There are lots of Japan-exclusive items and Tokyo-themed products inside. The Pick a Brick wall is especially satisfying, and the cheerful vibe—with colorful LEGO displays everywhere—makes it really easy to go a little overboard.

TOKYO GIFT PALETTE
The "Tokyo Gift Palette" is located just outside the "Yaesu North Exit ticket gate" of Tokyo Station. This area, which occupies a corner of "First Avenue Tokyo Station", features a total of 39 brands, including exclusive Japanese and Western confectioneries as ideal as gifts for loved ones and souvenirs of Tokyo, limited edition sweets available only here, special bento boxes and side dishes, and cafes where you can spend time in comfort. Of these, 24 are new brands, new business categories, or brands that are opening at Tokyo Station for the first time, attracting much attention.
The overall decor is new and beautiful, and every dessert display is incredibly refined. Just looking at them makes it way too easy to go overboard. It’s basically heaven for dessert lovers.

Takenoko no Sato
Takenoko no Sato is one of the signature products of Meiji Co., Ltd. (hereafter, Meiji). Following the huge success of its sister product Kinoko no Yama, it was developed as the second product in the series with a completely different concept. Since its launch in 1979, it has remained a long-selling favorite with a history of more than 45 years.
Compared to the mushroom-shaped one, I personally like Takenoko no Sato more. The cookie is flakier, and the chocolate sweetness is smoother too 🥰

GRANSTA YAEKITA
When you come out of Tokyo Station’s Yaesu north exit, you will be in the huge eatery mall, GRANSTA YAEKITA. Each of three floors has its characteristic - “Kurobei Yokocho (B1)” in the classic adult air with quality restaurants, “Yaekita Shokudo (1F)“ in a casual setting with a restaurant produced by a food magazine, udon noodles with a unique in-store soup, and other delights, and “Kitamachi Sakaba (2F)” with a beer hall and Japanese pubs great for a big or small group.
The wooden decor and warm lighting feel really tasteful. It has that late-night Tokyo diner kind of vibe.
