Vending machines with coffee cans are everywhere. You can not hide from the amount of vending machines placed on the streets and you can not help it but to purchase at least a can a day. However if you’re to looking for more ‘made on order’ coffee, its rare to find a good one.
Harajuku is been a nice place to stroll around the streets taking photos of fashion and weird dress up people but I wouldn’t to think of looking for coffee around this neck of town. As soon as you walk out of the station (using the yamanote line) All you can smell are dem crepes.
So I had locals recommending me places here for coffee and since I had a haircut appointment (suprisly located in harajuku/omotedsando) I thought to try out one or two coffee joints afterwards. About Hair Salon’s in Japan, They say you will be treated like a god. When I visited one, I felt like I was was the prince of some white castle. I couldn’t take photos in the salon cause I was too busy being a god for an hour. It was an interesting experience. Recommended Expect to pay ¥6,000 (cut/ blow dry) worth it.
So, After my haircut, one of the guys (Tanaka) in the hair salon guide me to the recommended coffee joint which I thought tasted pretty good. It wasn’t far from the Salon, and was more towards the residential area, you can miss it cause this place doesn’t even look like a cafe. It basically looks like a Japanese house with tatami mats and a coffee machine. Just one guy (wearing some sort of scientist apron) pumping these coffees. so cray
