We apologize for any inconvenience during our closure and kindly ask for your understanding.

We would be delighted if you could drop by again in the new year, whether during a stroll through Shinjuku Gyoen or as part of your daily routine.

In 2026, we will continue to carefully prepare each cup of tea and each rice ball, striving to be a gentle, warm presence that helps bring a little order to your day through the simple pleasures of Japanese tea and rice balls. We would be delighted if, in the new year, you continue to visit us as a place to stop by during your stroll through Shinjuku Gyoen or for a moment of respite from your busy daily life.

Thank you for your patronage this past year.

Wishing you a wonderful New Year.

We look forward to your continued support of NIGICHA in the coming year.
