Yanaka Coffee-ten Yanaka Shop - Taito

For all your coffee aroma needs. Ok, i 'm not really being facetious they roast their own coffee beans here, and the aroma from this is simply, mind blowingly, awesome. (You can also get a cuppa coffee to go. Plain coffee (americano , no espresso, latte, etc. And yes, it is *excellent* The beans here are the star they have bins and bins of beans, their own selections mostly, and you can converse for _hours_ with them on the characteristics, style, type, flavor, etc. Mind you, if you don 't have any Japanese, you 'll be reduced to point and pick , but, well, that 's ok too :

Great little coffee place. Great selection and very reasonable prices. Mostly for take out, but nice to sit and smell the fresh beans. Stop by and say hello.

Super friendly and knowledgable staff and was very accommodating. Can't wait to try my freshly roasted beans once I get back home! Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Very nice, very small coffee shop with lovely couple running it. Drip coffee (as standard no espresso like much of Japan). Wide selection of beans roasted on site

Plenty of coffee choices to choose from for roasting. Yaman, Tanzania, Malawi, Guatemala, Indonesia to name a few. While waiting for roasting (from 10-40mins) you can wander Yanaka Ginza. There are some roasted beans ready to buy as well and they also offer drinks. It's small so dont expect to sit down there to enjoy coffee or to wait.
