Superb coffee with nice seating area to enjoy your cuppa. There is no food serve here but you can head over next door to grab a yummy red bean bread. Service was fast and efficient.

Super good coffee One of the best I’ve had! I rarely see cafes selling Caramel Latte in Okayama and Hiroshima, so I was happy when I saw it on the menu here. And the barista was nice even I asked I don’t want it too sweet. He managed to make a very tasty and beautiful caramel latte! Thank you

Tasted like a flat white! Nice barista and a good spot to grab a java to go - the inside isn’t really made to hang out and enjoy the brew tho.

Their Tea Soda is to die for, you must try it! i can’t believe I’ve never had this drink anywhere else before but it’s so good and refreshing. I loved it so much I went back there twice during my 3-day stay in Kurashiki.
