Glorious Chain Cafe in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan

Great burgers and fries and a good selection of wine

Glorious Chain Cafe in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan

Strangely I had been to the cocoti building several times over the past few years to do some shopping or have a coffee with friends in the 347 Cafe upstairs though had never noticed the Glorious Chain Cafe right next to the building’s entrance.

In retrospect I really wish I had noticed it sooner as while the 347 Cafe has a trendier atmosphere, Glorious Cafe Chain has vastly superior food with excellent value for money and a fast, hassle free, free wi-fi internet.

The vibe is very Western with a kind of Hard Rock Cafe feel to it (probably a result of it being owned by Diesel) but thankfully without the smoking. The menu consists of rather large servings of typical American fast food staples such as burgers and fries with a main course and drink set setting you back around 1000 yen.

The staff are as friendly as they are good looking and thankfully due to the majority of the Shibuya crowd being drawn to the outdoor pool seating upstairs at the 347 Cafe, this place remains for the most part fairly empty, even during the lunch time rush making it a very convenient place to meet up with friends, relax during a day of shopping or simply check some email.

  1. The atmosphere was chill, relaxed and just what the above review described.

    The burger I got was good, but the thinness of the patty was disappointing. Why so thin? If I’m getting a burger, I want a big, meaty burger. Don’t hold back. It’s not like I’m having a diet burger.

    If the patty were double the thickness, it would have been perfect. The price, in the 1,200-1,500 yen range, was a little high, though. It’s just a burger and fries!
