If you’re going during cherry blossom season, this place is truly recommended!
Starbucks Reserve® Roastery Tokyo, located along the Meguro River, is an extremely popular spot where you can enjoy a luxurious café time together with the full bloom of cherry blossoms by the river.
⸻
【Access】
• Nearest stations: About a 14-minute walk from Nakameguro Station, about a 10-minute walk from Ikejiri-Ohashi Station
• Strolling leisurely along the Meguro River, you’ll see the shop along with the cherry blossoms!
• It’s a bit of a distance from the stations, but that means you can enjoy a walk and hanami at the same time.
⸻
【How to Reserve During Hanami Season】
• Usually, mid-March to early April is the best time to see the cherry blossoms!
• During the hanami season, the Roastery Tokyo may have entry restrictions, so you might need to get a reservation ticket in advance through the official Starbucks app or website.
• Reservation slots fill up quickly, so it’s best to check early!
⸻
【Insider Tip for Terrace Seats】
• There is a plan called the **“Terrace Seat Reservation with Sakura Lunch Box”** costing nearly 10,000 yen, sold only during cherry blossom season, but actually…
There are multiple terrace seats on other floors, so you can enjoy the hanami atmosphere without a reservation or extra charge by using those!
• It’s recommended to order a drink inside the store, find an available terrace seat (on the 2nd or 3rd floor), and sit there.
⸻
【Experience Highlights】
• The interior decoration is magnificent, featuring a large roasting machine and different drink menus on each floor.
• There are plenty of spring-limited drinks and cherry blossom-themed sweets!
• Recommended are the tea corner and the coffee cocktail corner! The first floor is extremely crowded, but most drinks are also available at other stores… If you go upstairs, you can enjoy rare and delicious drinks!
⸻
【Summary】
A luxurious space where you can enjoy hanami and café at the same time!
For a cost-effective experience, using the “hidden gem” terrace seats is recommended. Whether you’re a Starbucks fan or someone who wants to savor spring, this is a must-visit spot!
