Cosma

One of Cosma’s appeals is that it has a different feel by day and by night. Visitors have described the coffee served during a limited-time daytime opening as “authentic”.

The daytime coffee service was limited, so check in advance whether it is available when you plan to visit. In the evening, the drinks include wine and shochu, as well as beer and spirits, making it an option for a night centred on drinks.

The interior of this Honmachi, Shibuya City, bar is compact: one visitor reported that the space, including the kitchen, is about eight tatami mats in size. It may suit anyone looking to settle in for a drink alone. Opening hours vary, with some days running from daytime into the evening and others adding evening service. As the hours are split into separate periods, it is worth checking the schedule for the day before setting out.
