01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

A distinctive feature of Sabo Higurashi is its pairing of a relaxed kissaten setting with a lunch selection that spans both Russian dishes and Japanese meal sets. The Russian lunch, which often rotates weekly, highlights slow-simmered dishes such as tender cabbage rolls, Russian-style soups, and beef stroganoff. Alongside these Western-style options, traditional Japanese sets are also on offer, letting diners tailor their midday meal to whatever they are in the mood for.

Tucked into a residential pocket of Minami-Tokiwadai, Itabashi, the interior carries a calm, unhurried air, furnished with carefully chosen tableware and tasteful decor. A terrace seating area adds an inviting outdoor option, making it an easy place to settle in for a quiet solo meal. After eating, guests can linger over a freshly brewed coffee or tea at their own pace.

Doors open from 9:00 in the morning, accommodating both breakfast and brunch visits. The cafe is closed on Mondays and Thursdays, and payment is cash only, so be sure to have coins or bills ready when stopping by.
