Suggested order: morning at Mallorca (opens 9:00) → Tamagawa Takashimaya S·C (a 3-minute walk) → HAMADA-YA on B1F of the main building → Let It Be Coffee on the shopping street → Hyogoshima Park → Futako-Tamagawa Park (Kishin-en closes at 17:00).
A gourmet store appointed to the Spanish Royal Household, combining a patisserie, bakery and cafe under one roof. It sits on the 2F of Terrace Market, Futako Tamagawa Rise S.C., a 6-minute walk from Futako-Tamagawa Station. Open 09:00–22:00 every day, with a morning menu, so it works as either the start or the end of the walk.
Opened in 1969, this was Japan's first suburban shopping center. It consists of the main building, south building, west building and more, and forms the center of the Futako-Tamagawa townscape. A 3-minute walk from the station, it makes an easy landmark for deciding which direction to head next.
A bakery cafe run by "Komugi to Koubo Hamadaya," where carefully made bread and organic coffee can be enjoyed on site. It is on B1F of the Tamagawa Takashimaya main building, a 3-minute walk from Futako-Tamagawa Station. Its hours follow those of the main building's B1F food floor.
A self-roasting coffee shop on the Futako-Tamagawa shopping street. It is a community-rooted cafe that puts care into hospitality for each individual guest, a 6-minute walk from Futako-Tamagawa Station. Hours are 11:00–20:00 and it is closed on Wednesdays, so shuffle the order if you walk midweek.
A riverbank park where the Tama River and the Nogawa River meet, a 6-minute walk from Futako-Tamagawa Station. The open ground suits waterside strolling and picnics, so this is the stretch to sit down by the river with the bread and coffee you picked up earlier. The scenery changes completely from the streets behind you.
A ward park along the Tama River with a scenic lookout plaza and the Japanese garden Kishin-en, plus a Starbucks inside the grounds. It is a 10-minute walk from the station, and Kishin-en is open 9:00–17:00 (until 16:30 from November to February).
One closing tip: Let It Be Coffee is closed on Wednesdays, and Kishin-en shuts at 17:00 (16:30 from November to February). If you start in the late afternoon, take the parks first and finish at Mallorca, which stays open until 22:00.
