Osaka’s caffeine scene has come on leaps and bounds in recent times. Whether it’s a sleek specialty coffee shop or a traditional kissaten café you’re after, there’s a plethora of options to choose from throughout the city now.
Independent and small-batch roasters who source, roast and blend their own beans are becoming more common too. Some of these local roasters have even become mini-destinations in themselves, as they roast their beans right on site: you can pick up a bag of freshly roasted coffee to go after enjoying an energising shot on the spot.
So upgrade your next coffee run by heading to some of our favourite roasters in the city, and consider pairing their signature roast or blend with something sweet for that perfect pick-me-up.
