These “Art Mock Drinks” feature layered ingredients such as yuzu granita, soda, and jelly, creating both visual and taste experiences. Seasonal menus change regularly, adding new creations throughout the year.

A signature experience is the Canvas Cake, a white sponge cake served with edible paints and creams so guests can decorate their own artwork. The activity lasts about an hour and costs around ¥3,250 with a drink. Individual art drinks are priced around ¥1,800. While beautifully presented, reviews note that the sweets can be quite rich and sweet.

The café has a minimalist, gallery-like space—some areas are standing-only, emphasizing the art experience rather than long stays. Visitors can enjoy viewing displayed artwork while savoring their creations.

Overall, Unimocc Art Café offers a creative twist on café culture.
