    Grander and better than Matsuya next door. More variety and more things to see and buy. Also better ambience and quality. All the typical departments are here, and more

    We were taken to the food hall by our guide during our day exploring Tokyo. It's an amazing place, full of all sorts of beautifull, appetising food. A must-see!

    This very recent trip to Tokyo where I have visited several times over the past 52 years was my first solo trip. It was well planned by me since I believe it’s easier to have a better time when you plan your trip than not. Since I have not been in my usual good walking condition, I decided to stay in Ginza, close to the good department stores that also offer a number of good restaurants to dine in. Matsuya is a superb department store with a good collection of fashionable clothiers, very good food and wine Dept. in the basement and excellent choice of restaurants on 8 th floor. I dined at Kenyan, a fine sushi restaurant twice and once at the Tempura restaurant, as a longtime lover of Japanese food, I truly enjoyed my dinners there. I also enjoyed Sake and wine tasting in the basement food Dept. around 6 pm, I was happily tasting good sake and wine free during the Happy Hour.
    To summarize my Tokyo experience of 4 days in 3 words, Safe, Clean & Helpful. I enjoyed my visit very much and will return soon.

    This is a huge department store with a rooftop garden, as well as a basement food hall. There are two levels of restaurants on the top floors, and they are excellent. Great place to shop and it is attached to the Ikebukuro station.

    I was surprised to find the Nihombashi Takashimaya S.C. on my way back to my hotel.
    The building was cool and it offered multiple floors for fashion & accessories, with numerous dining options.

    I had been here before just out of interest and returned to this iconic store that goes back to1881 where it started as a watch and jewelry store by K Hattori. Today it is famous for expensive watches , jewelry, chocolates, porcelain and hand bags.Today it sits at the heart of Ginza on Ginza Dori, with its famous clock tower rebuilt in 1932. I poked my head in and then out for the obvious reason but it is worth a look to see an interesting building and real classy shopping--if that is your desire and capability.

    The huge departmental store is located just next to the bustling Shinjuku train station, covering 8 storeys (including the basements and one rooftop, which I will explain later).

    It seems that it caters to everyone in the family, selling all kinds of merchandise including fashion, bags, shoes, cosmestics, toys etc. Escalators and lifts are easily accessible, just like the washrooms.

    The lower basements are mainly supermarket and food stalls, where you will be spoiled for choices. And this is one of the most crowded places in the departmental store at any time of the day!

    In addition, several medium to high end restaurants are located on the 8th storey, mainly Japanese and Western cuisines. This is "quieter" than at the basements and prices are generally steeper.

    And if you go up another floor to the rooftop, there is a plant nursery outdoor and an indoor pets stores, selling all kinds of accessories relating to pets, dogs, cats, fishes etc. And I especially like this "greenery" as it allows shoppers to take a break from the "noise and crowd" from the lower floors and indulge in some peace and greenery. There is also a cafe here which you can help yourself with some fingerfood.

    If you are into shopping and staying near the train station, you will not miss this huge departmental store for sure! Make sure you have sufficient time allocated here (and cash too) for shopping!

    Came to this Ikebukuro Station as needed to take my girl to an anime cafe. Decided to shop and eat here first.

    I love this huge basement food heaven. Omg b1 and b2…. I went crazy wanting to buy everything. Bought Aomori apples, tomatoes, sashimi from Tsukiji market and Suzuki Suisan fisheries for their Chutoro and Tuna Don.

    Definitely used alot money here as it’s a food paradise even for pastries and sweets
    Recommended coming here with there a Sky Lounge upstairs on Level 7 serving beer and dL soft drinks and BBQ

    This was a fun and trendy outpost of the large Marui Department Store chain in Tokyo. There are fashion and home goods, and fun little places to eat.

    Similar to Isetan Men’s, this is a mall just for men’s fashion. About 8 floors with casual and luxury brands. Almost or all the luxury brands are here

    Some of the shops were closed down or under renovation during my last visit. There were still some shops, restaurants and cafes in Granduo.
