Tokyo Shinjuku-ku Nishishinjuku 1-2-6

This historic cafe has preserved its history and heritage in Shinjuku for over 50 years, since its founding in 1964 as a 'quintessential cafe'. Their coffee beans are discriminatingly selected from around the world, roasted, and milled right before flannel-dripping the grounds into a rich brewed cup of coffee. In addition to the standard original blend, if unusual beans come in, they are offered as the roast of the month. Tajimaya Coffee also serves light meals and sweets. Open until 23:00, it is an ideal night cafe spot.

新宿駅西口から徒歩２〜３分、思い出横丁の入り口にある瓦屋根に木造の店舗。重厚な木製扉を開けると、古時計がお出迎え、カウンターの奥には、美しいコーヒーカップが鎮座している。落ち着いた雰囲気で、着座での喫煙可能で、ゆったりと珈琲と煙草を嗜むことができる、今では貴重な一件。注文後に豆を挽いて、ネルドリップしてくれます。注文毎に変えるフランネルの袋は、1日何枚使うのだろうか？と考えてしまった。ブ...

Tokyo Toshima-ku Zoushigaya 2-8-6

This is a cafe popular for its in-house roasted coffee and desserts, located in Zoshigaya. One can enjoy the homemade sweets, and a serious cup of syphon brewed coffee from their carefully selected beans. The reason the store contains fishing tools in its name is because the owner sells old reels and handmade lures online. The actual storefront store also sells coffee beans and coffee accouterments. The weekly special coffee changes every weekend, and there are many seasonally limited items, making it always refreshing to return to the store. The food menu offerings, including the sausage plate, or the open-face sandwich are popular also.

雑司ヶ谷1番出口近くの珈琲屋さん。こだわりの珈琲とカスタードプリンをいただきました。プリンは固めなのにとてもなめらかで、苦めのカラメルとよく合っていました。すごく美味しかった！

Tokyo Taitou-ku Asakusa 2-4-2

This cafe on Asakusa's Rokku-dori Street has a striking appearance, with a red tent and glass. With a comfortable space like a cafe in Paris, you can go there from seven in the morning. It has an offering covering from morning to teatime, with a morning menu including croque monsieur and salads, a lunch menu with hayashi (Japanese-style beef stew) rice and galettes, and dessert menu with matcha ice cream and pancakes topped with chunky red bean paste. It also has a wine menu and a wide variety of barrel hard ciders which can be enjoyed together with snacks such as assorted cheese, olives and pickles.

What a disappointment ! Had high expectation, but the only good thing here is the wine, which they do not produce. The French Garrett they serve was the worst I ever had. It came with a huge salad...

You can sit and read your purchase while enjoying a coffee for a quiet break. Truly a shop for book lovers!

Took a walk at night for sightseeing in Sendagi area and found this lovely cafe. Coffee is good. Owner (the Barista) is very friendly. Good for someone who wants to spend quiet time.

Tokyo Sumida-ku Higashimukoujima 1-23-14

Kominka cafe Koguma is on an old shopping street in Higashimukojima. The building is an old wooden structure that once housed a pharmacy. The seats and tables were all once used in schools.

A bread bakery overseen by renowned French chef Joel Robuchon. The adjoining cafe is open from 8:00 a.m. and here you can enjoy the taste of fresh-baked bread in the morning. The NEWoMan, a bread created in celebration of the shop's opening, consists of moist bread redolent with the sweet fragrance of Tonka beans combined with the crisp crunch of almonds. The savory Robuchon curry bread and sweet breads like the Robuchon cream bread are also popular.

Déjà, le café de Mr Robuchon est très difficile à trouver à Shinjuku. Son café relève plus du Mc café que du vrai café Français comme on l’aime. Commande au comptoir pas de service à table, on doit...

Tokyo Shibuya-ku Jingumae 6-16-5HOLON32F

Cafe and restaurant in Jingumae, Shibuya City. Enjoy a relaxing atmosphere in a refreshingly designed restaurant. Try their popular soft-thin pancakes, or their thick fluffy souffle pancakes made from ricotta cheese. Or if you want something savory from their fashionable menu, try their risotto and keema curry, sandwiches, or eggs benedict.

We were surprised to find no one in line at 9:30am on a Saturday (they open at 10:00am). We’d tried fluffy pancakes in Kyoto, but enjoyed these ones more. The cream they put on the side was so good...

Tokyo Shibuya-ku Sarugakuchou 2-11 Hikawa Building 1F

Cuban restaurant from New York. Look for the freshly painted blue storefront and yellow interior decorated with Latin art and motifs of important figures such as Che Guevara. Try their menu of Cuban foods, rarely seen in Japan, such as their popular grilled corn, slowly grilled whole corn with cheese, and roast pork Cuban sandwich.

There are better Cuban alternatives in Tokyo - this one’s a real stinker. Where to begin? They charge a “seat fee” - and the place was almost completely deserted! The place reeked of cigarette smoke...

One of the most disappointing venues Ive ever been to. This was pure style over substance. Yes the tree house effect is beautiful. The flower shop is lovely and the way top the stairs is very pretty...

Tokyo Areas

The setting of countless iconic movie scenes and the inspiration for songs, poetry, and literature worldwide, Tokyo barely requires an introduction. It’s hard for the kaleidoscopic neon lights, wacky pop culture, and some of the world’s tallest structures not to instill excitement in any first-time visitor to Tokyo, whether you’re in the very center of the hustle and bustle in Shinjuku or Shibuya or looking in from the quieter suburbs.
