Venue
Read moreA pretty spacious place. Room for 18 to sit upstairs and some seating downstairs too. Nice mix of traditional and modern. A mix of woods. Some art adorning the walls. Plants in the window. Very pleasant.
Service
I was given a warm welcome from both Erika & Scott upon entry. Order confirmed and payment taken quickly and without issues. I was then directed upstairs to find myself a seat and then my cake & coffee soon arrived with a smile.
Food
Due to visiting ANDPON & GOLD FALAFEL in the last 4 hours, I didn’t have much room left for Folksaka’s wares. But the Peanut Butter Brownie & Cafe au lait really hit the spot.
Price
1100jpy for a brownie & coffee. Perfect.

Thank you so much for the lovely and detailed review! We’re glad you enjoyed your coffee and sweets! We’re also glad you were able to try Andpon— they’re super delicious!

Loved it - Edit
The food here was fantastic. Super flavourful and creative. Left me feeling satisfied and healthy. The miso brownie was a standout. They were also playing a top tier playlist in the dining area which added to the experience.

I am very glad that I asked to visit this place thanks to the community. Considering the location and the places I walk through, I would never have known about it.

Little taste of home - Edit
It’s a little tricky to find this place because you have to go down a few alleyways, but once you’re there it feels like a warm oasis in the middle of the city. The owners were so friendly and welcoming. They speak both English and Japanese. The food was amazing! I normally find gluten free bread/baked goods to be very dry, but they have cracked the code here on how to keep everyone moist and delicious! It felt like western food with a Japanese influence. It was a perfect little taste of home after traveled around Japan for a while. Highly recommend!

Absolutely Adorable - Edit
It looks, sounds and tastes like some lost indie film from the 2000s. Absolutely loved it! The hosts are delightful and the food is immaculate! Almost a shame my waistline won't let me try all the cakes but the miso brownie was immaculate

One of the best vegan spots I’ve found in 10+ years here - Edit
Wow! This one is easy to miss but you really owe it to yourself to stop by. I’ve lived in Japan before and still visit often, found this while on a recent trip. It’s probably the best vegan cafe I’ve been to in Japan in a long time. They’ve apparently been doing pop-ups or selling at markets for years so I assume locals must know about them.
Read moreThey mentioned that the menu rotates so I don’t want to pin expectations on dishes, but their (gluten free) homemade bread and approach to food is amazing. The desserts case is also 100% dangerous because it’s all great - tofu cheesecake hits closer to non-vegan cheesecake than many I’ve found, the cookies are amazing, etc. The coffee is also good, and they clearly care about making good coffee (in a country that frankly still can’t always get it right).
Just go here, trust me.
Pros: Amazing staff, Incredible bread, Good vibes
folksaka
Wow! What a gracious and kind review! Thank you so much for coming in, and we hope to see you again!

Fabulous food and cafe - Edit
We went for an early lunch. I had an iced cafe latte with the reuben sandwich set. This came with a soup and the most delicious focaccia. The filling was tasty, the salad was nice and the soup was good too. My iced cafe latte was strong which I like but not too strong. My partner had the pumpkin bread French toast. I tried some and this was another amazing meal.
Read moreWe also bought a chocolate chip cookie to take away. Oh my goodness, this was perfect. Soft and delicious. Wow! Should have bought them all.
The cafe was gorgeous and the staff really kind. I wished we were staying longer as I would have visited again.
