The NACT doesn’t have its own parking facilities, but there are public parking lots nearby. However, it’s not recommended to drive here, as there are train stations a short walk away, and it’s best to avoid congestion and the stress of finding parking spaces.

There are dining options at the National Art Center Tokyo: Cafétéria Carré on floor B1, Café Coquille on the first floor, Salon de Thé Rond on the second floor, and Brasserie Paul Bocuse Le Musée on the third floor.
