Masterpiece Cafe

When you first enter Lion Cafe in Tokyo's Shibuya district, the first thing you will notice is that the seating is all facing one direction - towards the 2 gigantic speakers on the wall. This peculiar setup is a staple of one of the city's few remaining 'meikyoku kissa', or masterpiece cafes.

At this particular cafe, the ambiance is designed to make you simply enjoy the classical music, have a drink, and relax. Here, socializing is discouraged and talking on phones is forbidden. If you want a quick escape from the hustle and bustle in the city, then make sure you make a stop at this unique masterpiece cafe. We loved it, and is definitely becoming increasingly popular with both locals and tourists!
