All Reviews of iki ESPRESSO

Why are there so few reviews?
I really love this place.
1. Space and decor style (Industrial & Organic Harmony)
A combination of industrial style and warmth: The space retains its original concrete walls, beams, columns, and exposed pipes, creating a clean, modern industrial feel. At the same time, plenty of warm wooden tables and chairs, booth seating, and warm-toned indirect lighting soften the cold, hard feel of the concrete.
Greenery throughout: Hanging planters and small green potted plants on the tables not only bring natural vitality to the space, but also create a soothing, relaxing atmosphere.
Semi-open layout and high ceilings: Folding glass doors open to the outside at the entrance, along with counter-height seating (Take Away area), bringing natural light indoors. The dine-in area is spacious, with enough room between tables to feel relaxed and not crowded.
2. Food highlights: Classic Australian and New Zealand-style brunch (Brunch Culture)
Eggs Benedict / Salmon Benedict Toast (Photo 2):
The base is a firm, tangy natural sourdough or European-style bread topped with sautéed spinach and smoked salmon.
It is topped with poached eggs and a generous amount of golden hollandaise sauce, broiled until lightly browned, then finished with microgreens.
Visually, it has plenty of layers and appealing colors, making it a classic example of upscale Australian and New Zealand-style brunch.
3. Coffee and drink characteristics (Specialty Coffee)
Australian and New Zealand coffee menu ():
The menu includes classic Australian and New Zealand coffee options such as Flat White, Long Black, Espresso, and Cold Brew.
Drink details and brand impression ():
They offer professionally extracted cold brew/ice-drip coffee or iced black coffee, served with a simple, stylish custom sleeve printed with the “iki ESPRESSO” logo.
4. Summary: Why do I like it so much?
iki ESPRESSO successfully combines Kiyosumi-Shirakawa's distinctive slow-paced cultural atmosphere with the casual comfort of Australian and New Zealand cafés. Whether it's the refined, delicious food, the high-quality coffee, or the space's blend of industrial aesthetics and cozy greenery, everything makes you want to spend a comfortable, leisurely afternoon here.

I ordered the eggs benedict and it was delicious! The coffee was great, too. The dining atmosphere is cozy and not noisy at all.
