Since the Meiji era, Ginza has developed as a symbol of Japan's modernization.

Throughout the Showa era, coffee shops sprang up all over Ginza, and it became a gathering place for intellectuals and artists.

Modern Ginza is a city where long-established establishments that preserve tradition coexist with new innovative establishments. Even when it comes to coffee, there is a wide range of options to enjoy, from coffee shops that use siphon-style brewing to roasteries that specialize in single-origin coffee.
