Kokubunji, Tokyo, Japan｜Café Slow

There is a story to be told about Cafe Slow. This place features a whole vegan eco-system in their space. Drinks and Food are organic. They offer a wide choice of craft beers, (non)-alcohol cocktails, Lemonades, unroasted coffee beans for the connoiseurs, teas, breads, hand made products. The meals come with either verbal or written explanation, to give you more details what you are about to eat. In the shop area you can even choose, pick & mix the ingredients yourself (to be taken home to prepare your meal). This venue and eco-system is an experience in itself. It caters for the health conscious and conossoirs of all types. Everything is crafted on a high level and that includes the beers as well ! There is also a small exhibition area, Saturday night life concerts, the Linkaran bakery next door, an outside area and an eco market. We love this place. It is located in the west of Tokyo and features its own community.

Great vegan place with options to have a dish with fish or meat. So it's easy to go there even with non-vegan people. The service was very good. They have an organic and plastic-free shop inside and a kids corner with some Montessori inspired toys. The food was good. I also liked that they have coffein free coffee.
