Ogawa Coffee Laboratory — Restaurant in Tokyo

I have had the pleasure of visiting the Ogawa Coffee several times and am happy to share my experience with you.

One of the first things I noticed and appreciated was the coffee itself: here the coffee is roasted on site, which gives the drinks an authentic and delicious aroma and flavour. Every cup of coffee I've tried here has had a distinctive and rich taste, showing the attention and care that goes into the preparation.

In addition to the drinks, the dishes and desserts offered at the shop have always been an excellent surprise. I tried several specialties on the menu and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the ingredients and the careful and creative preparation.

Considering the quality of the drinks and food on offer, I think the price is more than fair. It is a truly advantageous value for money that makes the experience even more pleasant.

The shoop features a minimalist design, which contributes to a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. The choice of essential but welcoming furnishings makes it the ideal place to relax, work or simply enjoy a quiet moment with a good...

We went there for the carrot cake and the espresso martini. The place feels spacious and bright, and the staff is very nice.

Regarding the espresso martini, there is NOTHING bad I can say about it. Everything was on point from start to finish: the vodka was kept in the freezer, the glass was chilled with ice while the cocktail was being prepared, the bartender tasted the cocktail with a spoon to confirm that the proportions were correct, it was garnished with three coffee beans, and served with a glass of water. Perfection — 10/10. There were even nice enough to give us the measurements.

As for the carrot cake, we first sat down near the kitchen, so we could even see them preparing it. The slice was presented with great care and even came with a dash of olive oil on the cream. I'd never tried it like that before, but it worked like a charm. The only criticism I have is that the cake came directly from the fridge, so it felt a bit too hard.

Otherwise, I definitely recommend this place! I'll come...

Tried the American Style Breakfast with charcoal grilled butter toast with hot house blend coffee (1 breakfast set for ¥1800, ~$19AUD). The breakfast doesn’t look fancy but each ingredient was delicious, the scrambled egg is smooth, the skin of the potato is crunchy, grilled mushroom with parma ham was a perfect combo, etc. The toast looks simple too but it is with airy texture and perfectly toasted. The house blend coffee was very nice because it doesn’t taste too citrus and not too strong to have with empty stomach. Staff were friendly and some staff can speak simple English.

I wasn’t sure what to do when first arrived the cafe because there was no sign in guiding customers. What I did was I went inside, reached to one of the staffs at the counter and told them I needed a table for 2. Then, the staff will use body language to tell you to wait on the side. Then, they will wave you when your table is ready, order your food at the counter and then go to...
