Top 5 Cafes in Kyoto Prefecture

５９３番地１ Hirata, Ine, Yoza District, Kyoto 626-0424, Japan

“I think this is the coolest place in the small town of Ine-no-Funaya. You can enjoy the beautiful and tranquil scenery, and a meal menu is provided for lunch. At ine-buridon, you can enjoy really fresh buri (yellowtail). Also, the cafe menu is excellent. Both the coffee and dessert were delicious, and you can enjoy the sea view quietly and leisurely. The staff are all friendly and the interior space is spacious. There are also many beautiful photo spots.”

“The view was beautiful, making it the perfect place to savor a snack or lunch. The curry, matcha, sweets, and hamburger lunch sets were quite good. The only disappointment was the gelato, which seemed overpriced and nothing out of the ordinary”

45-15 Sagatenryuji Susukinobabacho, Ukyo Ward, Kyoto, 616-8385, Japan

“Both the atmosphere and the food were good. The French toast was especially delicious.”

211 Seiryucho, Kamigyo Ward, Kyoto, 602-0822, Japan

“Love the atmosphere here. The food was great too. They are famous for the toast that is filled with many veggies, meat and egg. But I personally prefer the egg sandwich more :)”

554 Motoshiogamacho, Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto, 600-8119, Japan

“綺麗な店。Amazing coffee and matcha in a beautiful building, well equipped for co-working peacefully and comfortably. I wish I had something to 3D print or cut while I was here! I’m sure the events hosted here are also quite fun. Definitely one of the best coffee shops in Kyoto”

415-2 Minamimachi, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto, 605-0824, Japan

“A great place to grab breakfast by Kiyomizu-dera. It's walkable distance from the temple grounds and the little shops that line streets. You have choice of a few breakfast sets which come with a drink. I choose the cheese toast set which was delicious! Comes with a salad and mashed potatoes. Wait wasn't long and our waiter was courteous and prompt. You can also buy artisanal ground coffee here if you like.”

785 Nishihashizumecho, Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto, 600-8029, Japan

“We ordered egg sandwiches, cinnamon toast and iced au lait. Everything was delicious. The service was great. We enjoyed the view and atmosphere while we waited. Best egg sandwich I’ve tasted while visiting Japan. I had a delightful, peaceful time at this spot. Definitely my favorite breakfasts while here in Japan.”

8-3 Higashishiokoji Takakuracho, Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto, 600-8215, Japan

“Ordinary coffee, ordinary toast. How can it not taste good when you sprinkle so much sugar on it?”

41 Shichiku Shimotakedonocho, Kita Ward, Kyoto, 603-8412, Japan

“Amazing vegan/vegetarian place. To eat some sweets, to have some delicious tea from their selection, and they even serve lunch. They sell objects as well so you can have a look around and even take something with you. The ambiance is super relaxed and the place with store adjunct well designed, everything beautiful and timeless.”

Japan, 〒604-8143 Kyoto, Nakagyo Ward

“I was expecting a bit more given the price point. It was a good meal but not extraordinary. I’ve had quite a few Italian meals in Japan, this one wasn’t particularly memorable. It was decent, perhaps a bit bland, but for 11,000¥ I was hoping for something special. Also, the beef course was a little tough, not top quality. To be honest the place had a bit of a sad vibe, like a restaurant that won’t be around much longer. Service was crisp and professional.”

Japan, 〒600-8005 Kyoto, Shimogyo Ward, 東京海上ビル １Ｆ

“Coffee is too sweet and to milky, my fault may be I order mocha. Cakes quite good, better tha coffee. The place is large with many tables, but definitely not designed for people to hang out, but more for work.”

50-1 Kamikawaracho, Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto, 604-8374, Japan

“Such a cozy little Cafe! Great for a quick breakfast. Everything was so reasonably priced. Our food came quickly as well and my coffee blend was perfect. Staff were super polite and kind. Free wifi too for those that need a place to study or catch up on work.”
