Luke’s Lobster

Another American import is Luke’s Lobster. Originally from the East Coast, Luke’s Lobster is famous for its lobster rolls and sustainable seafood practices. Local fishermen catch seafood and thoroughly examine it before sending it directly to the restaurant, which means diners only get the freshest hand picked fish. The restaurant also serves crab rolls, salads, and bisques, bringing the best of New England cuisine to the backstreets of Shibuya. Can’t choose between the many options? Luke’s offers a lobster, crab, and shrimp roll for indecisive hungry diners.

The Roastery

The Roastery, the newest cafe from Nozy Coffee (caffeine fanatics’ favorite spot), only offers single origin blends. The Rostery’s goal is to change Japan’s perspective on coffee. They want their coffee to be known for its subtle notes and flavors rather than its caffeine content. Only three options are available espresso, latte, and Americano and customers can choose between two single origin beans for the espresso. While The Roastery’s goal is to foster a love for third wave coffee, the vibes in the cafe are surprisingly unpretentious. The staff is friendly, and they offer help to indecisive customers. The cafe is spacious, making it the perfect place to relax in the middle of a shopping spree.

Number Sugar

Caramel is not common in Japanese desserts, but Number Sugar is here to change that perspective on the chewy sweet. Number Sugar creates caramels without any added preservatives or coloring, and they pride themselves on the natural tastes their caramels offer. The caramels, which are all made in house, come in eight different flavors. Number Sugar wants to let everyone know caramels are not just for special occasions. Even on a regular day, we can treat ourselves to a piece of buttery goodness.
