One of the few places that serves drip decaf coffee right inside the JR Tachikawa station on the Ecute side. Both decaf and regular coffee are made with a slow drip and has a nice aroma and mild taste. You can get some cakes sets or a sandwich too. There aren't many seats but it's a nice semi-quiet place to relax or take a break. There are some counters to plug in your mobile devices. Although it looks like an open space, no eating food that's not from the cafe.

I waited Tachikawa to meet up with some friends, I was there 20 min. Early and Decided to get a cup of coffee. Was I happy to see cafe that served dripped coffee. I went there and ordered my coffee, paid and stepped up to the counter where a young woman started preparing MY CUP of coffee in front of me. To see the entiuastic way to prepare my coffee was just an extra bonus. But I was really surprised when she looked up at me, and in perfect English, asked how I was, not an everyday experience in Japan to find a cafe with English speaking staff. So I can recommend the good coffee and the god service at Drip mania to anyone, especially turists.

立川駅構内にある。北口の近く。 朝7時過ぎに着いたが、約束の時間まで少々あり、時間を潰す必要があった。そんな時に、7時からやってますとの立看板。 コーヒーは400円から、なんとなくMサイズ450円をオーダー。なんと目の前でドリップしてくれる。店内利用でも紙カップなのは興醒めだが、飲み終わらなかったので逆にありがたかった。 コーヒーは酸味が強いもの、香り高く美味い。朝の時間帯にはこの手の味が効く。 支払いはPayPayが使える。ただし、ポイントは付かない。

仕事と仕事の合間の時間調整にかなり助かりました。 提供も早いですし、席も空いていて、数分のみの滞在でしたが、本当に助かりました。 ずっとこの辺に住んでいたのに、改札内にカフェがあることを知りませんでした。 また利用します!
