Arakawa City, Tokyo, Japan｜尾久珈琲亭

A beautiful quaint and calming hidden gem that is absolutely fantastic and soothing for the soul. Filled with local obaasan and ojiisan it has a really nice community vibe with calming classic decor and a fantastic atmosphere. The coffee and tea are fantastic with excellent flavour and presentation and the Tuna Sando served with a soft boiled egg is an absolute delight and something I will dream of returning to try again soon.

About a 3-minute walk straight south from Miyanomae Station on the Toden Arakawa Line, this coffee shop is run by an elderly couple and has a very relaxing atmosphere, with a quaint interior that looks more like a real piece of time than an antique. The surrounding area is a quiet residential area, and the relaxing atmosphere of oldies music evokes a sense of nostalgia. 4 tables of 4 people? There are about 5 seats available at the counter. The menu includes 7 types of American blends, straight from Brazil to Mocha Matari, and Blue Mountain from Central and South America, as well as special blends. There are four types of black tea, and several other arranged coffees such as iced coffee and Amber Queen. The food seems to be some hot sandwiches. This time, I took the opportunity to receive a special blend. I think it's probably Kalita, but it's paper drip instead of flannel drip. Black drops served in antique Wedgwood cups. The sign says it's charcoal roasted, but I think the special blend is medium roasted, about the same as a city roast. The brew is a bit high, as you would expect from a coffee shop, but the coffee has a smooth texture and is very sweet. I think the quality chocolate taste comes from a blend based on Yemeni mocha matari. The sweet scent of cashew nuts may be mixed with Blue Mountain. (Appropriate) The ideal balance of exquisite sweetness and moderate acidity, which completely offsets the bitterness. It's a perfectly mature drink. I think the regular blend is delicious, but if you order this one, you might be able to appreciate its true value even more. The inside of the restaurant is so quiet and calm that you can almost feel like they are taking photos while others are paying off, which is something you don't get in the middle of the city. The father who suddenly starts to flush out Miyuki Nakajima is also adorable lol This is a must-see for coffee shop lovers.

I got a special blend coffee for 1000 yen. It was served with chocolate. Both the exterior and the interior of the store have a great atmosphere and make you feel better. You can spend time elegantly with one or more people.
