Coffee Tales in Japan | Starbucks Reserve, Hoshino Cafe, Blue Bottle Cafe, Amanoya Bakery, FaSoLa Cafe and MOS Burger

Here's the cafes/coffeeshops we've tried, aside from the usual cofffee sold at convenience stores.

1. Starbucks Reserve

By far, second to my most unforgettable SB brand experience. 

They partnered with Fukusaya, a well known brand that sells castella cakes (and other baked goods). I really like their cakes! ♡

If only I live there, I'd definitely try each coffee in the menu! ☕♡

Here's my review:

Taste - 4.5/5

Great coffee and dessert choices 💯

Ambiance - 4/5

Although I like the location and ambiance, I recommend to visit this branch during lax hours. 

Price - 3/5

It is a bit pricey than the usual. 

2. Hoshino Cafe

Went here for lunch + snack. So I had pasta and coffee 😁

Taste - 4/5

Ambiance - 4/5

3. Blue Bottle Cafe

Located inside a mall.

Taste - 4/5

Good cup ☕💯

Ambiance - 3/5

As it is inside the mall, seats are limited.

Price - 3/5

Typical rates with other cafes. 

4. Amanoya Bakery

Located at the 5th Station in Mt. Fuji. Best for quick 'recovery' if you feel tired of the long travel time. 

Taste - 3/5

Coffee tastes like your usual brewed coffee. 

The bread they sell tastes okay, nothing special. 

Ambiance - 3/5

Don'r expect much as this place seemed to be made for really a very quick rest only. 

They do have chairs and tables. 

Price - 3/5

Same with other regular cafes.

5. FaSoLa Cafe

Located at the Narita Airport. 

Taste - 3/5

Typical americano/brewed coffee. 

Ambiance - 3/5

Few tables and chairs available, space was not enclosed.

Price - 3/5

Expect to be pricey than usual because it is inside the airport area. 

6. MOS Burger

Thumbs up for selling coffee😁

Taste - 3/5

Usual brewed coffee taste

Ambiance - 3/5

Typical fastfood ambiance

Same rates with other shops.
