What this place is

A supermarket in name, but the shelves lean greengrocer: vegetables and fruit take up most of the floor, with bread, bento boxes, sweets and seasonings alongside. Off-spec produce is where the prices drop, and the chives cost little enough to toss into any basket. Look for Mitsuya's baked Nagamochi among the Japanese sweets. A basket runs roughly ¥1,000–3,000.

Vegetables first, everything else after

This is a branch of Una Casita Beans, sitting inside the Beans Asagaya building in Asagaya, and what you notice walking in is how much of the floor is given over to vegetables and fruit. The sign says supermarket, but the arrangement reads greengrocer, with bread, bento boxes, sweets and seasonings filling in the rest.

Start with the produce. The vegetables are sold as off-spec, and the prices are the reason to come: chives cost little enough that they go into the basket without a thought, and the range stretches to less common vegetables you can browse through. Nothing about the quality drops with the grade, so a plain tomato or a bunch of greens behaves the way you want it to.

Among the sweets, Mitsuya's baked Nagamochi is the one to pick up first, a Japanese sweet that sits on the shelf beside the produce rather than in a separate department. The bread counter has an oregano long sausage that is worth adding to the same bag.

The building itself has a picture-book feel from the outside, which sets the tone before you are through the door. It is a small-format shop, so you move through it quickly, and the ¥1,000–3,000 you spend covers a full basket of vegetables with a sweet or a bread item on top.

The trade-off is range: this is a produce-led shop, so if you need a full weekly stock of meat, dairy and household goods in one pass, you will come up short. Come for the vegetables and the sweets, and treat the rest as a bonus.

What to look for

Baked Nagamochi from Mitsuya

A Japanese sweet stocked among the shelves, the item to buy first if you are taking something home.

Chives

Priced low enough that a bunch costs almost nothing, an easy add to any vegetable basket.

Oregano long sausage

A bread-counter sausage that makes a quick savoury addition to the bag.

The pick list

What to bring home

  1. Baked Nagamochi (Mitsuya)

    The Japanese sweet to pick up from the shelves here is the baked Nagamochi from Mitsuya.

  2. Chives

    They cost so little that they are an easy add-on to a vegetable basket, and the vegetables here are the draw.

  3. Oregano long sausage

    A bread-counter sausage worth adding to the basket when you stop in for vegetables.

Who is this for

This suits a traveler staying in or passing through Asagaya who wants to cook with vegetables and pay greengrocer prices rather than supermarket ones. It also works for anyone with a sweet tooth who wants a Japanese sweet like Mitsuya's baked Nagamochi alongside the shopping. And if you like browsing a produce section for less common vegetables, the range here rewards a slow pass.

If you need prepared bentos and a fuller run of daily groceries rather than produce, York Foods on Asagayakita is the practical stop.

The verdict

It is a produce-led shop rather than a full-range supermarket, so you will not cover a whole week's groceries here, but for cheap vegetables and a Japanese sweet on the way through Asagaya it does the job.
