ignis

Ignis is probably the best speciality coffee shop in Tokyo, but maybe in Japan in general. They make coffee with a lot of care and attention to details, a true omotenashi experience. Visit Ignis on full moon, they are open until 11pm (check their insta before), to enjoy their atmosphere to the fullest!

Stumbled into this place amid the number of coffee shops in the area. It was very nice and they have a tasting menu like a small flight of beers in a brewpub. The coffees were very good and the staff was quite nice. The only thing is there's no stools inside, it is not a very big place, but two stools would be nice. There is a bench outside though and the street is nice.

By far the best coffee I’ve had in Japan! The beans selections is great, there’s a lot of choices and they all have an explanation about its flavor, and the owner is very helpful (and obviously very knowledgeable) so it’s a nice experience! Also the extraction process is really interesting, and the owner is also very sympathetic and friendly

The store was empty but I wasn’t allowed in even when I had friends inside, all ordering. I wasn’t allowed inside because “I didn’t order anything”. Poor taste and common sense. I understand if the shop was too full and busy to accommodate. Lack of customer service especially in Japan, the coffee is $20 USD for a cup. Would expect higher-service.

Drip coffee at its best. The delicate flavor is simply delightful.

If you like drip coffee and single origin beans, this is the place. High quality beans grinded and prepared on the spot in front of you. Plus please take note that it cost between ¥1000-¥10000 a cup depending on the type of bean you choose. I think this place suits people who enjoy coffee quietly alone due to the limited seats and expensive coffee

I stopped by here to have an evening coffee. The shop is very nice with an intimate setup allowing for interaction between baristas and customers. I find the setup refreshing for Japan and enjoyed it very much. The staff were very friendly. The coffee was also very interesting and nice. The coffee was more subtle than at some places such as Glitch, but with some patience the brews developed well with interesting flavour notes.

This place is practically screaming, ‘Look at me, I’m a haven for pseudo-intellectuals in black turtlenecks and Muji/Wabi Sabi addicts!’ The staff? Oh, they treat you like a stupid tourist the moment you dare to ask a simple question. And the prices? Absolutely mind-blowing. For 1400¥, you get a babychino — aka warmed-up milk with pre-made coffee from the fridge, three generous scoops of sugar, served in a completely tasteless glass, with the pièce de résistance: two delicate spritzes of coffee on top. Honestly, I haven’t been scammed this hard in years. For that price, I could enjoy a full sashimi lunch!
