Where is Forerest's entrance from the parking lot?

Once you put Forerest into your navigation and park, you end up facing a space that looks like it leads up into a mountain. You wonder where the café could possibly be, but just follow the stairs all the way up.

Outside Forerest there are lots of seats and plenty of curious sculptures, so it feels like you have wandered into a mysterious forest.

What does the Forerest interior feel like?

Thanks to the high ceilings and wide-open forest view, the inside of Forerest feels bright and comfortable. And like a plot twist, once you step inside, you find yet another space, completely different from the outdoors.

The music was calming too, so I felt healed the moment I walked in! The ceiling looks just like a mountain lodge. You can see the forest of trees through the windows, and that green mood was so lovely!

Window work seats and group seating at Forerest

Forerest has several room-like sections and quite a few large shared tables, so it is a fine café to visit as a group.

The small rooms have window seats facing outside, and several people were quietly working or reading. It looks like a good place to come and work alone.
