Owner and barista, Shimoji-san, runs this cute and poky coffee stand, but the coffee is anything but cute.

Expect lattes, drip coffee, and all the usual culprits (chai also available for non-caffeine drinkers).

For 30 years, Toshin has been providing Nishi-Shinjuku locals with their fruit and vegetables. Originally in a different nearby location, they moved several years ago to attract more on-foot traffic.
