Fuglen Tokyo is where retro design, vintage furniture, coffee and crafted cocktails live in perfect harmony. In other words, if I could be a part of any small business venture, this would be it. This cafe by day and cocktail bar at night is a unique Tokyo establishment that I love visiting. Situated on the quieter streets of Shibuya the cafe is spacious with plenty of seating on the outside.

From busy Shibuya, to quiet streets outside of Shimokitazawa, hopefully you find this post helpful when looking for “the spot” to grab you coffee. It also needs to be mentioned, that…
