Setagaya City, Tokyo, Japan｜南蛮茶館

Cute little café nearby Chitose Karasuyama station. The place is non-smoking and very charming. Perfect to enjoy a good cup of coffee while reading a book. Siphon brewing method is used there and the coffee master is a very sweet and caring person putting a lot of passion in each cup he is making. He’s also carefully selecting the music played in his café, mostly jazz. The café serves few cakes and a good choice of toasts and sandwiches. The bread is really good and from a bakery nearby. You can also have Napolitan pasta! In summer you can get a nice kakigori with vanilla ice cream! Definitely a nice little local place with good coffee and a relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommended.

I visited on a Monday around 2pm. It looks like there are several stores 😳 Both the exterior and interior have a retro feel! I ordered a mandolin. It was siphon coffee. It was run by a husband and wife team and they were very nice people. Most of the customers were madams and elderly people, so it was a comfortable space to spend time in.

When I entered the alley near Chitose-Karasuyama Station, there was such a relaxing coffee shop. Enjoy delicious coffee in a relaxing atmosphere with jazz music. The cups are nice, there are various types of coffee, and you can also eat. The customers were of a wide age range, there were no people chatting, and the atmosphere inside the store and the people in the store were pleasant, and overall it was good. This time it was only coffee, but this time I would like to have a meal as well. Too bad I'm not a resident of this area! I will definitely go again when I go to Chitose Karasuyama.
