Hakubi Coffee Kawanishi

Opened in May 2024, the stylish Hakubi Coffee Kawanishi (instagram.com/hakubi_coffee_kawanishi) brings a fresh, laid-back coffee experience to the Kawanishi area of Hyogo. Just a short walk from Kawanishi Noseguchi Station, the café sits along a main road that sees plenty of foot traffic from both locals and visitors.

The cafe sits in a 60 year old building on the ground floor featuring a clean modern looking exterior with large windows that reveal the bright interior and naturally draw you in. Step inside and the vibe is relaxed and stylish, with a simple setup of counter and table seating. The space is uncluttered, the high-backed chairs are comfortable, and it all feels like a nice place to enjoy a quiet coffee break or catch up with a friend. Designed by meme7interior (instagram.com/meme7interior) this café blends modern industrial design with warm Scandinavian touches. Exposed concrete floors, white-and-gray structural elements, and visible ductwork create a clean, minimal base, while oak wood details, like the counter, shelves, and tables add warmth. Amber globe pendants and black cone lights bring contrast and atmosphere. With its focus on clean lines, natural materials, and a few leafy plants, the space feels both professional and welcoming, ideal for serious coffee and relaxed conversation..

This cafe offers a solid selection of coffee drinks and light food options. The espresso menu features classics like lattes, cappuccinos, and americanos, along with specialty choices such as roasted hazelnut latte and choco-latte. They also serve matcha lattes, cold brew, and non-coffee options like lemonade and orange juice. On the food side, there’s a small but satisfying selection of sweets including cheesecake, lemon cake, and sticky toffee pudding, as well as savory options like a BLT sandwich and pulled pork dish.

Hakubi Coffee Kawanishi is a great addition to the local coffee scene. With its stylish vibe and commitment to great coffee, it’s definitely worth checking out, especially if you’re in the neighborhood.
