It was hot, so I had an ice drink and sandwich for lunch. The bread here looked thin but was moist and crispy, with a well-balanced filling, and was incredibly delicious. I think the layout of the store changed while I was away for a while. I want to try dessert next time. Thank you for the meal.

This is a small cafe run by the 3rd place winner of the Latte Art World Championship. The owner, who holds the title, was not present, but I received a cute latte art from the barista. The coffee and sweets were delicious, but it seems like they mainly focus on takeout (although there are about 5 seats available). They don't provide water, so it's more of a place to quickly enjoy your drink and leave.

Americano for 650 yen. The owner, who has won awards at various competitions, carefully prepares each cup. Made by adding hot water to espresso, the Americano is brewed with medium-roasted beans that have a fruity aroma and flavor. It's a very serious cafe that will make you feel energized!

We went to this place for a children's walk destination. It was just before 11:00, but the indoor seats were full. We ordered an iced cafe latte for takeout. You can choose the beans, and this time I chose a Brazil Colombia blend that had a bitter taste. As recommended, it was a strong coffee with a good bitterness and richness, and the acidity was mild. I would like to drink it again.

I stumbled upon a cafe that seemed to have a nice atmosphere. The staff spoke to me in English at first, but eventually recognized that I was Japanese. I ordered a recommended Cafe Mocha with slightly more expensive beans in large size. Summary: 1. Delicious 2. Time limit in the cafe 3. Mostly foreigners 4. Overall, it was a good experience. The cafe is not very spacious, so I recommend visiting with just one other person. Thank you for the meal.

· Cafe Latte ¥600 · Sakura bean paste and red bean cheese cream sandwich ¥600 I visited during the cherry blossom season. A cute and comforting cafe latte, and a cafe that warms your heart as you leave. Located in Inaricho, Up to you coffee @uptoyoucoffee0219. During the cherry blossom season, they have adorable cherry blossom cups and cherry blossom sweets. It's also close to Asakusa, so you can take a walk around the area on your way back from the cafe. They also have canelés, which have a crispy outer layer...!! The staff are easy to talk to, and with delicious cafe lattes, you'll definitely want to visit again.

Looking forward to latte art and espresso tiramisu at Up To You Coffee. I ordered the Sakura An's espresso tiramisu (700 yen) and a cafe latte (650 yen). I've passed by this coffee shop many times but never went in. The owner of this shop is amazing, having placed 3rd in the world latte art competition and is the Japan champion! Even other coffee shops known for their latte art have been mentored by this owner, so I knew they must be impressive. Despite it being a rainy weekday morning, the shop was full of foreign customers! It seems to be popular with people from abroad too. I ordered the Sakura An's espresso tiramisu that I saw on Instagram, along with a cafe latte. The staff kindly explained that they can do latte art on other drinks as well, and you can choose the type of beans for your latte. The latte art was so cute, with the date included. They even used a cherry blossom cup for the seasonal touch. It was a delightful detail. The espresso tiramisu was delicious, with the sponge cake soaked in two types of espresso. It may be small, but it was packed with flavor. I also bought some canelés as souvenirs for my family on the way out. I'll definitely be back for more latte art fun. Another enjoyable visit with delicious treats. Thank you for the meal.

I'm looking for a place where I can take a walk after enjoying cherry blossoms in Ueno Park, and I found a famous café known for its authentic coffee. The café was full inside, and the owner seemed very busy. This time, I had a café latte for ¥600 and a canelé for ¥350. The café latte was really delicious. The depth, aroma, and richness were the best. The canelé was also tasty. It seems like a good choice for a souvenir as well.

UP TO YOU COFFEE is a cafe located about a 10-minute walk from Inari-cho Station. It is run by the 3rd place world Latte Art champion and Japan champion. The interior of the cafe has a unified wooden design with a cozy atmosphere, including decorations like dried flowers. The staff's service was polite and welcoming. I tried the following items: Sakura An and Azuki Cheese Cream Sandwich - a cute and perfectly sized treat with a moist texture and delicious Sakura An filling, perfect for feeling the arrival of spring. Matcha Latte - a super cute latte art with vibrant color and a mild bitterness, not too sweet and very easy to drink.

Seems to be the best in latte art in Japan. The lattes themselves are delicious too. They have two types, a dark roast blend of Colombia and Brazil, and a light roast Ethiopian type. The light roast reminds me of a single origin taste. Personally, I prefer the dark roast. The owner trained in Melbourne, known as a coffee mecca. The atmosphere of the shop is stylish, like Melbourne style. With this quality, if they were to open in Marunouchi, they could probably charge more and sell even better.

Tokyo: A trendy cafe just 3 minutes walk from Inaricho Station where you can enjoy stylish latte art from the world latte art championship. ☕️ ☑︎ Strawberry Panna Cotta 600 yen This dessert is not only visually appealing but also delicious! The panna cotta is rich and creamy, and the sweetness pairs perfectly with the tangy strawberries. ☑︎ Matcha Latte 650 yen I visited during the New Year and the latte art featuring a rabbit was too cute to drink. You can also request random latte art, which I loved so much that I didn't want to drink it. The seating is on a strict 1-hour limit, with reminders given 10 minutes before time is up. It was a bit disappointing that you couldn't relax and enjoy the atmosphere.

It is a popular cafe known for its latte art, but since it was a hot day, I ordered an iced cafe latte for 550 yen this time. It was just past 10:30 on the weekend, and the cafe was almost full, but I managed to find the last available seat. When I ordered the cafe latte, I was told that I could choose from two types of beans. One was from Brazil, and the other was a seasonal bean (I forgot the name), so I chose the Brazil one. I don't usually drink cafe lattes, but this one had a strong coffee bean flavor and bitterness, and it was very delicious. The cafe is small, with mostly single seats, and it doesn't have a vibe for lingering, but it has a cozy and stylish atmosphere. There are various dried flowers decorating the place, giving it a fashionable touch. The staff (maybe the manager?) was quite young but the cafe was lovely. They also have baked cakes and sweets like canelés. I would love to visit again.

On a Saturday around 10:30 AM, there was only one other customer in the long and narrow shop. The small yet stylish interior was cozy, and the service was polite. I ordered a hot cafe latte and a lemon jelly panna cotta from the dessert showcase. There was only one table, but I chose the bench-style seat by the wall as it felt calming. I first enjoyed the world's 3rd best latte art. It featured a bear wearing a hat? As I sipped from the bottom, the top part of the bear's face survived until the end (laughs). I usually limit my milk intake, so I don't drink lattes often, but the smoothness of the milk combined with the bitterness of the espresso was truly delicious. Feeling like having something sweet, I ordered the summer-like panna cotta. It came in a glass container with a ribbon, perfect for a treat. The atmosphere was lovely, and I could relax and enjoy my time there. It was a wonderful little shop.

Sandwiches and light snacks are also available, but the interior is small, making it a quick cafe. Upon arrival, there were only two groups of customers, but we were asked to sit closer together to accommodate potential future customers. The explanation was polite, but the crowded seating arrangement was a bit uncomfortable. I ordered a cafe latte for 550 yen, choosing the dark roast option. The dark roast was really intense, with a strong bitterness that I, a fan of bitter flavors, thoroughly enjoyed. The taste was impactful, awakening the senses with a lingering bitterness and a hint of acidity. The latte art was cute. I also tried the white chocolate canelé for 370 yen, which had a nice gooey texture and a perfect combination with white chocolate. The self-service for water and dish return was convenient, and the staff at the register were polite. The atmosphere was a bit cramped, making it difficult to stay for a long time due to the narrow seating arrangement and lack of privacy. However, if you are aware of this before visiting, it shouldn't be a problem.

I have always wanted to try carrot cake. Today, since I don't have kids, I finally got to enjoy it as takeout is not available here. Just like the food reviews I saw on Instagram, the cake batter is quite moist, it feels like it might bounce back when you stick a fork in it. The taste is not too sweet, with a good amount of cinnamon making it easy to eat. Despite being moist and dense, it didn't feel too heavy even after finishing it all. While it doesn't have a lot of ingredients, it was a very satisfying carrot cake. The coffee was also freshly brewed and delicious.

I had been interested in this barista, Okudera-san, after seeing him on Instagram for a long time. He has won many awards in the world of latte art competitions. When I arrived at the shop, sweating profusely, I couldn't resist and ended up ordering an iced latte. I plan to come back for a hot latte once the weather cools down a bit. The menu offers around 10 different drinks, as well as light snacks like sandwiches and cakes, making it a good spot for breakfast or a break time treat. The interior of the shop is quite compact, with three low tables for solo customers and one high table for two. Seating is available after ordering and paying. - Cafe Latte (Iced) @550 yen - Rich Baked Cheesecake @500 yen Photo taken with Nikon Z7II and NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S lens. The distance and table arrangement worked well for the photo. Situation: - Solo breakfast - Visited on a weekday at 10:25 am - Zero wait time for ordering - Sat at the seat closest to the entrance

The latte was delicious, but the chocolate cake was rich and moist with the perfect amount of sweetness that paired well with the latte. The coffee and cake pairing was exquisite. The interior of the shop is small, you order at the register in the back first, then find a seat. They only accept cash payments.

A few years ago, I had wanted to try grape and muscat panna cotta! This year, it finally appeared again, so I went. The shop is a bit of a walk from the station, especially on hot days... When I arrived, there were no other customers. The atmosphere was nice. I ordered and paid at the register first. I ordered the grape and muscat panna cotta and an iced cafe latte. They bring it to your table. The dish had a ribbon on it, still cute as always. It used two types of grapes and looked very appealing. It was a refreshing and perfect dessert for summer! Since it's still early summer and not grape season, the muscat was a bit sour but the red grapes were sweet. The panna cotta was delicious as always, and this time it was even better. The cafe latte was dark roast but mild and light. The place got crowded after a while, so I left early. Next time, I want to try the wheat-free baked cheesecake. A cute and cozy cafe to relax in! Thank you for the meal.

Near Kappabashi Shopping Street, I visited a cafe called "Up to you coffee" where the 3rd best latte artist in the world works. Although I didn't get to meet the artist in person, the staff was very kind and the latte art was adorable. I had a latte for 550 yen, made with a choice of two types of beans - a blend of dark roasted Brazilian and Colombian beans. I also tried their canelé for 350 yen, recommended by the staff. It had a crispy exterior and a moist interior, truly delicious! The cafe is a 9-minute walk from Inaricho Station on the Tsukuba Express line, and an 8-minute walk from Asakusa Station.

Every year I have wanted to visit this cafe during the muscat season, but I hadn't been able to. I finally went when they introduced their cherry blossom sweets. The cafe is located a short walk from the station, near the Kappabashi kitchenware street. I visited on a weekend afternoon and was lucky to find a seat easily. Upon entering, there was a quick order and payment system. I ordered: - Sakura bean paste panna cotta for 600 yen - Sakura white chocolate canelé for 370 yen - Cafe latte for 550 yen My friend ordered: - Strawberry panna cotta and cafe latte We were directed to use the table on the left as we sat down, and the items were brought to us. The presentation was beautiful with ribbons, and the latte art was very cute. Apparently, this cafe has the 3rd best latte art barista in the world. I chose a dark roasted coffee for my latte, which had a deep flavor with a good bitterness. The Sakura bean paste panna cotta had layers of bean paste, milk, jelly, and pickled cherry blossoms. It was delicious and had a nice Japanese flavor. The canelé had a crispy outer layer and a moist inside, with tasty white chocolate. Tokyo's canelés are expensive, but worth it. My friend enjoyed the strawberry panna cotta as well. There are many other items on the menu, and I definitely want to go back. Next time, I will try the muscat panna cotta for sure. Thank you for the meal!
