Noted

Sparse signal

Confidence2 of 7 signals on file

Score is heavily shrunk toward 50; treat as a placeholder until more sources arrive.

How confidence affects the score

Coverage measures signal availability, not cup quality. This coffee has 23% of the signal universe on file. Missing sources are dropped, remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 43% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.

The math on file: renormalized base 83.6 shrunk to 69.3 + bonuses = 71.

    Yes Onibus is legit, although they’re located a bit away from usual tourist spots. Also try Glitch for fanciest stuff ever, Mameya for a one-of-a-kind experience and Maruyama Specialty Store Omotesando to be spoiled by choice. Cafe de L’Ambre or Chatei Hattou for an authentic Japanese coffehouse experience (and if you.
