Local Secret · Tomigaya / Okushibu
Tomigaya 富ヶ谷
The quiet 'Oku-Shibu' (back Shibuya) neighbourhood behind Yoyogi Park, a low-rise grid of tiny coffee roasters, bakeries, natural-wine bars and design shops where Tokyo creatives actually hang out.
About
Ten minutes' walk from Shibuya's scramble, Tomigaya and neighbouring Kamiyamacho are the city's favourite slow-living district. There are no big brands: just a dozen excellent independent cafes, a few acclaimed bakeries, craft-beer and natural-wine bars, a renowned bookshop (Shibuya Publishing & Booksellers) and stores selling ceramics and Scandinavian furniture. Fuglen is the famous one, but the joy is drifting from side street to side street. Locals come for weekend brunch and then walk into Yoyogi Park; at dusk the wine bars glow on every corner.
Highlights
- Dense cluster of independent coffee roasters and bakeries
- Natural-wine bars and small bistros in residential lanes
- Shibuya Publishing & Booksellers on Kamiyamacho side
- Five minutes to Yoyogi Park for a picnic
