Traditional Japanese sweets hideaway

Hokusai Sabō is a serene haven in Tokyo's Sumida district, celebrated for its traditional Japanese sweets and connections to the legendary ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai. Renovated from a traditional nagaya, this café retains a warm, Japanese-style atmosphere where guests savor house specialties like anmitsu and warabi-mochi. Nestled near the Sumida Hokusai Museum, it draws in locals and visitors alike, making it an ideal complement to a cultural afternoon.
