MK Guide Recommends
Sabouru has long been a staple of Jimbochō’s café scene, renowned for its dim, atmospheric interior and its quirky tiki style that sets it apart from the district’s more traditional kissaten. Wooden carvings, colorful decorations, and a cozy network of small rooms create a nostalgic atmosphere where writers, students, and locals relax with coffee or a simple meal. The menu features yoshoku-style favorites—sandwiches, pasta, gratins—along with drinks that suit the café’s laid-back, timeless vibe. Sabouru’s charm comes from its consistency: cash-only service, familiar regulars, and a space that feels untouched by the rush outside. For visitors exploring Jimbochō’s bookshops or looking for a break from the hustle, Sabouru remains a warm, iconic spot rooted in Tokyo’s Showa-era café tradition.
