About Toko Indonesia
Shin-Okubo, the Tokyo neighborhood better known internationally for its concentration of Korean shops and restaurants, also holds a smaller but well-established cluster of Southeast Asian grocery stores, among them Toko Indonesia, a shop specializing in Indonesian food products in the Hyakuninchou area of Shinjuku Ward. The store sits close to Okubo Station, making it accessible by train from most parts of central Tokyo.
The shop's core business is packaged and shelf-stable Indonesian food that is otherwise difficult to find in mainstream Japanese supermarkets. Instant noodles are a major category, with brands like Indomie and Sotomie stocked at prices comparable to what shoppers would expect in Indonesia rather than the import markups seen elsewhere. Energen, an Indonesian cereal drink sold in several flavors, is another steady seller, alongside a range of Indonesian snacks and drinks that Indonesian residents in Japan often single out as hard to source outside a dedicated shop like this one.
Toko Indonesia is closed on Mondays and open the remaining six days of the week, Tuesday through Sunday, from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM. The shop can be reached by phone at 03-3368-7870, and it maintains a website at toko-indonesia.org with additional information on its offerings. Given its focus on halal food products, the store also serves as a resource for Japan's broader Muslim community beyond Indonesian nationals specifically, a customer base that has grown in Tokyo alongside rising numbers of Muslim tourists and workers in the city.
For Indonesian residents of Tokyo, particularly students and workers without easy access to home-country groceries, Toko Indonesia functions as one of the more reliable places to restock kitchen staples and find comfort foods that mainstream retailers do not carry. Its location within the Okubo and Takadanobaba area also puts it near several other Southeast and South Asian grocers and halal restaurants, making it a practical stop as part of a broader shopping trip through the neighborhood rather than a single-purpose destination.
