Asakusa Umegen is a traditional sweets (wagashi) shop & café in Nishi-Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo, about a 5-minute walk from Asakusa Station and very close to Kappabashi Kitchen Town. It is halal-certified, with no alcohol nor pork used, making it safe and welcoming for Muslim travellers. You should try their signature “kintsuba” (sweet bean paste treats) and roasted sweet potato confections, especially with a cup of matcha tea — simple, elegant sweets that reflect old-Tokyo flavour. The vibe is quiet and nostalgic, tucked into quaint back alleys, perfect for pausing your tour of Asakusa to rest and enjoy something sweet.
