americano, finding it easy to eat even in the evening.

Some visitors have also enjoyed the contrast between coffee’s bitterness and the rounded flavour of milk in a latte. One described notes reminiscent of nuts and earth, making it an option for anyone after something a little different from their usual latte. The menu includes hot and iced lattes, an oats latte, and café au lait made with either milk or oats. Coffee options also include espresso, cappuccino, mocha and caramel macchiato, with hot or iced versions available for some drinks. For a change from coffee, there is hot Darjeeling, caffeine-free rooibos tea and iced mango black tea.

For a light meal, one visitor reported enjoying egg toast with a latte. It is easy to picture breakfast or brunch followed by a cheesetart and coffee. ARC in Tori-goe is open from 10:00 to 23:00 on weekdays and Fridays, and from 8:30 to 23:00 at weekends. It can suit a morning coffee or an evening treat.
