andoh coffee — Restaurant in Tokyo

Great coffee ☕️

Lovely little spot right in the heart of Kichijoji, if your in the area and enjoy a great cuppa this is a good spot for you to check out. If you want to sit an watch people walk past or just get a quick on on the go this is for you!

There is always a good selection of different coffees to choose from. Lighter roasts to more medium and full what ever your heart desires!

Owner of the store (Ando) is a little shy but a really lovely guy! I’m sure you can enjoy some great company with your coffee! Normally around 5 different beans to choose from (don’t let that scare you) there is a super easy to understand roasting level on the menu you can just point and enjoy. As well as a de-cafe for those who enjoy coffee but can handle take the kick. These all roasted by the owner with great care and attention (it shows).

Around 500 yen for a coffee (at the time of writing the review October 2022) average for Tokyo.

Enjoy...

This is a small modern roastery that serves take-out coffee with an even smaller selection of snacks. While the staff are amazing and the coffee was made meticulously (I think they only do pourover for their regular coffees), the seating area inside was left to be desired. However, the coffee speaks for itself. We took home a bag of beans that tasted tart and fruity when we came back...
