You’ll be hard pressed to find a more spacious café in Shimokitazawa, especially one with free wifi. This Brooklyn import is located at the end of the Mikan Shimokita complex and it occupies a sprawling, lofty space.
The menu offers all the usual café drinks (which can also be made for takeaway) along with an extensive food menu. You can eat out all day at Brooklyn Roasting Company, with breakfast starting at 8am through to dinner last orders at 9pm. The food here is reminiscent of American diner staples – think breakfast plates, pastas, pizzas and steak. There’s freshly baked pastries, too, at the coffee counter if you just want a nibble.
Coffee wise, Brooklyn Roasting Company offers a good range of beans including the special Tokyo blend made with Ethiopian and Colombian beans. The light-roast blend offers refreshing notes of lemongrass, mango and dried fruits.
