this place has a very cool vibe, with nice vinyl records playing and a long collection to browse through. they offer coffee, food, and cheesecake sets. the coffee was ok, the cheesecake was pretty good but the portion was very small. the menu is completely in japanese, so be prepared to translate everything. besides that, all very nice

Here’s a polished Google review version: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I found this place by pure luck and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered a pasta dish, and it was incredibly refreshing and light - nothing like the pasta I’m used to in Europe. The restaurant is small but cozy, with a great atmosphere and an excellent selection of music playing from vinyl records. The staff were very friendly and helpful, taking the time to explain the menu in English, which I really appreciated. Overall, a wonderful dining experience that I would happily recommend to anyone looking for something a little different and small

A pilgrimage site for music lovers in Shimokitazawa! Owned by the legendary Keiichi Sokabe (Sunny Day Service), City Country City is more than just a cafe—it's a soulful blend of curated vinyl, live spirit, and great coffee. You can feel Sokabe-san’s musical DNA in every corner. A must-visit if you want to experience the true 'Shimokita' sound.

Atmosphere is relaxing, with the occasion pop music. Limited seating, so I didn’t want to stay too long. Menu is limited. I had cream gnocchi, and it was average. The gnocchi is a bit sour and starchy, but not raw. The sauce was good at first, but a lot of cream that it overwhelmed and became too salty. If you are here for a gentrified moment, it is okay. If you are here for the food, I think there are other options. It does pick up during weekends, so if you really really want to get in, come early.
