We adore strolling through this traditional Japanese-style garden located in Tokyo's Fukagawa neighbourhood. It dates back to the Meiji Period in the nineteenth century, under the classic principles of construction of the time.

Trying to get a reservation here is mission impossible, but we really recommend doing everything you can to get a seat here. Traditional Edomae skills and some of the finest ingredients are used in their unique pieces of sushi that you can't help but savour.

Arise Coffee Roasters is truly one of the most unique places to grab a coffee in Tokyo. It's a bit of a haven for the skate community that prides itself on its excellent third-wave coffee & good vibes. Tip: order their delicious pudding!

This compact, beautifully designed coffee space is centred around quality and detail. The carefully sourced beans are prepared with precision to create light, medium and dark roasts – the latter being their signature. There's often a special blend on, that’s great for a filter coffee. Order something straightforward to get a taste of the beans, such as a filter coffee or an espresso-based drink. The wooden interior and bonsai create a calm atmosphere before navigating the train station.
