Many many Japanese cafe, Kissa-ten, allow you to stay enough time to infiltrate your "parched" body with a cup of coffee, but not to relax fully. There are always a line in front of a cafe urges you through "assistance" of waiters/waitresses, unsaid pressure. It is difficult to find Starbucks type, "stay as long as you want" type, Kissa-ten in Japan, especially in a tourist area like Shijo/Sanjyo.
Rokuyosha is the one.
Comfortable and cozy small cafe allow you to stay with a cup of coffee and books/newspaper...and with a cigar. For Non smokers & coffee lovers, I recommend to dive in Chika-ten, Rokuyosha underground.
The reputations of ROKUYOSHA has been created by this Chika-ten, which serves flavorful dark roast beans, well harmonized blends, and well chosen specialty beans. Without a doubt, a cup of coffee here gives you a moment to relax yourself with a cup and a sweets, reasonably priced. Doughnuts they have costs you only JPY120, amazing price for Kissa-ten.
As the sign says, Chika-ten's atmosphere is "a bar" type, a little bit dark with down-lights, a counter, narrow space, and so on, but comfortable for a coffee lover to drop in. The cafe welcomes you and entertains you with a cup of dark flavorful coffee selection.
Chika-ten opens at 11am, so come and join your afternoon and evening cup. Rokuyosha on the ground opens earlier but serves only one BLEND coffee; so, I recommend to go to Chika-ten if you LOVE coffee and want to ENJOY full aspects of your cup.
