Fuglen Tokyo

I visited them the morning. It was a little bit hard for me to find it, but it’s worth to visit. Their Danish is really good. The staff is really nice and kind. The coffee was fine for me.

Loved the coffee here! I had some sort of Norwegian roast for my Americano and it was delicious. Fantastic hints of berries in flavour.
Great little pit stop to rest my feet after roaming Yoyogi Park and surrounding area. I doubt they make the pastries onsite but they were pretty fantastic nonetheless. I had a danish and croissant. The danish was sweet but not overpowering, and the croissant was deliciously buttery and flakey.
The vibe inside is very laid back. Lots of mixed conversations in Japanese and English were happening around me. Was great to kick back and read some articles on my phone for an hour or so (good wifi).
The staff is very friendly and had conversational English proficiency.
I was told in the evening this location becomes an amazing cocktail bar. I didn’t get a chance to see that but the person that suggested this place was on point for all the other recommendations he gave me so I would expect nothing less than good things for the cocktail bar.

Well, where do you go when you are visiting Tokyo as a Scandinavian? Of course to a Norwegian bar/​café/​furniture store. Actually we were in dire need of a coffee and I knew that Fuglen was in the area and I used to be a fan of their Oslo location so decided to give them a go here as well.
They serve their own roasted coffee as well as occasionally some other Norwegian roasters. The coffee here is very good, among the better cups I had in Japan and clearly of good third wave coffee bar quality. They also serve nice cocktails with fresh ingredients. When we were there they also had a nice sake flight which included a variety of local artisanal sake. I am no expert on sake but we got a very good introduction and the sheer variations in flavor were amazing.
The atmosphere is also a big part of the appeal here. The design and interior is pretty cool and the bit dark feel really fits well in the evenings where it is nice ti just linger here. Service was super friendly and knowledgeable.

oh I love that place. one of those locations where you could stay and read on a rainy day. very friendly staff, great coffee and atmosphere. and compared to the other places we’ve been in Tokyo so far the prices are more than ok!

Before posing the question «Why Norwegian coffee?» the more prudent question to ask is probably «Why not Norwegian coffee?»
Norway is the great Scandinavian nation that has brought us the World Barista Championships, and along with it some of the most prominent names in coffee at the moment: Fritz Storm, Paul Bassett, Tim Wendelboe, Izaki Hidenori, and most recently Sasa Sestic all first made their name as winners of this hallowed competition.
Fuglen proudly serves fresh roasted coffee from Tim Wendelboe’s eponymous company alongside other varieties roasted by Fuglen’s proprietary roasting company Fuglen Roasters on either aeropress or French press; they also have a pretty reputable espresso bar that I didn’t arrive early enough for.
As if you needed another reason to visit Fuglen, they also have a carefully-​curated alcohol and cocktail selection with an award-​winning mixologist on board who specializes in Akvavit-​based cocktails for that extra Scandinavian touch.
Oh and not that it matters too much, but Fuglen also has one of the most sophisticated and chic interiors I’ve ever seen in a Café.

I am not an authority on coffee, but I do have a lot of friends that are total relentless dicks about coffee and I wouldn’t hesitate to bring them here. The espresso is awesome.
Also, I’ve never written a review about a vibe before, but it’s worth noting that this place has an excellent one– the décor, staff, etc. all so on point. Great spot.

Fuglen takes its coffee very seriously and it shows. Best coffee I’ve had in Tokyo. Great ambiance too — like being in a mid century living room with soft lights and jazz music in the background.
There’s many coffee options to choose from, but I was thrilled with a simple cup of black coffee.
There are a few good options plus a tray of pastries to snack on. I had a small sandwich of lox, cream cheese and dill on rye. The coffee and sandwich totaled about 1100 yen. It’s not really any more expensive than many of the other coffee shops.
What really puts this place over the top is that a night it becomes a cocktail bar! The cocktail list isn’t extensive, but I watched the two bartenders meticulously put together several drinks and it’s clear they take the booze as seriously as the coffee.

You are in for a treat. Amazing coffee, knowledgable staff, and great setting! One of the top cafes in Tokyo!

A nice chill café for some serious coffee.
I’m no coffee connoisseur so I don’t know how to describe it, but I can tell you it’s absolutely epic and you should try it.
Place serves coffee cocktails in the evening, and you can bring in your own food, which is pretty convenient. Moderately crowded on weekends and I never got the chance to sit at a table.
