Canal Cafe
What the experts agree on
Canal Cafe's waterside terrace overlooking Edo Castle's old moat is Tokyo's most atmospheric al fresco spot, especially magical at night or during sakura season. Midrange Italian with a uniquely romantic setting.
“There aren't many al fresco cafés in Tokyo that can rival the atmosphere of this waterside spot in Iidabashi.”
– Time Out
Rough Guide "This is a surprisingly tranquil and appealing waterside spot, particularly romantic at night when the old clapperboard boathouses sparkle with fairy lights, or during the blossom-heavy sakura season."
Lonely Planet "TY Harbor in Shinagawa, Spring Valley Brewery in Daikanyama, and Canal Café in Iidabashi, are among many with eclectic menus and outdoor terraces"
Independent "Finish or start your visit outside the station with tea and dessert at Canal Cafe's outdoor terrace on the old moat of Edo Castle, and rent a rowing boat to see the district from the water"
