Hangry Joe's Tokyo announced a second location in Higashi-Ikebukuro for 26 May 2026, with chicken burgers as its main offering. The published address is 2-62-10 Higashi-Ikebukuro.

Before you go

Muslim diners should check this branch's arrangements before treating it as a halal dining destination. The release discusses the brand's halal approach, but does not establish the current certification scope for every Ikebukuro menu item. It also describes a diner format that includes alcoholic drinks. Ask which dishes meet your requirements and how they are prepared. The opening promotion has ended and is not a current offer.

CRISP SALAD WORKS: how to check a tofu salad beyond its vegetables

The current Sweet Farm description mentions roasted tofu, apple, raisins and celery. An older official Q&A discussed a vegan Earthy Nutty Crunchy salad, but that name was not in the current catalog we reviewed. We therefore do not carry its vegan claim onto Sweet Farm.

WithGreen: vegetables, dressing and the complete salad bowl

The current menu’s all-vegetable bowl lists vegetables such as carrot, daikon, tomato and cabbage, with a recommended lemon dressing. This list does not settle every seasoning or dressing ingredient. The site asks customers to discuss honey and allergens with staff.
