NEZUCAFE is inside the Nezu Museum in Minamiaoyama, Tokyo, with views across the museum garden from its sloping site. Stop here for coffee, cake or a meat pie between time in the galleries and garden. In autumn, the trees turn red, adding colour to the view; a matcha latte is another popular choice. The cafe’s quiet setting suits a slower break, though you may need to wait for a table and prices are higher than at some other cafes.
Choosing a seat
The cafe sits on an incline within the museum grounds. Large windows look out over the garden, so reserve the 10 a.m. slot in advance if a window seat is your priority. Arriving early, when the museum opens, can also help you avoid a long wait. Tables may still take time to become available.
What to order
Coffee, cakes and meat pies make up the cafe’s familiar choices. You can also order a matcha latte, or flan for something sweet. Prices are higher than at some other cafes in Japan attached to museums or temples, so factor that into your plans.
