The staff at Masaya Bicycle Works are passionate about three things: high-end bicycles, specialty coffee and tasty cafe food. So it’s no surprise to find hip cafes right inside both Masaya stores. 5 Cafe, located next door to Chihaya Station, is a convenient pit stop on the way to Shikanoshima and the up-and-coming Island City neighborhood. The bagels, biscotti and muffins are handmade daily from select natural ingredients. For lunch, try the BLT (¥442) with thick-cut bacon. Or stop by for breakfast and a cappuccino, if your weekend plans are taking you eastward.
Menu:
Latte ¥480, cold brew coffee ¥518, coffee jelly float ¥450 (summer only), bagel ¥183~, green curry ¥810, soft-serve ice cream ¥280
