ROCA Oshiage

From single-origin beans releasing sweet, tangy aromas the moment they are ground to blends bursting with fresh fruit notes, the coffee counter at ROCA Oshiage offers an engaging selection to explore. Hand-dripped pour-overs range from robust dark roasts to bright, easy-drinking light roasts, allowing guests to ask staff about each bean's profile and find a cup suited to their palate. Smooth cafe lattes with velvety microfoam and clean, refreshing cold brew round out the lineup, offering an approachable experience even for those who rarely drink specialty coffee.

Opening its doors at 8:00 in the morning, the cafe also prepares light meals designed to pair well with its drinks. A ham and cheese sandwich made with bread sourced from a Hikifune bakery combines gentle saltiness from the ham with rich cheese, making an effortless choice for breakfast or a light lunch. For something sweet, the red bean paste and butter sandwich makes a satisfying match with a fruity light roast.

A specialty sweet that draws regular praise is the tiramisu, infused with the rich bitterness and aroma of espresso. Generously portioned yet pleasantly light, it pairs naturally with an aromatic drip coffee for a relaxing break.
