01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

The dish that first catches the eye at Uzura is its nori toast: roasted seaweed sandwiched between slices of bread, finished with butter and soy sauce. The menu says it was taught to the café by a well-known coffee shop in Kanda, Tokyo, making it a distinctive alternative to familiar toast. One diner said the unusual combination came as a surprise. Another found the toast more substantial than its appearance suggested, and recalled feeling full as they ate.

There are other toast options, too: cinnamon toast, described as crisp with a fragrant cinnamon aroma; Ogura toast generously topped with sweet red beans and butter; and nori toast with cheese. There are choices for a lighter bite or a sweeter treat. One customer who ordered coffee noted its clean finish and easy-drinking character. A coffee with nori toast makes a light snack, while Ogura toast offers a sweeter pause; choosing a pairing is part of the appeal.

For a more substantial meal, consider the daily lunch, which comes with a main dish, two side dishes, rice, miso soup, pickles and a drink. A larger serving of rice is free, and a refill costs 150 yen. Drinks include coffee, tea and orange juice. One visitor praised a lunch for its generous amount of vegetables and included drink, and reported that it cost 1,000 yen including tax as of 2025/5. Another diner had a simmered hamburger steak on a different day, making lunch an option for those who enjoy seeing what the daily menu brings.

For something sweet, there is zenzai, a sweet red bean soup served with mochi. One diner described the beans as light in flavour and noted that the mochi had been grilled before it was added. From toast and coffee to lunch and a post-meal sweet, Uzura offers different ways to spend time over a meal.
