Sloth Coffee Lab

Sloth Coffee Lab (instagram.com/slothcoffee_roasters) opened on June 18, 2025, in the Nakazakicho area of Osaka, just a short walk from either Nakazakicho Station on the Tanimachi Line or Tenjinbashisuji 6-chome Station on the Sakaisuji Line. Tucked away in a quiet alley, it marks the third branch of Sloth Coffee, following the original shops in Motomachi, Kobe and the Nakatsu area . The café spans two floors and offers generous seating throughout.

The exterior features a clean, minimalist design with the signature Sloth Coffee logo in black set against a white façade. Large ground-floor windows provide a clear view into the dark dimly lit interior. The entrance, located around the side of the building, leads through a sliding door to a modern ordering counter where a large digital screen displays the menu. A small case showcases the day’s selection of house-made sweets, accompanied by “Squeaky Coffee”`s HOM coffee sniffer bottles . On the first floor, there’s a spacious kitchen and order counter, several counter seats, and three tables for four. Upstairs, guests will find a larger seating area with a communal table, multiple two-person tables, and a counter with electrical outlets for those looking to work or study.

The menu includes a well-rounded variety of coffee beverages such as hand-drip coffee, espresso, Americano, café latte, flat white, vanilla bean latte, hazelnut latte, and a refreshing yuzu espresso tonic. Non-coffee options range from houjicha and matcha lattes to kid-friendly drinks. Alongside the drinks, Sloth Coffee Lab offers a rotating selection of fresh baked goods, including banana bread, gâteau breton, lemon cake, and tiramisu, all designed to pair well with their coffee offerings.

Sloth Coffee Lab Nakazakicho offers a minimalist atmosphere with ample seating and a diverse menu, set in a quiet location with a spacious design. Its focus on quality and relaxed approach make it an inviting destination for both casual coffee drinkers and dedicated café enthusiasts.
