Ue Roast（ウエ焙煎場）(instagram.com/ue.roast) is the second café opened by the owner of ue. Shinya Ueda (instagram.com/ueshin_japan), located a short walk from Tanimachi 6-chome Station on the Tanimachi Line. The café occupies the ground floor of a small building along Nagahori-dori, making it a convenient stop while exploring the area around Tanimachi 6-chome and Matsuyamachi.

The building has been renovated by Transform Inc (transform-design.co.jp)., the same company responsible for the original ue. café. While the two shops share the same owner and renovation company, Ue Roast has its own character, with a more compact layout designed around the coffee counter and roasting equipment.

The menu focuses on coffee roasted in-house, with a selection of beans available for filter coffee. Visitors can also enjoy espresso, Americanos, lattes, cappuccinos, and other coffee drinks, including a dirty latte and oat milk latte. For those who prefer something different, the menu includes orange juice, mikan juice from Uwajima, and a babyccino. A guest bake is also available, making it possible to enjoy a small sweet alongside your coffee.

The interior is simple yet refined, with a stylish coffee counter made from stacked beams as its main feature. Bench seating runs along the left side, while the roasting machine can be seen at the back of the space. The restrained materials and compact layout create a warm, modern atmosphere that feels more like a dedicated coffee bar than a conventional café.

The exterior is understated, with glass sliding doors forming the entrance. The glass uses a magic mirror finish, allowing people inside to see out while preventing passersby from seeing clearly into the café. This gives the seating area a sense of privacy without making the entrance feel closed off.

One of the café’s most distinctive details is the Ue gacha machine at the back, where customers can find small Ue keychains. It is a playful addition to the otherwise carefully considered interior, and a nice little souvenir for visitors who enjoy the café’s design and atmosphere.

The main attraction is the combination of in-house roasting and the stylish counter experience. Guests can sit on the bench seating, enjoy a carefully prepared coffee, and watch the roasting equipment in the background. With its refined interior, understated facade, and small design details, Ue Roast offers an intimate coffee experience while continuing the identity established by the original ue.

2026年9月に、ウエ.の2号店となる「Ue Roast」（instagram.com/ue.roast）が谷町六丁目駅から歩いてすぐの場所にオープンしました。

ue.と同じく、Transform Inc.が改修を手がけています。積み重ねた梁を使ったコーヒーカウンターが印象的で、左側にはベンチ席、奥には焙煎機があります。開口部にはマジックミラー仕様のガラス戸を採用しており、面白い工夫が感じられます。

自家焙煎のコーヒーを中心に、ハンドドリップやエスプレッソ系のドリンクなどがあります。今回はカフェラテをいただきました。めちゃくちゃ美味しかったです。奥にあるUEのガチャ機器から、UEキーホルダーのお土産もゲットできます。

ウエ焙煎所は、谷町エリアで美味しいコーヒーを楽しみながら、ゆったりと過ごせるこぢんまりとしたコーヒーショップです。
