Since the 1920s, Japan’s kissaten, quiet coffee houses rooted in slow living, became sanctuaries for reflection and culture. By the post-war era, jazz kissa emerged: dimly lit rooms, high-fidelity vinyl, and regulars who came not to talk, but to truly listen. I’ve always been fascinated by this world—the music, the atmosphere, the people who keep it alive. On this trip, I visited around 20 jazz kissas across Tokyo to support a fading culture and spend more time just listening. One of my favorites was this spot in Setagaya. Opened in 1960, it stands among Tokyo’s oldest surviving jazz kissas, still filled with Showa-era charm. The current owner, once a long-time regular, took over after the previous owner passed away. He’s warm, soft-spoken and has an incredible taste in music. I loved every song he played! John Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders visited during their one and only Japan tour in 1966, and the owner still treasures that piece of history. He’s also kept decades of guest notebooks, and I even found one from 1979. Regulars drop by after work or before their night shifts to listen to a few songs. Drinks are around ¥900, coffee’s served too, and it’s non-smoking with no cover—truly truly a gem!! 📍Jazz - Miles 🗺️ 1 Chome-37-14 Matsubara, Setagaya City, Tokyo 156-0043 💵 Cocktails ¥900 (cash only), no cover . . #tokyo #tokyotokyo #jazz #jazzkissa #jazzcafe #jazzbar #japanesestyle #vinyl #vinylbar #tokyotrip #tokyotravel #visittokyo #visitjapanjp #visitjapan #japantrip #japantravel

One of Tokyo’s Last Surviving Showa-Era Jazz Kissas 🎷💿🥃 Opened in 1975, this is a tiny old-school jazz kissa in Kamata named after Charles Mingus’ Pithecanthropus Erectus. The original owner opened the bar in the 1970s, and the current second-generation owner Tadao Torishima took over in 2015. The interior has barely changed, with rows of vinyl, handwritten menus, vintage furniture and old audio equipment. Even the unusual ceiling has a story—the textured shapes are meant to resemble clouds and were designed with the room’s acoustics in mind. Regulars drop in for drinks, request records and stay for the music. And somehow, the prices still feel old-school too: drinks are mostly around ¥500–800 ($3+) with simple snacks starting from just ¥300 ($2). 📍Chokuritsuenjin 直立猿人 . . #tokyo #tokyotrip #tokyojapan #jazzkissa #japantrip

Tokyo’s most beautiful hotel just reopened 🇯🇵 I visited Hotel Gajoen Tokyo before it closed last September, and it’s finally back! Now managed by Hilton and entering a new chapter before officially becoming Gajoen Tokyo, LXR Hotels & Resorts in 2027. The good news? It still looks very much like the Gajoen I remember, with so much of what made it special still intact. 🏯 ~100 years of history 🎨 Around 2,500 pieces of Japanese art throughout the property 🪭 Hyakudan Kaidan (“The Hundred Stairs”), its incredible historic cultural property 🌿 The waterfall + koi pond in the lobby 🛏️ Just 60 spacious Japanese-inspired guest rooms So rather than turning into a completely different hotel, it seems like it’s keeping its history, art and character while entering a new chapter under Hilton. I’m very curious to go back and see how much has actually changed 👀 📍Hotel Gajoen Tokyo, ホテル雅叙園東京 . . #tokyo #tokyohotel #japan #tokyotrip #japantravel

A Tokyo café run by the same couple for 50+ years ☕️ It’s one of those places you’d definitely notice from the outside—muted green facade, red awning, and those little window details. Inside, warm sunlight through the arched windows and shelves lined with old red coffee tins. Run by Junichi Miyamoto and his wife Fusako since 1968. He makes the coffee, she makes the cakes and sandwiches. Loved the thick-cut toast with different jams and black coffee. Simple but just right! 📍Shanty, Tokyo 💴 Coffee ~ ¥550 ($3), toast ~ ¥650 ($4), morning set ¥650 ($4) 🕰️ 10am–6pm, closed Wed & Thu . #kissaten #tokyo #tokyocafe #tokyocoffee #japan

One of Tokyo’s oldest surviving jazz kissas🎷💿👵🏻 Hidden on the second floor of Kabukichō in Shinjuku, this café has been part of the city’s jazz story since the 1930s. Originally a literary bar opened in 1938, it was reborn as a vinyl-only jazz café in 1978, now run by Yuko Kawashima, daughter of the original owner. The space feels frozen in time. Shelves lined with vintage bottles and records, portraits of jazz legends on the wall and a mellow glow fill the room. Yuko-san is incredibly kind and gentle. She doesn’t hear perfectly, so you might need to speak a little closer when ordering or choosing a seat. She still switches between mono and stereo needles depending on the record, since most albums before 1960 were recorded in mono, she changes cartridges to match the groove and era. It’s the kind of analog precision that defines the true jazz kissa spirit. The speakers fill the room with a soft, powerful hum—Miles, Coltrane, Johnny Griffin, Albert Ayler, etc. The sound feels alive, warm and imperfect in the best way. So happy you guys liked the last post, so here’s Part 2. Follow along for more jazz cafés and listening bars around Japan 🙏☺️ 📍 ジャズ喫茶ナルシス (Jazz Café Narcissus) 🗺️ 1 Chome-13-6 Kabukichō, Shinjuku City, Tokyo Y.O Bldg 2F 💿 Cash only | Smoking allowed | No cover 🍸 Cocktails around ¥1,100 (≈ $7 USD) 🗝️ Opened 1938 (pre-war roots) | Reborn 1978 🕰️ Closed Sun | Mon–Sat 18:00–22:30 . . #jazzkissa #jazz #jazzbar #jazzcafe #tokyotokyo #tokyo #tokyojapan #japan #japantravels #japantravel #japantrip #tokyotrip #tokyotravel #visitjapanjp #visitjapan #visittokyo #music #vinyl #vinylbar #listeningbar

Hidden Café with a Shibuya Crossing View in Tokyo. Located on the 17th floor of an office building, this café offers one of the most iconic views in Tokyo — but from a spot most people don’t even realize exists. Honestly, I’ve been holding off on sharing this place for almost a year haha. Coffee here is around $3 USD — unbelievably cheap for the view you’re getting. The vibe is calm and super chill. It’s also laptop-friendly with free Wi-Fi and plenty of outlets, so it doubles as the perfect remote work or study spot. 👉 How to find it: This is where it feels truly “hidden.” You won’t see it from the main shopping area — and there’s no big café sign. Instead, enter Shibuya Scramble Square from the B2F or 2F “Office Entrance,” look for the yellow office elevator signs, and ride straight up to the 17th floor. Step out, and the café will be on the left hand side. Sometimes I love finding places that feel like a secret escape above the city — and this one checks every box. Definitely worth a visit if you want coffee with that Shibuya view. 📍 5 CROSSTIES COFFEE 渋谷スクランブルスクエア 🗺️ 2 Chome-24-12 Shibuya, Tokyo 150-0002, Japan ⏰ Mon–Fri 8am–8pm / Sat–Sun 10:30am–6pm #tokyocoffee #shibuya #shibuyascramblesquare #shibuyacrossing #shibuyatokyo #shibuyacafe #shibuyastation #shibuyasky #tokyocafe #tokyocafeguide #tokyocoffeeshop #japantokyo #tokyotravel #tokyotrip #tokyotokyo #japantrip #japantravels #japantravel #japantravelguide #visittokyo #visitjapanjp #visitjapan #渋谷スクランブルスクエア #渋谷

Tokyo’s hidden underground kissaten in Kichijoji that feels straight out of a Ghibli scene. Opened in 1979 by members of a puppet theatre troupe, this cave-like café has lived quietly beneath the street for decades. It originally served as a quiet working and resting space for troupe members between shows and rehearsals. Their classic curry rice set (¥2,000) is the cutest, simmered with more than 10 spices. Their coffee beans are French-roasted, aged for at least two years, and hand-dripped to order. 📍 Coffee Hall Kugutsusō / COFFEE HALL くぐつ草 🍛 Curry set: ¥2,000 (~$13 USD), Curry alone is ¥1,400 ☕️ Coffee: ¥870 (~$6 USD) . . #kissaten #cafe #tokyo #tokyocafé #tokyofood #curry #japanesecurry #coffee #japan #visitjapanjp #visitjapan #visittokyo #tokyotravel #tokyotrip #japantravels #japantrip #japantravel

A mother–daughter jazz kissa in Tokyo 🎷 Since 1973, this tiny jazz oasis in Shimokitazawa has been quietly doing its thing. Opened by Misa, now 94, and today lovingly run by her daughter Ako.

NYC’s Stunning New Moroccan Restaurant 🇲🇦🐆🏺 Just opened in SoHo by the Maison Close team — velvet booths, carved archways, glowing lanterns, and luxe Moroccan details everywhere. Service is next-level too. Huge shout-out to Camille and Gabriel for being so warm and attentive. Cocktails 🍸 Dellah $26: Jasmine tea mojito with loads of mint and a fragrant tea aroma (8/10) 🍹 Kammun $26: Tangy and acidity-forward with a bright cumin-spice taste and creamy foam (9/10) Food 🐟 Black Cod Tagine $42: Served bubbling in a clay tagine; buttery, delicate, aromatic, bathed in saffron-ginger-preserved lemon sauce — one of the best dishes I’ve had in NYC this year!! (12/10) 🍚 Couscous Royal $46: Couscous topped with beef chunks, lamb meatballs, merguez sausages and a rainbow of veggies (squash, zucchini, carrots, turnips); comforting yet refined (8/10) 🥩 Lamb Shank $59: Braised with Moroccan spices. Exterior could be softer but still fragrant and satisfying (7/10) 🥕 Chhiwat Tower $48: A tall tower of Moroccan dips and salads. Fun presentation but mostly soft/puréed textures except for the carrots. After a couple of bites it can feel repetitive — skippable unless you’re a group looking to sample everything (6/10) 🍰 Pasicilla $16: Layers of thin, crispy pastry with orange blossom cream and tart raspberry on top — like a Moroccan mille-feuille (7/10) Overall Rating 🐟 Food: 8/10 🍹 Drinks: 8.5/10 🛎️ Service: 10/10 🏺 Decor: 10/10 📍 Ayah 🗺️ 77 W Houston St, New York, NY 10012 💸 Food: $20–$75 | Large Plates: $150–$180 | Drinks: $22–$65
