Retro kissaten nostalgia

Kayaba Coffee is a historic kissaten set in a charming 1930s wooden townhouse in Yanaka, Tokyo. It offers a nostalgic glimpse into Showa-era Japan, with features like a tatami-mat seating area on the second floor, where guests can remove their shoes and sit at low tables. Known for its simple coffee menu and iconic thick-cut egg sandwich, Kayaba Coffee draws both locals and visitors alike.
