    It's a great idea. There are merchants in east asia that are doing just that. Books as the main feature and food & drink as a side offering. Society needs to read more books of all types. Love the idea.

    Good spot to get Hokusai artwork too. I went on a cold rainy day and saw barely anyone there on my last trip. March can be tricky but had jimbocho to myself 😂

    As a book lover, I always love seeing content about Jimbocho. Especially the book house cafe looks like a nice place to grab a bite to eat and relax.

    Jimbocho seems like a heavenly place for a book worm and impulsive book buyer like me. The thought of finding rare out of print mangas and books in the flesh intrigue me :] :]

    i'm here for any kind of bookstore culture, even the ones with books i can't read 😂

    also that grilled duck at the last place looked soooooo good
