Piu cafe

Located in the north-western part of Kyoto, just a seven-minute walk from Kitanohakubaicho Station and south of the famous Kinkakuji (Golden Pavilion), is the stylish and inviting ‘Piu Cafe‘. This trendy cafe first opened its doors in 2016 and is situated on the ground floor of the KNOB apartment building. As you approach, you’ll be greeted by a stylish light-blue double door, and during the summer months, a large rusty sliding door in the back of the cafe is unlocked, providing an alternative entrance for customers.

Inside you’ll be welcomed by a spacious interior with an industrial-style design, tastefully blended with rustic elements, designed by the firm Kouei. The seating arrangement includes two four-person tables, a large metal table with comfortable benches, four kitchen counter chairs, and a generous table at the back, accommodating up to twenty people.

When it comes to the menu, Piu Cafe offers a delicious variety of savory options for lunch, such as pizzas and pasta. These can be enjoyed as part of the daily set menu or ordered individually. Additionally, their dessert selection features delicious treats like apple pies, scones, tarts, parfaits, and their signature millefeuilles, elegantly served on stylish soapstone plates with a generous scoop of ice cream on top. Each dish is as looks great and tastes even better.

With its trendy atmosphere, delicious items, and a comfortable ambiance, Piu Cafe is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a yummy food experience in Kyoto. Piu cafe is definitely a must-visit.
