Tokyo Cafe Tour: Comparing Fuglen Coffee Asakusa vs Shibuya

If you love coffee during your trip to Tokyo, you must visit Fuglen Coffee.

This brand, which started in Oslo, Norway, is also famous in Japan for its stylish atmosphere and rich coffee flavor ~

I’ve been to both the Asakusa and Shibuya locations!

⸻

📍 Asakusa Location
- Quiet and local vibe
- Exterior with a traditional Japanese house feel mixed with Nordic sensibility
- More local customers than tourists, perfect for quietly enjoying coffee
- Great location to stop by during a walk!

📍 Shibuya Location
- Definitely trendy and sophisticated, true to Shibuya’s style
- Small interior, but fun to watch the barista make coffee at the bar seats
- Higher tourist ratio, many takeout orders, good for a quick coffee break
- Can get crowded, so I recommend going during a less busy time

⸻

☕ Both places have excellent coffee!
But the vibe and flow are completely different.
If you want a calm atmosphere, go to Asakusa,
For a trendy vibe and a quick coffee break during a busy day, Shibuya is a great fit!

⸻

✔️ Tips
- The menus at both locations are almost the same, but the coffee beans may vary daily.
- Asking for a recommended brewing bean is also part of the fun!
