It's a bit tricky! The name of the ticket gate is "West Exit Ticket Gate," but the benches are on the east side!
When you exit the JR Ebisu Station West Exit ticket gate and go to the right, you'll see an outdoor Montbell shop and a road directly in front of you.
And, there are benches where you can sit and take a break, with your back to the street.

There are six wooden benches with handrails, each seating three people.
Since the road is behind you, it might not be the most relaxing, but there's less traffic than at the "rest area on the rotary side."

These benches face the ticket gates of the station, making them very convenient for meeting up in Ebisu.
Because they are so close to the station, they are versatile for waiting for buses or trains.
So, why not use these benches as a place to take a break around Ebisu Station?
