JR Chuo-Sobu Line, Nishi-Ogikubo Station South Exit is a 5-minute walk away. Outside, there are two counter seats and bench seats. Inside, there are two counter seats in the front and three two-person table seats in the back. You order and pay at the register first, then you can sit wherever you like and your order will be brought to you when it's ready. The indoor seating is limited to 60 minutes. On weekdays at 10:30am, there was one group. Matcha pudding (530 yen) is not available for takeout. At first glance, it looks like it has two layers of matcha and milk pudding, but upon closer inspection, it actually has three layers. A smooth layer of matcha, a creamy layer of milk and cream, and a layer of matcha on top. The rich matcha and sweet milk blend together, creating a taste similar to a matcha latte. Although I usually don't order the same thing twice, this pudding is an exception! With each bite, you'll be captivated by its deliciousness. White bean matcha toast (600 yen) is a toast topped with matcha powder, which is the raw material for matcha, and white bean paste. The outside of the toast is crispy, while the inside is chewy. The bread itself is delicious. The toast is soaked in butter, creating a perfect balance of salty butter and sweet white bean paste, making the combination irresistible. Matcha (560 yen) is carefully prepared upon ordering, with a smooth and creamy foam texture that is easy to drink. It lacks the strong bitterness and astringency typical of matcha, making it very enjoyable to drink.

I visited Atsuwaya around 2 pm on a Saturday before going. There were two groups of customers in the eat-in area, but I was seated without any wait. The matcha latte was not too sweet and delicious, but it felt a little thin. The matcha pudding was divided into three layers, with the top matcha layer having a creamy texture and tasting delicious.

Saten Japanesetea in Nishi-Ogikubo A Japanese tea stand that blends into daily life. I had the white bean paste tea toast and ice matcha. The ground tea is made from tea leaves that are used to make matcha, giving it a fragrant, roasted aroma with a unique seaweed-like scent that spreads throughout your mouth! The chewy toast with the elegant sweetness of white bean paste is a combination that you can eat as many as you want, maybe 3 is the limit. The retro atmosphere inside the store, with warm lighting, creates a calming space. I still want to try hojicha, green tea, and bean butter toast. I want to try more things to eat and drink. It is recommended to go early in the morning, then have a stylish lunch at organ! Why are there so many wonderful shops here in Nishi-Ogikubo? It's a great place~ I want to go again soon.

Saten Japanese Tea in Nishi-Ogikubo A place where you can enjoy various ways of Japanese tea and flavors I visited a Japanese tea stand called Saten in Nishi-Ogikubo. I had a delicious white bean paste toast and ice matcha. The roasted tea leaves used for matcha had a fragrant, toasted aroma with a unique seaweed-like scent spreading in my mouth. The combination of chewy toast and the elegant sweetness of white bean paste was so good that I could eat many of them. The retro atmosphere inside the shop with warm lighting created a calming space. I tried hojicha, green tea, and anko butter toast and I still want to try more drinks and food.

I had a matcha print ice coffee. The matcha pudding was creamy and delicious. It was a weekday afternoon and the place was quiet with only 1 or 2 groups. The atmosphere was stylish. They also had other matcha drinks, meals, and desserts, so I would like to try them next time.

Matcha sweets & meals, and drinks specialty cafe. The freshly brewed matcha latte has an amazing aroma, and when mixed with milk, it becomes smooth and the combination is perfect. Personally, I really liked the matcha pudding for its perfect balance of bitterness and milkiness. 🍵Genovese toast with tea leaves 🍮Matcha pudding 🍵Matcha latte 🍹Saten's melon soda with ice (yogurt) ==================== Saten ⏰Hours: 10:00-19:00 🚫Closed: No regular holidays *For accurate business hours, please check @saten_jp. ==================== Check out other cafes in the same area by clicking on the tags below. #CafeJourneySuginami #CafeJourneyNishiogikubo #Saten #MatchaSweets #JapaneseTeaCafe #Matcha #JapaneseTea #MatchaLovers #Nishiogikubo #NishiogikuboCafe #TokyoCafe #SuginamiCafe #ChuoLineCafe #NishiogikuboSweets #TokyoSweets #SuginamiSweets #ChuoLineSweets #NishiogikuboMorning #NishiogikuboLunch #NishiogikuboGourmet #NishiogikuboTakeout #ChuoLineGourmet #LikeForLike #CafeHopping #CafeDate

Instagram-worthy cafe. The menu using matcha is surprisingly authentic and delicious. The matcha latte is not too sweet, which is nice. The interior of the cafe is cozy but small, so it's more of a place to quickly grab a drink, take some photos, and then leave.

I had post-meal tea at a shop called "saten japanese tea". The concept is to offer Japanese tea, such as matcha, in a new style. The shop is so pleasant that it makes you feel uncomfortable at first. With a layout resembling a traditional house, the glass sliding doors that serve as walls, entrances, and windows are fully open, blurring the boundaries between inside and outside. The area in front of the tea-making counter has a feel of a traditional earthen floor, and the inside of the shop feels like a veranda. On this pleasantly overcast day, the gently dry air flow soothes the mind. I ordered a cold matcha latte. The matcha powder is whisked with hot water in a bowl placed on an electronic scale. Milk is poured into a glass with ice. The matcha is then added to complete the drink. The whole process unfolds casually and naturally, without any sense of urgency, which is quite pleasant. As I sip the drink slowly, I am captivated by the vivid green aroma when pouring the matcha into the glass. I first taste the milk through the straw. It's sweet, rich, and smooth. Then, I taste the matcha, which is bitter, astringent, and fragrant. As the bitterness subsides, a mellow umami flavor emerges from the tongue. Letting it rest for a while, the matcha and milk begin to blend on their own. And it's amazing. Despite not adding sugar or syrup, I can taste sweetness. The combination of milk's creaminess with matcha's bitterness and umami creates a perceived sweetness. As the ratio of matcha increases, the sweetness gives way to bitterness, and the lingering umami intensifies. It's fascinating... with each sip, there's a new taste discovery. I thoroughly enjoyed taking my time with it. What a delightful shop. It's so nice that it almost makes me want to take the train just to come here... I overheard the staff mentioning that the hojicha tonic tastes like craft cola. I must try that next time, I thought as I left the shop.

This matcha pudding is a bit different from others. Firstly, the subtle sweetness is well-balanced. I was expecting it to be sweeter based on the clientele, but as expected from Nishi-Ogikubo. The matcha flavor doesn't feel forced and is naturally enjoyable, showing high quality. The hojicha latte is delicious as well. The faint aroma of hojicha is irresistible. This tea shop is somewhere I would want to come back to again and again. Thank you for the meal~

There are many different types of roasted green tea drinks, but the subtle taste of this stem roasted green tea is quite interesting. I sometimes have it as a latte, but the gentle flavor of the mild roasted green tea is wonderful. I had it at the counter and it was fun to see it being made right in front of me. The staff is laid-back and doesn't panic even when customers keep coming in, which is great. Rushing through the process for a few seconds won't make a big difference, and the quality of the product will suffer. It's amazing to see such a young person calmly and efficiently handling everything! I will definitely visit this place again. There are so many good restaurants here that it's hard to leave Nishi-Ogikubo. Thank you for the meal!

Saten @ Nishi-Ogikubo (Suginami-ku, Tokyo) Matcha pudding ¥530 Shiroan Tencha Toast ¥600 Matcha Latte (ICE) ¥640 Score 4.1/5 ★★★★☆ - Matcha Pudding This is incredibly delicious!! A slightly sweet milk pudding with a strong bitterness, and a hint of sweetness added on top. The harmony of rich matcha sauce is truly amazing! This is a must-order! - Shiroan Tencha Toast Also delicious! The toast size is small. The bread is fluffy and moist. The bitterness of tencha, and some salty flavor, maybe seaweed? But the saltiness mixes perfectly with the not too sweet white bean paste. This is also excellent! - Matcha Latte The special feature of this is, it's not sweet at all! You can taste the strong bitterness of matcha. Honestly, green tea also looks delicious, so I was thinking, "Ah, I should have just ordered regular green tea." But since this shop carefully filters the tea leaves in front of you, it's a true tea shop. So, I think the green tea must be delicious too! For those who visit, I recommend ordering regular green tea. The Matcha Latte, on the other hand, might be a bit of a letdown if you imagine a sweet regular Matcha Latte. So, be aware of that. - Other Thursday, after 3:00 PM, there was a short wait, and it seemed like the indoor seats were full by the time of the next customer. It can get quite crowded on weekends. #saten #NishiOgikuboCafe #NishiOgikuboTeaShop

【Saten】Matcha Pudding Matcha Latte (Iced) ¥1170 5 minutes walk from Nishi-Ogikubo Station Closed on: None ----- Saturday Sweets ◝( '꒳' *)◜ I've been obsessed with Matcha Pino lately, craving matcha sweets, so I came to this shop. I ordered the matcha pudding and also a matcha latte. The service was quick, and I didn't have to wait long after ordering. The matcha pudding has a three-layer structure with a creamy matcha sauce, whipped cream, and a firm milk pudding. The contrast between the green and white layers looks beautiful, making the dessert appetizing from the appearance alone. The matcha sauce has a delicious matcha flavor, while the milk pudding at the bottom is firm and offers a sweet milky taste. The combination of the creamy matcha sauce, the firm milk pudding, the bittersweetness of matcha, and the sweet flavor of milk is excellent and not too heavy, making it easy to eat a lot. The matcha latte had a strong matcha flavor and was deliciously mellow with milk. The matcha sweets were delicious. Highly recommended. Thank you for the meal. m(_ _)m

I visited a shop called Saten in Nishi-Ogikubo that I had been curious about before. I ordered the Hiranosono (500 yen) and the matcha pudding (530 yen). I had always been curious about this shop as I passed by it, but I never went in. I thought it was a coffee shop, but it turned out to be a Japanese tea specialty store. I decided to stop by because they also offer buttered toast and pudding. I visited around 2 pm on a weekday and was seated right away. There were customers working on their laptops and couples leisurely enjoying their time. At the counter, there were gluten-free baked goods with lemon and camel motifs. This time, I ordered the matcha pudding. It had a two-layered structure with matcha sauce and white pudding, which looked refreshing and beautiful. I enjoyed it with Japanese tea, savoring the traditional Japanese taste. It was delicious as always. Thank you for the meal.

As it gradually gets warmer, I ordered an ice menu for the first time at this shop. I tried the limited-time matcha lemon cider. I was worried about the sweetness, but the taste was very refreshing with the bitterness of matcha. And today, as a treat, I also had the matcha pudding. It was really to my liking!! It was similar to panna cotta... There are not many shops in Tokyo where you can truly enjoy the taste of matcha, so I would like to visit this shop even if it's a bit far.

The cafe has a lovely atmosphere where you can enjoy matcha. I tried a matcha drink and it was delicious, with a nice balance of matcha flavor and refreshing milk. It made me want to come back again. The deliciousness made me want to gulp it down, but I also wanted to savor it slowly. It perfectly captures the charm of Nishi-Ogikubo.

There are still beautiful cherry blossom spots in Tokyo. Finally, a clear blue sky and cherry blossoms. The items I received were as follows: - Cherry Blossom Anko Mascarpone Toast 600 yen - Hojicha Latte 580 yen The toast is limited to this season. It is topped with mascarpone, cherry blossom anko, and pickled cherry blossoms on a moist and fine-textured bread. The visual presentation is great, and it tastes delicious. The hojicha latte has a comforting flavor. The baked goods are from "Lemon to Rakuda" in Shizuoka. I will visit again.

I was looking forward to enjoying a matcha latte at this matcha shop, but to my surprise, the highlight was the red bean butter toast! The toast was crispy, fluffy, and incredibly delicious, making me not want to share with the person I was with. The quality was so good that I wanted to keep it all to myself. There were books about toast displayed in the shop, so it seems like they were originally famous for their toast. I was not aware of this, but it was a pleasant surprise. I definitely want to go back again.

I found a delicious matcha pudding at a cafe that feels like a hidden gem in Nishi-Ogikubo while walking my dog. The terrace is dog-friendly, so I ordered an iced cafe latte and matcha pudding. The matcha had a rich flavor and the pudding was sweet and delicious. The cafe latte had a strong taste that I enjoyed. I would like to visit again.

I visited a Japanese tea specialty cafe with an open atmosphere right by the south exit of Nishi-Ogikubo Station for the first time. I tried the deep-steamed tea from Hiranoen in Kakegawa City, Shizuoka Prefecture. It had a refreshing umami taste and a clean aftertaste, which was very comforting. I also had their popular dessert, matcha pudding. It was a blissful moment.

I visited Saten Japanese Tea in Nishi-Ogikubo and tried two items: Matcha Latte (iced) for 600 yen and Matcha Pudding for 530 yen. This café is run by a "tea-rista" who serves matcha, hojicha, and Japanese tea. The atmosphere is calming and it has become my favorite café. I actually knew about this place before coming to Nishi-Ogikubo, as it is run by someone I know. The Matcha Latte had a beautiful green and white layer, while the Matcha Pudding had a similarly beautiful green and white layer. Both were not too sweet, making this set highly recommended. The matcha is freshly brewed on the spot, spreading a wonderful aroma. The Matcha Pudding, which appears to have two layers, actually has three layers with a rich matcha portion and a lovely ratio of green to white. You can definitely feel the matcha flavor. I also received a complimentary Anko Butter Toast, which was delicious with a harmonious blend of buttery saltiness and sweet red bean paste. I will definitely be back to try more dishes in the future.

The interior of the shop was stylish and had a welcoming atmosphere for solo customers. They made matcha right in front of you and even had latte art, which was very cute. The matcha pudding had a perfect balance of matcha bitterness and pudding sweetness, making it very delicious. I definitely want to go eat there again!!!
