Nestled in the vibrant heart of Harajuku, Sorama Coffee is a charming café that offers a delightful escape from the bustling streets outside. This quaint coffee shop stands out not only for its expertly crafted beverages but also for its unique fusion with a gallery space, creating an inviting atmosphere perfect for both coffee enthusiasts and art lovers alike.

Step inside to discover a cozy interior featuring random seating arrangements that encourage warmth and conversation. Each visit promises an opportunity to connect with fellow patrons over a shared love for quality coffee and art. As one customer noted, “Everything about it is delightful,” capturing the essence of what makes Sorama Coffee so special.

The café is particularly renowned for its matcha latte, which has garnered rave reviews for its rich flavor and frothy texture. As Denise Siy expressed, “Absolutely loved the matcha latte… I recommend sitting outside so you can admire the sky while sipping on your beverage.” It’s a perfect drink for those sunny days when you want to relax and soak in the ambiance of Harajuku.

Sorama Coffee also boasts a selection of desserts that won't disappoint. The coffee jelly parfait, praised by Rie Kurita for its “AMAZING” blend of textures and flavors, is a must-try. With creamy ice cream layered above and below the coffee jelly, each spoonful is a decadent experience that beautifully balances sweetness and richness. Long Le’s experience with their affogato, described as “twice the size of other places,” signifies that indulgence is standard here.

The single-person operation gives an intimate feel to each visit, with friendly staff like the “kind woman” who serves with a warm smile, enhancing the welcoming environment. Justin Shircliff noted the efficient service despite the café's smaller scale, ensuring that you're quickly on your way to enjoying your delicious iced Americano or dessert.

With its prime location just moments from Harajuku Station, Sorama Coffee is an excellent stop for those seeking respite from the loud surroundings of the area. WL Wang emphasized the “attentive and friendly service,” making it a serene spot to unwind before continuing your explorations. Whether you’re after a soothing drink, a delightful dessert, or simply a comfortable place to sit and enjoy as time passes, this café promises to deliver an experience that lingers long after you leave.

In a city awash with chain coffee shops, Sorama Coffee stands as a refreshing alternative – a place where passion for coffee and community come together in perfect harmony. Don’t miss your chance to visit this little gem the next time you find yourself in Tokyo!

Delicious matcha latte and nice atmosphere. Can take a bit longer because it’s a one man operation. Try to go there when it’s not crowded. Can highly recommend

A nice little place to get coffee, which shares a space with a gallery it seems. There’s random seating in a big-ish room with a couple of seats in front of the counter. There’s no pour over coffee, but they serve an americano amongst other things. It was good iced. I was most excited about the pudding, and it was quite delicious. Friendly staff and fast service.

I love this sweet little coffee shop. Everything about it is delightful, the coffee, the sweet seating where I had conversations with complete strangers and the lovely lady who served me coffee with a smile and a conversation about the great exhibit that was going on in the gallery space there. This is a much needed antidote to the chain coffee shops that seem to be everywhere.

Absolutely loved the matcha latte I'm definitely going to come back to try the cafe latte next! I also want to thank the kind woman who served me, she had a lovely smile and was very friendly I also love the atmosphere of the place with the big open window. If the weather is nice, I recommend sitting outside so you can admire the sky while sipping on your beverage

Affogato was yummy. It’s twice the size of other places. 2 scoops of ice cream and probably double shot. It was so good I forgot to take the before pix.

Coffee jelly parfait Marco Polo Set 1010yen My third visit here and first time trying her dessert! I was always interested and finally was able to try her coffee parfait with coffee granite, coffee jelly, and ice cream. It was AMAZING!! A lot of different texture and the ice cream was separated above and under the coffee jelly for the taste and aesthetic…and I really liked the flavor of granite Powder sugar and cocoa powder on top was also adding more variations in the flavor. The smell of Marco Polo was also so good and satisfying There are so many more things to try and can’t wait for the next one!!

An incredible small business located near Harajuku Station! The coffee is absolutely delightful, with oat milk available as a great alternative. The staff are exceptionally kind, always welcoming guests with warm smiles. Visiting this shop was such a joy – a truly wonderful experience!
