What to know | UNIQLO Setagaya Chitosedai reopens October 23 with coffee and repairs

Tokyo UNIQLO Setagaya Chitosedai store is scheduled to be renovated and reopened on October 23, 2026. The store of approximately 2,247 square meters will be equipped with the first UNIQLO COFFEE in Setagaya District, and will be equipped with UNIQLO FLOWER and RE.UNIQLO STUDIO. This store, which opened in 2007, has been updated to combine clothing shopping, short stays and local services.

What does UNIQLO COFFEE sell? Filters and on-site drinks should be separated

The coffee area will provide the brand’s original coffee, as well as snacks from stores around Chitosedai. The official also announced the Chitosedai version of filter coffee in collaboration with "Machi no Kohi", which is divided into daytime and evening versions and can be purchased at the counter in the coffee area.

These two filter hangers are sold as merchandise, and the official instructions specifically indicate that they are not on the UNIQLO COFFEE on-site drink menu. Readers who want to take it home can check the filter bag; those who want to drink coffee on the spot should look at the drink menu of the day and cannot directly regard the product name as a cup drink that can be ordered.

Flowering, repairing and local collaboration have their own purposes

UNIQLO FLOWER provides seasonal flowers, and Japan has announced that a bouquet starts at 390 yen. RE.UNIQLO STUDIO provides services such as clothing repair, embroidery and alteration. The acceptance range, charges and time required for different services should be confirmed with the store separately. It is not appropriate to regard all used clothes as being able to be repaired on-site for free.

UTme! Local limited content links to "Setagaya Life", Setagaya Museum of Art, Odakyu Electric Railway character "Mocoron", Keio Electric Railway "Keita-kun", etc. For tourists, they are local images that are different from general fixed products; for nearby residents, they are related to transportation and cultural institutions that they usually come into contact with.

What limited activities will be held during the opening three days?

The official announcement is that it will open at 10 a.m. on the three days from October 23 to 25, and there will be a daily first-come-first-served La Vieille France mini madeleine event. There is also a gift arrangement for stainless steel bottles for those who purchase enough. Whether they are eligible and whether there is a quantity still depends on the conditions on the day of the event. Don’t confuse store visits with shopping gifts.

These opening events usually have limited numbers and dates. If the main purpose is to use coffee, repair or shopping services, you can first confirm the business arrangements of each district and then decide whether you need to rush to the opening three days; do not assume that all services will be open at the same time just because there are gifts.

Why do clothing stores add daily stopping points?

Put coffee, flowers and repairs into the same store, giving consumers other reasons to visit besides buying new clothes. In particular, the repair service is juxtaposed with the sale of new clothes, so that the treatment of the clothes after use is also visible; the local collaboration connects the products with the life around Chitosedai.
