Roast their own beans. Amazing selection. Great omelet sandwiches. Excellent cake. One of the rare open-before-8am breakfast spots in the city. Dinner is less impressive but their morning tortilla / egg / salsa concoction is quite spectacular Best sandwiches in Tokyo. Huge. Hearty. Spectacular, thick, slices of bread. Also great coffee and Hitachino craft beer. Massively long bar counter. Endless whiskeys. Walls covered in records. Best stereo / sound setup in the city. Just remember: keep your voice low. 上目黒3-8-3, 東京 +81 3-3716-8338 cafe-facon.com 猿楽町16-15, 渋谷区 +81 3-6415-3232 tysons.jp/ivyplace/ 代官山町11-13, 渋谷区 +81 3-6277-5734 crownedcat.com 恵比寿1-22-23, 東京 +81 3-3441-5055 martha-records.com/martha/ Annon Cook (アンノンクック) Café 5 Saigoyama Park (西郷山公園) Park 6 Denny's (デニーズ南平台店) Breakfast 7 THE ARMY GYM 8 Men's Store As a non-meat eater I relish the often rare, well-done veggie friendly spots. If you’re a man, however, be forewarned: You will be lunching with girls Secret park perched above Nakameguro. The real secret is the tiny street just along side — stroll down until you hit 246; the cliffside mansions are a treat. Denny’s — 24 Hour People Watching Spot — Work late. Order little. Watch the night folks do whatever it is night folks do Sturdy, well made, simple clothes, inspired by mountaineering and WWI. The Army Gym is Nigel Cabourn’s only flagship international outpost. 猿楽町28-3, 渋谷区 +81 3-3462-6263 ambidex.co.jp/annon_cook/ 青葉台2-10-28, 東京 +81 3-5721-7287 南平台町16-11, 渋谷区 +81 3-3496-1430 dennys.jp 青葉台1-21-11, 東京 +81 3-3770-2186 旧朝倉家住宅 Garden 9 Asakura House.
