Moto Coffee

Welcome to one of the most popular cafes in Kitahama, ‘Moto Coffee’, one of two branches (the other one being Moto Coffee Uehonmachi ) and located right across the street of Kitahama Station exit 26. The cafe occupies three floors in a narrow building that is shaped in a triangle and is very easy to spot with its chalk white exterior.

The order counter is on the first floor where the customers first have to order their drinks or sweets before they can bring their order to their seat which is either the terrace seats downstairs or by going back outside and through the iron gate on the left of the entrance that has stairs leading up to the second and third floor cafe area. The seating areas are small rooms behind glass doors with each two or three tables, all with a view over the Tosahori river. The interior is mostly white with simple wooden tables and J39 Shaker Chairs .

The menu has a large selection of coffee (americano, cafe latte (450 yen), cappuccino, mocha and much more), teas and softdrinks. To go with the drinks, they also have cake, tiramisu, flan or even something more hearty like toast sandwiches.

Moto Coffee is a nice café with a nice view in a convenient location but make sure to come early or expect some waiting time.
