ecute Shinagawa

Step inside the central gate area of JR Shinagawa Station to find the shopping zone "ecute Shinagawa". This expansive, 2-floor zone is home to some 100 different shops. The store types range from fashion and food to daily goods, souvenirs and so much more to keep you on your toes.

One spot drawing crowds from all across the globe is Atelier Ukai, a boutique seller of cookie tins packed so sweet they almost look like jewelry boxes. Another is KASHO SANZEN, the Tokyo-exclusive shop selling esteemed Sendai confections like Hagi no Tsuki, or Jiyugaoka Hachi no Ie, the spot for Japanese confections that are all about the four seasons.

After shopping for souvenirs, step in and indulge in the delectable feast of tastes that await. Western-style eatery Tsubame Grill DELI, established in 1930, is famous for its succulent Hamburg steak. Not to mention Shinagawa Hioki, a popular Japanese dining spot managed by long-loved Shinagawa Station pub for some 27 years. Swing by for combo sets during the day and delicate, small plates that pair perfectly with beer.
