The third wave coffee in Tokyo is incredible. A favorite spot was Onibus, a supremely delicous coffee shop in Naka-Meguro. It does double duty as a roaster—peep the 15-kilo-capacity Diedrich behind the till—and I loved sipping pour over iced coffee (because I am a monster) on the outdoor patio.

Came on a weekday and managed to get a seat by the window for the iconic shot. Coffee was light. However, it was still delicious both oat, soy, and normal milk. The banana bread was on the chewier side, not the moist banana cake texture . Overall, it was a lovely experience and one of the better coffees we had thru out the whole trip exploring cafes in Tokyo. Cash and Card both accepted here.

A cozy cafe in Nakameguro. Only few tables are available though so it could get crowded depending on the time. The staffs were very nice. I got the Hot latte & a chocolate cake. Both tasted great. Would love to try their other cakes/bread next time.

Ok, if this place wasn’t so crowded, it would be an absolute GEM of a place. The lovely outdoor seating, the cozy, quaint vibes in the upstairs seating area. But there were so many people here on an early Saturday morning. The drinks and food were all solid. And staff were extremely kind. But not sure if I’d go out of my way to come again (and I live only 15 min away).

Onibus Coffee Tokyo has a great reputation for its coffee, and I was excited to visit. The coffee itself is excellent—rich and flavorful. However, the place was absolutely packed during my visit, which made the experience less enjoyable. It was hard to fully relax and take in the atmosphere with so many people around. If you’re a coffee lover, it’s worth checking out, but maybe try to go during off-peak hours for a better experience.

Around 3 min walk from Nakameguro station, cozy place. The train sound was container, so it wasn’t bothering. Ordered latte, like because it’s not so sweet. Can say we’re enjoying our time here :)

Coffee is nice. Bit creamy for my taste as asked for a Flat white so a little bit too much milk but the location is fabulous- I would have an Americano next time as the coffee is still a great brew - worth hunting down.

Great little cafe at Nakameguro. Light stroll from the metro station and easy to find. Friendly staff can communicate in English and great knowledge of coffee. Coffee is excellent and I believe the beans change seasonally. Had the Kenya pour over filter coffee which was a clean, crisp and touch of flora berries. The banana cake was great as well with a touch of coffee butter. Highly recommended.

Lovely coffee shop! They have both upstairs and downstairs seating. If you sit upstairs you can watch the trains go by as you enjoy your coffee. I ordered a latte which was not too sweet and my husband ordered a drip coffee which he enjoyed. Service was friendly, drinks didn't take too long to come out. Also looks like this place gets frequented by foreigners because 90% of the people there were speaking English.

A beautiful little coffee stand with some outside seating right next to the train track. It's a great vibe with the street in front of you and the sound of the trains from above. The menu is very simple with nothing other than basic drip coffee and espresso; no flavorings at all. That being said, the lattes are fantastic and the coffee and milk are very smooth. A wonderful spot - I can understand why it is so highly recommended!

Anytime you search up local coffee roasters, one that always seems to pop up is Onibus Coffee. It was a bit out of the way for me, but boy was it worth it. First lets talk coffee. I ordered pour over Columbian. It was solid, good flavor, hit the spot. Picked up a bag of beans (review coming up) Second the hours. Its one of the spot that is open nice and early. Lots of seating (but half of it is outdoors, so rain or snow, you maybe limited). Third, and probably outshining the good coffee, is the view. Head upstairs to find a small seating area that overlooks the trains that pass through. With great music, good coffee, it was certainly an amazing experience. Overall Kel rating: /5 The good: Combination of good coffee, amazing seating area, great customer service (they gave me a breakdown of where they source their beans) The decent: seating can be very limited upstairs. The ugly: Can be on the pricier end of coffee.

I went to the iconic train cafe! The drinks were pretty good - I got an oat latte, not badly priced. The coffee was almost sweet?? I'm not sure if it's just the oat milk but it was a yummy drink. I waited around 15min and finally got the iconic spot. It was cool to see how close the trains were. It's a very small store so I recommend going in the weekdays around 12pm! It's not a spot where you can spend hours, simple just to drink your coffee.

Fantastic coffee shop in a very cute neighborhood. Serving on a Marzocco Linea. Perfect temperature, nice smooth texture. Lovely art, and great people! Don't miss it.

Onibus is the one coffee shop I knew I needed to get too. It however was not always near by. I finally made it to this location for an afternoon latte pick me up. Although, the weather was warm when I'm first ever trying a coffee shop I generally order a hot drink because it takes so much more care then pouring espresso over ice and milk. I enjoyed it, but as with most coffee shops I had to drink cows milk which I haven't had in YEARS so that was tough for me. I really, never ever drink this sort of milk. I'd like to think it was a non fat or low fat option as it wasn't super creamy and my latte was still enjoyable. I'd say it's safe to say Onibus draws a certain crowd. I got that hip vibe while looking at the clientele here which I didn't mind one bit. They were also perfectly located beside a little park that had the most beautiful cherry blossom blooms so that was a definite plus. I'd love to see places offer oat milk or even almond milk, some folks don't drink cows milk or consume soy so I've gotta bump a star off for that reason, otherwise service and product is nice.

Onibus Coffee Nakameguro is an adorable place for coffee and their step coffee was delicious. We also love the design on their cup, it is colorful and lighted up our day.

Cute little coffe stand perfect for the hipster that frowns upon commercialized coffee shops. Good coffee, better than Starbucks. Close to the Meguro River where the Cherry blossoms are in full bloom. I suggest getting your coffee fix here if you are planning on going to the world's largest Starbucks reserve roastery up the street as there was a three hour wait there.

Stopped by this adorable little stand for the perfect latte. I thought the coffee was super-smooth, and one of the few times I didn't add a touch of sugar. (Any hint of bitter or sour and I need to combat it with sugar.) The staff was incredibly friendly, and you could see them roasting beans in the back. There are some benches with outdoor seating, or a small park next door. It's just a short walk from Nakameguro station.

We ordered the standard drip coffee of the day and it was honestly alright. Not something to blow us out of the water but it has the third wave coffee taste - it's sour and light but refreshing. Not a huge fan but the location and aesthetics of this adorable place makes it worth a short trip.

How cool is this spot! Not only is it super photogenic but the coffee is fantastic! Our espresso was served in kintsugi cups which made these tourists swoon. Would highly recommend when in Tokyo!

A little disappointed in this hipster coffee joint. The latte was way too milky! Barely has any coffee taste. However the pour overs were pretty tasty, we tried the Honduras beans that has a hint of honey flavor. As for the decor and look & feel of the coffee shop, it's super picturesque and on a nice day you can sit in the outdoor area next to the coffee shop and people watch. We really liked the design of the store.
