Tucked away in an alleyway in the busy Harajuku, Cafe Chairo is a cozy, fully vegan Japanese cafe offers unique Japanese desserts with Instagrammable interior and traditional floor seating.
They specialiee in teas and unique Japanese-inspired sweets like mochi, muffins, and more. I tried the matcha red bean muffin which is as photogenic as it is tasty. They have an English menu and English-speaking staff. It's a small, intimate space, so it might not be ideal for groups or families with young children due to the limited seating and floor arrangement.
Be sure to say hi to the resident cat, Koyane-chan, if you visit. But also keep in mind that there is a fish tank, which is not expected for a vegan cafe.
