Harajuku Ikea is the first central-Tokyo branch of the Swedish retailer, and in place of the usual cafeteria they run a popular mini-cafe where you can order soft tunnbrod (Polar bread) open-faced sandwiches. These come in sixteen varieties, both sweet (caramel-nut; chocolate-berry) and savory (cheese and vegetable sausage; salmon). They're priced from Y150-500 each, depending on the toppings.

They also stock some imported foods, though not as many as their suburban superstores carry. Freezer cabinets are scattered around the shop's second floor, with frozen-food favorites such as Swedish meatballs, salmon filets and smoked salmon, and tempting dessert items.

Fruit jams, dill crispbread, ground coffee and packs of sliced Emmental and Cheddar cheeses are among the most popular non-frozen foods on offer. Down on the ground floor is a bakery area serving coffee and freshly made croissants and other pastries to go. Next to it is a food section selling a wide assortment of candy bars and soft drinks.
