Located just under the elevated line of the Keio Inokashira Line "Shimokitazawa" station, sits a shopping complex that spans five whole blocks, divided into sections A through E. The space inside recreates the remarkable look and feel of a shopping streetscape so you can enjoy an easy stroll and shopping, grab a bite to eat and spend the day however you see best.

Once inside you’ll find about 20 shops, selling anything from apparel and food to living essentials. Among them are popular brands like TSUTAYA BOOKSTORE and glasses specialty shop Zoff, both of which got their start here in Shimokitazawa. Mikan Shimokita has also recently garnered additional buzz for the Library Counter and office, said to be a perfect mix of work and play.

Don't forget to check out the eclectic lineup of restaurants, all serving up unique Shimokitazawa vibes and a free-spirited flair. From Japan’s first fresh noodle pho at Chopsticks and the unbelievable burgers at Island Burgers to the delicious additive-free Ohagi or one-handed Warabi Mochi at OHAGI3, there’s plenty of one-of-a-kind flavors that you can only try here.
