(Early 2010s) Coffee Shop Menu
Unfortunately, the number of old coffee shops in Japan is on the decline, but you can definitely have a different experience there than at Starbucks.
Some cafes have a full range of food and dessert menus, and you can enjoy unique Japanese flavors such as Neapolitan spaghetti.

This coffee shop is attached to a sweets shop, so they have a wide selection of cakes.
Privately run coffee shops that are loved by locals sometimes come with unexpected bonuses. That day, I ordered coffee, and not only the coffee arrived, but also a banana, melon, and orange.









Another interesting post, Akira. I’ve heard that coffee shops around Japan have different types of “Morning service” or just “Morning.” Some have a boiled egg and toast. Some have a small salad. Also, if you just order a coffee in the middle of the day, here in Aichi, you’ll get rice crackers (sembei), nuts, or some little cake with it, but in other cities, you won’t. I’ve always thought that was curious.
Where's the green tea on the menu? My daily morning tea comes from Japan, Gyokuro Shizuoka, and I love it! Is green tea exclusive to a tea salon?
