Gin no Saji

In the quiet residential neighbourhood of Momoi, Suginami, 銀の匙 is a warm, welcoming café where a cup of coffee at the table makes it easy to unwind. The interior has a nostalgic, homely feel, making it a comfortable place to drop in and spend some time on your own.

The menu brings together the familiar appeal of a traditional Japanese café. Alongside mealtime favourites such as spaghetti Napolitan, beef curry and pilaf, there are ginger pork and an onigiri set—satisfying options for lunch when you want something substantial. You can also order a salad with the Napolitan or curry, a simple but thoughtful touch.

For a lighter bite, toast and sandwiches are well worth a look. The bread options range from buttered toast to ham and egg toast, plus fragrant pizza toast and sandwiches such as egg or mixed, with a choice of fillings for the egg sandwich. There is also a flexible morning-service set, available at any time, pairing toast with a small salad and a choice of coffee or tea.

There is plenty to choose from for a leisurely café drink, too. Options include a clean-tasting blended coffee or iced coffee, mellow café au lait, royal milk tea, Earl Grey and brandy tea. Whether it is a coffee float topped with cold ice cream, a vivid cream soda, a cheesecake set, or handmade cookies, lingering over something sweet is another pleasure here.

Payment is cash only, so it is a good idea to bring cash when you visit. Whether you are taking a break during a walk or simply looking for a quiet pause, 銀の匙 offers a warm space woven into the everyday life of the neighbourhood.
