The Stand is a takeaway Japanese drinks and snack bar at the entrance of Japan House on the ground floor. Stop by to try authentic Japanese teas, such as hot or iced matcha, hōjicha (roasted green tea) and sencha (green tea) teas, as well as hot or iced matcha latte and hōjicha latte. Learn more about the varieties of Japanese tea.

During the summer a seasonal menu is available at the Stand, which includes iced mugicha (barley tea), matcha affogato, peach sorbet and kakigōri (shaved ice).

Kissaten coffee is also available at The Stand. It is named after old style Japanese tearooms, kissaten, that also serve coffee and sweets. The coffee is brewed with the pour over method, using specialist kit from Japanese manufacturer HARIO. A selection of Japanese confectionary is on offer each week, a rotating menu consisting of seasonal sweets and jellies.
