It was a steamy hot day, so I opted for a refreshing flower syrup squash. The bougainvillea decoration adds a tropical touch and looks cute. I also had a pudding, which had a light texture and delicious espresso caramel, I finished it in no time. The stylish atmosphere is very soothing. Bougainvillea is in full bloom.

Located about a 5-minute walk from Nishijin Station in Fukuoka, this small cafe has 10 seats inside and about 4 seats outside. The exterior is adorned with beautiful pink bougainvillea, while the interior features neatly displayed art pieces. Despite it being early afternoon, we were able to find a seat right away. The cafe is quite popular and often full, so there may be a wait on weekends. After ordering and paying at the counter, we took our seats. The cafe mainly attracts families and women, making it a comfortable place for solo female customers. I ordered a cafe latte and espresso caramel pudding. The pudding came topped with whipped cream and dried orange. The caramel had a rich flavor with a hint of bitterness, but it paired well with the sweetness of the pudding and cream. It's clear that the cafe not only focuses on aesthetics but also pays attention to taste.

I occasionally go to Nishijin, which is mainly a shopping street area. It's my first time coming to this area. I wanted to buy some coffee beans, so I was looking for a good shop and found this one! The reviews and the photos looked nice, so I decided to come. I arrived before the 11 am opening time. The shop looks lovely from the outside! I wandered around the area while waiting and then entered the shop. The inside also has a nice atmosphere. It feels homemade and warm, which is wonderful. I ordered a double espresso. It's a bit lacking in bitterness, but not bad. I would like to come back to this shop.

I passed through a lively shopping street from Nishishin Station and entered a small cafe with a lot of customers. Many people were ordering the chestnut latte that I often see on SNS during this season. The latte had a cute design with white and brown chestnut shapes on the surface. I thought it might be too sweet, so I opted for a regular cafe latte and a soft pudding. The pudding had a bitter taste overall. The cafe was small, and the owner was handling everything alone that day, but despite being busy, they provided excellent service. Thank you for the meal!

While taking a walk nearby, I stumbled upon a nostalgic cafe. I couldn't help but fall in love after trying their rich pudding with a strong caramel flavor and a hint of coffee aroma. The chestnut on the side had a subtle sweetness, and the latte was delicious too! The latte art was super cute, and the cozy atmosphere inside and out made it a highly recommended spot. Please leave your recommendations if you have any. I love Fukuoka! ☺️

I ordered a popular Nyorco Coffee Cafe Latte in Nishijin for my Fukuoka cafe and coffee tour. The master asked about my preference and I requested a stronger espresso. It was rich but had a smooth texture and the latte art was beautiful!

After enjoying a delicious lunch, head over to this place. The shop exudes style even from the outside. Menu: I asked the staff, "Which one looks the best?" as a fan of Instagram-worthy photos (that's me). They recommended the shakes for their visual appeal. My friend ordered the "White Nut Espresso Shake (670 yen)" and I got the "Matcha Shake (670 yen)". The designs, including the chocolate, really stood out. On top, there was whipped cream and chocolate on the side. The shakes were not too sweet and very tasty. A perfect drink after a meal. I am grateful to my friend for choosing such a lovely shop. It seemed to be quite popular with customers coming in one after another.

It is located about a 5-6 minute walk from Nishijin Subway Station, across the road from Nishijin Fukuoka University Hospital. I visited this place for a lunch second round with my friend from MyRebi. The restaurant has a counter, a small table for two, and also outdoor seating. We were lucky to find an available table just in time. We both ordered the Niol Shake, which comes in three flavors: banana, matcha, and white nuts. I had the White Nuts shake, priced at 670 yen. It was cute, with chocolate spread on the inside of the glass and topped with whipped cream and nuts. The coffee flavor was strong, but it was a bit too sweet for my taste. It was a bit challenging to rescue the nuts that sank to the bottom at the end. MyRebi had the Matcha shake, also priced at 670 yen. It seemed to be popular among young people as customers kept coming in one after another. Takeout is also available. Thank you for the meal!

Niyol Coffee is a small cafe located in a residential area in the Nishijin area of Fukuoka City, known for its direct roasting. It also features a book cafe with an impressive collection of books. I first learned about it a long time ago at "1UNIT." in Kokura. After reading reviews from a reviewer who loves cafes, I knew I had to visit. It's located in a corner of a row house. There are terrace seats next to the entrance, and inside, it's a compact space with lots of flowers, creating a soothing atmosphere. There are a few counter seats, tables, and can accommodate up to about 15 people. Looking at the ceiling, it seems that it was renovated from an office with amber-colored beams. Payment is made at the reception, and they bring your order to your seat. The menu includes tax-included coffee starting from 320 yen, tea starting from 600 yen, juice starting from 570 yen, and sweets starting from 450 yen. I ordered a cafe latte for 500 yen. It had a nutty flavor with a medium-dark roast (from El Salvador) and a creamy milk balance. The espresso machine is La Marzocco, and there is a black roasting machine at the back counter, which is a 1-kilo model, ensuring fresh coffee every time. I also bought some beans. 100g of Kenya (dark roast) for 900 yen. It has a fruity taste without much acidity. Despite being a dark roast, it has a mild bitterness and a good balance. The owner, Ochi-san, informed me about an ongoing book event. They have a small library corner curated by the book selector Nishiki, which is a permanent feature at Niyol. Additionally, there is an exhibition in the gallery in the basement. I visited the exhibition, which featured photobooks mainly focused on Western food. It was quite impressive. I was particularly drawn to three books: "Halo" by Rinko Kawauchi, "Cloud Studies" compiling weather observations from the 1880s, and "All Our Suns" capturing images of stars. Nishiki-san guided me through the exhibition. We had a nice conversation about our shared interest in taking photos of the sky. Ochi-san has a gentle demeanor, similar to Nishiki-san's character. It was a good opportunity to spend time looking at books, which I don't usually get to do. I received a booklet about the Niyol library, and it had a pleasant scent. The next event will be coffee art, which I'm also interested in. Despite being a bit far, I might visit again because I like the beans and the atmosphere at Niyol Coffee. Niyol Coffee is open from 11:00 to 18:00, closed on Thursdays. Takeout is available, no parking on-site but paid parking nearby. Check their official page for events.

Niyor Coffee is located on the south side of Nishijin Station, across from Fukuoka University Nishijin Hospital. The shop is compact with a counter, tables, and a unique Danish roaster called Aillio Bullet R1. They offer a variety of coffees, including a delicious El Salvador Santa Rita natural deep roast. The atmosphere is cozy and the staff is friendly. I also tried their unique Strawberry Shake, which was surprisingly tasty. Overall, it's a great place to relax and enjoy quality coffee. I'll definitely be visiting again.

I visited during the scorching heat on a weekday afternoon. The interior of the shop is quite small, but it's quiet and relaxing. The drinks and cakes are stylish and perfect for Instagram. They were delicious! It's conveniently located near a bus stop or train station, so transportation is not a problem. The staff was calm and kind. I'm interested in trying other menu items, so I will definitely go back. Thank you for the meal! ♡

One customer after another keeps coming in. My daughter was hospitalized at the hospital in front of me, so I took a break and got some takeout. I ordered a banana shake and a strawberry shake, both coffee-based. The banana shake was highly praised by my husband last time, and it was delicious this time as well. It has a mature taste with a moderate sweetness. The strawberry shake, on the other hand, clashed with my taste buds with the acidity of coffee and strawberries (lol). I'd like to take my time and dine in next time.

This is NIYOL COFFEE in Nishijin. I was brought here by an acquaintance. The interior of the shop has only a few seats at the counter and a few tables, so we sat at an outdoor table. This time, I ordered a banana shake and a matcha shake, as well as a gateau chocolat. The taste was great, and the appearance was cute, perfect for girls. I heard they also have a strawberry shake, so I'm looking forward to going there next time!

The PC was running slowly, so I decided to spend some time at this cafe nearby while waiting for maintenance at the Best Denki store. I arrived at 11 am when the cafe opened. The interior was small but stylish. I ordered and paid at the counter, then sat down as there were only chairs at the counter. The menu that caught my eye was the "NIYOL TONIC BEER" named after the cafe. Although alcohol was available for an extra 100 yen, I opted for the non-alcoholic version since it was daytime. It was made with Ethiopian coffee, carbonated water, and mixed in a blender. The owner had tried various combinations and settled on using lightly roasted Ethiopian coffee. Initially, it had a foamy texture but as time passed, it started to resemble beer visually. It had a smooth taste even without adding lime, but squeezing the lime in added a different dimension to the flavor, making it doubly delicious. I also learned about a new cafe that focuses on roasting coffee near my house from the owner. I will definitely visit that place too! This cafe has a lot of unique and original menu items, and the owner was friendly and engaging since I was the only customer there. I will definitely visit this cafe again!

Today, the weather was nice so after taking a walk in Suhara Park, I came to this cafe. The interior is small, more like a coffee stand. It seems they can only accommodate three groups at a time. A handsome guy efficiently took our order. I wanted coffee, but feeling a bit under the weather, I opted for chai while my husband slyly ordered the blueberry smoothie from a hidden menu he found on Instagram. The chai seemed to be made with homemade syrup, not store-bought. The sweet and delicious smoothie was beautifully decorated with chocolate along the rim. Two college girls from the southwest were quick to post their strawberry and banana smoothie on Instagram. Despite being recently opened, the place was already attracting a steady stream of customers, from local runners to older ladies. It's not a place for lingering, but I would love to come back for their coffee next time. Thank you for the meal.

The other day, I went to a bento shop in the same area without even noticing, but I found out about this shop on Instagram! Despite being in a remote location, customers kept coming one after another! Luckily, we were able to find a table. The shop is small, with only a counter, high tables for 2 people, and a table for 3 people. Probably no restroom. You order first at the counter. When I saw bananas hanging next to the register, I was thrilled because I had heard that they serve banana smoothies! My husband ordered a banana smoothie (with coffee), and my daughter was undecided about her drink order, but they suggested making a banana smoothie without coffee for her! I tried the unusual Choco Chai. We also ordered the rumored Terrine Cheesecake for 450 yen. The cheesecake was rich and creamy, perfect for cheese lovers! It had a hint of acidity which I liked! It was delicious!!! The Choco Chai was also delicious, with real cinnamon in it! The banana smoothie with coffee for my husband was subtly sweet with a coffee flavor and a mellow banana taste. The chocolate sauce was also tasty. My daughter's banana smoothie was perfect for someone with a child's palate like me! She drank it up happily. They even put it in a plastic cup, which I appreciated as a parent! It was a cozy shop. I want to go back again.

I stopped by because it was close by. I ordered the Ethiopian light roast coffee. The seating is limited to 6 people in 4 spots, so the interior is very small. They also sell coffee beans inside, but it's a bit pricey at 880 yen per 100g. The Ethiopian coffee has a sweet taste with acidity due to the light roast. It has a fruity aroma, more like tea than coffee. I learned that light roasts retain more polyphenols, so I will start drinking more light roast coffee from now on. The coffee itself is reasonably priced at 400 yen. On their website, they describe it as having a floral aroma like rose sweetness and a cool jasmine-like sensation. The clear liquid has sweetness like apricot and honey, with fruity acidity. It feels like eating high-quality dried fruits. Today, they were hosting a solo exhibition for the pointillist artist Hitomi in the basement. It was my first time seeing pointillist art, and it seems very intricate and challenging. I am grateful to have been able to appreciate it with the artist's explanation, and I look forward to seeing more of their work in the art world.

The coffee shop that opened in June is a small, cozy place with a coffee stand vibe. Inside, there is a small Aillio roaster on the counter, almost like an art piece. I ordered a regular coffee for 400 yen, with 5 different single origin options. I also got an Ethiopian coffee and a cheesecake for 450 yen. The beans were ground after ordering and brewed slowly with care. The coffee had a lovely aroma, sweetness, and tasted delicious. The cheesecake was from a nearby cafe called "Norino" and was smooth and light, melting in the mouth. Even though it's a small shop, the atmosphere is welcoming, and chatting with the owner was enjoyable. I ended up staying longer than planned. It was worth the visit.

I finally got to try the pudding I've been wanting... it was delicious! The popular pudding and chai (which I've been into lately) were both sold out. I was completely satisfied with the delicious taste and cozy atmosphere, and I was able to relax and enjoy my cafe time!

A trendy cafe where you can hear conversations between a dedicated owner and a quirky couple.
