This shopping street runs north to south and is just a few minutes’ walk from the west exit of Kita-Senju Station. It’s lined with lots of restaurants and prepared food shops.
I keep coming back to Mamekokoro, the coffee bean shop. I also recommend the Don Remy outlet for cupcakes!

Located in the heart of Senjujuku, a post town established along the former Nikko Kaido in the early Edo period, this shopping street made a fresh start in November 2025 when four shopping streets unified their names as Senjujuku Shopping Street.
The atmosphere of a post town that flourished as a transportation hub coexists with a modern townscape, with 70 diverse shops ranging from long-established stores to variety shops, cafes, and restaurants. As you take a stroll, you can enjoy the historic streetscape.
While carrying on the warm downtown spirit and merchant pride of old Tokyo, the area has also seen an increase in new shops and modern stores aimed at younger visitors, creating a wonderful balance of retro charm and fresh appeal. Unique events such as Yakiin Meguri, where special menu items are branded with custom marks, are also held regularly, and the lively streetscape is drawing attention not only from visitors in Japan but also from travelers from overseas.
