Tokyo is a city with so many outstanding cafes it's often called a mecca for specialty coffee. Among them, Nexpect Coffee, a new cafe from Genji Kojima, who helped the legendary Oslo cafe Fuglen establish a presence in Japan, sets a new standard by focusing on the very essence of coffee.
A Minimalist Space Where Tradition and Modernity Coexist

Located on a quiet street in Tokyo's Kodemmacho, Nexpect Coffee is a special space that was once a newspaper shop. The interior, filled with natural light from a large front window, has a calm and refined atmosphere, thanks to its minimalist design and clean wood tones. This is a place where you can pause from the bustling Tokyo city center and fully immerse yourself in the beauty of coffee and the space itself.
Experience World-Class Coffee

The coffee here is more than just delicious; it's close to art. The cafe serves hand-drip and espresso made with beans from Tim Wendelboe, a world-renowned roaster and 2004 World Barista Champion, using a Danish dripper. The central counter and screen-based ordering system allow the barista to focus solely on the coffee, which is a crucial element in creating a perfect cup.
A Time for Complete, Undisturbed Immersion

What Nexpect Coffee pursues is a complete, immersive coffee experience. To achieve this, the cafe prohibits the use of laptops to maintain a quiet and focused atmosphere. Just as its name, a combination of "next" and "expect," suggests, this is a place that promises a better coffee experience and a new expectation for the future.
