サウダーヂな東京
Yoyogi, Tokyo
Saudade Tokyo (サウダーヂな東京) is a tucked-away listening room in Yoyogi where the melancholy of its Portuguese name meets Tokyo's restless energy—think of a snug kissaten that feels like a friend's living room crossed with a vinyl museum. Located on a quiet side street near Yoyogi, the space is low-lit and wood-paneled, shelves heavy with records and a turntable always warm, so evenings drift by to a carefully curated mix of bossa nova, jazz, Japanese city pop and rare grooves; the owner treats each set like a story, introducing new discoveries and old favorites with a gentle, conversational authority. It's the sort of place that rewards slowing down: sit at the counter with a hand-brewed coffee or a thoughtful cocktail, listen closely, and you'll hear a crowd of locals and travelers falling quiet in the same moment. Live listening sessions and occasional intimate performances keep the programming fresh without losing the venue's reflective vibe, making Saudade Tokyo a must-visit for anyone who wants an authentic, music-first night out in this leafy slice of Tokyo.
