For vegan travelers heading to Tokyo over the warmer months, The Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho is hosting a seasonal, plant-based event called Blooming Summer Afternoon Tea. Available from May 12th to August 31st, 2025, the menu is inspired by flowers that thrive in the heat of summer, like sunflowers and marigolds. Served at All-Day Dining OASIS GARDEN on the 36th floor, this experience combines high-rise city views with a fully vegan menu focused on seasonal ingredients.

The sweets plate includes rice flour banana and cranberry muffins styled with orange jelly to resemble sunflowers, a passionfruit and mango tart inspired by marigolds, mango and pineapple coconut cake, jasmine-scented fig cake, lime mini chocolates, and two types of bliss balls—one made with pistachio and apricot, and another with almonds and raspberry. Caramelized banana and fresh mango slices cut to look like roses round out the dessert selection.

Savory options include an edamame and soy milk mousse designed to look like a sunflower, and a soy meat taco filled with avocado, tomato, and other summer vegetables. Guests can enjoy a variety of teas from Ronnefeldt, as well as coffee.

The experience is priced from 6000 JPY per person, including tax and service charges, and seating is limited to two-hour time slots with reservations required in advance. A portion of each purchase goes toward supporting the Nature Conservation Society of Japan, an NGO working to protect biodiversity and promote harmony between people and nature.

This afternoon tea is part of the hotel's broader sustainability initiative, which focuses on environmentally responsible hospitality. For vegans looking to enjoy seasonal Japanese ingredients in a refined setting while supporting a good cause, this is a noteworthy stop in central Tokyo.
