Tama, Tokyo, Japan｜PARLOR

Fab little beer and coffee spot off the beaten path. Library selection is excellent. Tasty brownie to go with coffee or beer. Wish it stayed open later...

I always drop by whenever my dog Hanachan is getting groomed at the pet salon nearby. I really like the interior, the latte and the cheesecake (creamy texture with crunchy cookie toppings...yum!) The guy behind the counter (I assume is the owner) is also very kind and professional. He makes his customers feel comfortable. There are also books and magazines- a wide selection so you can browse through them while sipping coffee. It’s the kind of place where you can have aimless conversations with a friend, read and absorb ideas or write down life musings. I’m glad this gem of a place is just a stone throw away from my place.

This cafe was a wonderful surprise! Their coffee was perfect - I've struggled a little to find good espresso coffee in Japan, but the espresso here is top notch. This area has a few awesome cafes actually - Japan's coffee central!
