Cafes and bars in Jingumae, Tokyo

The block south of Meiji Shrine that holds more serious coffee per square metre than most cities manage in a full district.

7 venues reviewed in Shibuya.

  • Koffee Mameya Steep Pick
    Jingumae · Steep Index 8.6/10

    Tokyo's most respected coffee counter has no chairs and no menu, just a wall of beans and a staff that always seems to know exactly what you want before you do.

  • TRUNK(LOUNGE) Steep Pick
    Jingumae, Shibuya · Steep Index 8.5/10

    TRUNK Hotel's Cat Street lobby lounge, where the Yuzu Espresso Martini is the signature drink it claims to be and the room gives you every reason to stay through a second.

  • SYNdicate cafe
    Jingumae, Shibuya · Steep Index 8.4/10

    A raw concrete room in the heart of Harajuku that earns its calm.

  • KOPI KALYAN Tokyo
    Jingumae, Shibuya · Steep Index 8.2/10

    Tokyo's only Indonesian coffee roastery on Cat Street, where the iced Kopikalyan is the kind of sweet that lands exactly right and the Avocado Open Sandwich makes a genuine case for staying through lunch.

  • Higuma Doughnuts × Coffee Wrights
    Jingumae · Steep Index 8.2/10

    A doughnut shop and a coffee bar sharing one beautifully restored building in Jingumae, and somehow both halves feel like the main event.

  • THE ROASTERY by NOZY COFFEE
    Jingumae, Shibuya · Steep Index 8.1/10

    The Nozy Coffee roastery in Jingumae runs one of the most serious single-origin programs on this stretch of Shibuya, where the in-house roasting is visible from every seat, the aroma does the selling, and the barista service is the one thing the score is still waiting on.

  • uni
    Jingumae, Shibuya · Steep Index 7.7/10

    The fourth floor of GYRE on Omotesando, where the terrace overlooking the avenue is one of the best outdoor seats in the city and the coffee is, unfortunately, not the reason you came.
