About
Cheesecake, tea and views over Otaru: LeTAO’s original store opened at Marchen Crossing in June 1998. Shop for sweets and takeaway treats downstairs, then enjoy Double Fromage, desserts and tea at the upstairs café. The top-floor viewpoint overlooks historic streets, sea and mountains on clear days; check current access before visiting. One café order per guest. Advance weekday reservations only, excluding same-day bookings and public holidays. The phone is a brand inquiry number, not a direct store line.
