This time-worn kissaten oozes with Showa-era vibes. From the fake food displays out front to the retro interiors, Parlor Kimuraya is exactly what you’d expect from a classic Tokyo kissaten. Having been around for over 30 years, the café has a particular charm that can't be replicated at any modern coffee shop or café. It really feels as if you’ve stepped back in time.
The menu offers all the classic kissaten staples including napolitan pasta (ketchup spaghetti), chicken rice topped with a blanket of egg, and pizza toast. There’s also a handful of colourful desserts such as kakigori shaved ice, pudding, anmitsu (agar jelly with fruit) and banana sundaes.
Open from an early 8am, Parlor Kimuraya is a great place to grab a quick breakfast or a coffee while watching the Shinbashi office workers go about their day.
