Housed in a century-old renovated machiya in Kita Ward, Circus Coffee is the project of roaster Ryo Watanabe, a certified Japanese Coffee Bean Quality Specialist who hand-roasts small batches in seasonal lots from origins across the globe. The cozy interior and attentive counter service have earned it strong consensus on Tripadvisor and among local specialty devotees seeking a quieter alternative to the well-trodden central route. The rotating selection of single-origins and seasonal blends ensures every visit is a fresh experience.
