On Tuesday 29th August 2017, Sarutahiko Coffee and TiKiTaKa ICE CREAM opened on the 1st floor of LUMINE Shinjuku 1. This is the first Sarutahiko Coffee that manages an ice cream shop. Here, the TiKiTaKa ICE CREAM menu will be trialled alongside Sarutahiko’s daily menu.
Not only will the individual sale of coffee and ice cream take place here side by side, but coffee floats from TiKiTaKa ICE CREAM will be served up on top of Sarutahiko Coffees – these are just a few examples of the many new purchases you can make here! This is something that a true Sarutahiko Coffee fan must try.
Something loved by adults, by those who come alone, and something that surpasses the standard of ice cream – this was the initial concept from which TiKiTaKa ICE CREAM was born. In overseas countries, the streets are lined up with many ice cream shops, where children and parents alike both take a moment to fill their cheeks with delicious flavours. Likewise, a place like this has been created in Japan. Now parents and children have a cosy spot to bond over delicious ice cream and coffee.
The interior has also been carefully designed. Just take a look at the shop window and you’ll see beakers and siphons arranged together to make a coffee making display. The ingredients used are carefully chosen to make the perfect ice creams. The main counter is also curved as if a scoop has been taken out of it!
There are 16 varieties of ice cream and the flavours keep on changing! No matter how many times you visit, you will always encounter brand new flavours each time – how exciting! This is Sarutahiko Coffee’s first ever ice cream shop so please enjoy the carefully prepared treats and ice cream collaboration!

Starting October 10, the popular ice cream sandwich Biscuit Sandwich will begin a collaboration with the popular anime and manga series Spy x Family. The second season began on October 1. The collaboration will introduce limited-edition packaging in three styles featuring close-ups of the three main characters–Loid, Yor, and Anya. Two of the designs were newly drawn for this collaboration.
While the main characters are featured on the front, the back shows Franky, Becky, and Henry Henderson. Customers will also want to search for a hidden Anya somewhere on the packaging. Along with this special packaging, three different campaigns will be underway featuring an original QUO card, a USB featuring original voice recordings, and a cooler bag shaped like the penguin that appears in the series. For those snagging the USB, you’ll be able to hear Anya begging for ice cream and some other cute lines. This USB will be delivered in a case made to look like an ice cream sandwich, and fans won’t want to miss out on their chance to add it to their collection! Information
