    A very cool Starbucks near Kitano Ijinkan Great architecture too. The interior is so pretty and different from the other ones. Totally worth a visit (go upstairs) There is a clean and modern bathroom too.

    If you come right when it opens at 8am you have it to yourself, venture upstairs for nicer views & seats. Set in this historical house in a quiet neighborhood this shop is well-worth a stop-in. Lovely old antique seating & furniture. Katie Perry etc on my visit, but I f they kept the music to jazz or classical it would add more to the atmosphere & experience.

    Very different vibe from any other Starbuck outlets we've been to. The decor and architecture is very European-styled, and the ambience is very soothing. Apologies for only posting exterior shots as my memory card got corrupted n I lost quite a number of photos with it. 😅

    One of the top Starbucks in Japan, in terms of decorations, architecture and designs. This is located within the stretch of nice buildings which are more European in style. Kobe is one of the earliest cities within Japan that opened up to foreign influences and you can see that in terms of cuisine available, buildings and culture. Back to starbucks, this is a two storeys building, with the settings of European influences. The services and coffees are typical of Starbucks. People are friendly and standard English to order Starbucks are easily understood.

    This Starbucks is probably the coolest one I have traveled to in the world. I love to grab a seat in one of the second floor rooms and relax with a book and a coffee. Sadly seating can be hard to come by later during the day as this location does draw attention and a crowd from people traveling to and from the Kitano neighborhood in Japan. The customer service is great and the menu has enough English for travelers to get by.

    Starbucks in Kitano is a cozy spot with a nice ambiance. The coffee is consistently good, and the staff is friendly and efficient. It's a great place to relax and enjoy your favorite brew.

    Enjoy the vibes in this starbucks outlet. It is not the usual building but with a mixture or European and Japanese architecture. A nice place to chill after walking around for the day.

    The design is trully unorthodox of Starbucks, in a good way. Vintage house turned shop. Super nice

    I love the architectural design of this shop. It is really relaxing and feels like you are in Europe. This the best starbucks shop in Kobe.

    Unique building with western style, the exterior and interior is very cool. Very crowded when I went there, so have to queue and can't have seat because the place isn't that big. But overall it's a perfect place to stop by.

    beautiful starba~~~~ I want to buy kobecup but no stock 🤣

  • 4/5 ARBN 1 year ago on Google
    This place is a reatired building forming a part of the whole experience when visiting the area. Definitely worth going for a cup here to start/complete a visit to the historical area, esp. as it’s located right between the area with the many old buildings and sannomiya station.

    Unique Starbucks outlets in Kobe, Japan. With old European style outlet, recommended for meeting and enjoy coffee.

  • 5/5 Jaeyong L. 6 years ago on Google
    Love the atmosphere. It reminded me of old houses back in New Zealand. Luckily when I went there in the morning, it wasn't as crowded but I could see people coming in every minute. A great place to stop by in Kobe

    One of the best Starbucks in the world. Pretty elegant and historical. It's worth to stay a whole afternoon with smell-good coffee, sunshine, and the history. Would absolutely visit again if visiting Kobe.

    Starbucks in a converted heritage house previously owned and residence of a prominent American who lived there in the early 1900s.
