Rikka Fika is a communal cafe in East Village built around the idea of being an oasis where anyone can easily enjoy a seriously good coffee experience, in a room filled with the gentle sunlight of an early summer day. It works as a multi roaster cafe, with a rotating pour over and bean menu curated from international specialty roasters.

A concise menu of carefully crafted coffee and matcha drinks is served alongside small batch baked goods made in house from fresh, seasonal ingredients. The online shop sells a blend called Wildflowers, ceremonial matcha, hojicha and oolong teas, and a monthly subscription delivers coffee to the door. The cafe is open Tuesday to Sunday from eight in the morning until three in the afternoon.
