(Coffee Shop Rikyu)
Escape the crowds of lost tourists at Starbucks and use Rikyu. This delightful retro coffee shop is an excuse to explore the neighborhood of Kitasenju. The area is full of unique and family-owned places to eat, one of which is the elegant stylings of Rikyu. The cute café is full of dark wooden tones reminiscent of a bygone era. Behind the counter, you’ll see an impressive collection of antique coffee and tea cups, adding a touch of elegance to your visit.
The delicious two-tone yokan jelly comes with most hot drink orders. For those looking for something more substantial, the café serves up an array of hot sandwiches, each crafted with fresh ingredients and served warm to perfection. The menu also includes comforting spaghetti dishes, offering a satisfying meal for those with a hearty appetite. For dessert, choose the homemade cheesecake, an elegant dessert so your fancy teacup doesn’t get lonely.
