Late-night specialty coffee in Tokyo

Specialty coffee in Tokyo after 9pm, for the nights when you need more than a vending machine.

Tokyo's specialty café scene tends to close early by the city's nightlife standards. Most bars shut by 7 or 8pm. Fuglen in Shibuya is the reliable exception. The Oslo-origin shop transitions into a cocktail bar in the evenings while keeping quality filter coffee on the menu. The room shifts in atmosphere after dark without losing the intention behind the drinks. If you need a late espresso or a well-made filter coffee after 9pm in a room that takes the coffee seriously, Fuglen is where you go. It is also the only place on this list, which tells you something about how hard the category is to satisfy in this city.
