Step into classic modernism at Café 1894, just 5 minutes from Tokyo Station. 

Set in a beautifully restored late 1890's bank, this cafe features soaring high ceilings, classic architecture, and a refined, retro atmosphere. 
We tried their homemade apple pie 🍎 (so good!), and their seasonal desserts inspired by the museum's exhibitions are also worth checking out—perfect for a cultured coffee break.☕️
