    You will never be disappointed with the coffee brew from blue bottle. Ordered the cafe latte and it was thick and foamy with the right amount of caffeine kick into the system. Love the high ceilings with relaxed furniture pieces conducive for a casual catchup with a friend or two over coffee. The waffles look too delicious to give it a pass, even though we were there just to grab a quick cuppa before lunch, we decided to give it a taste and I must say, it does not disappoint. Do pop in and grab a cup of coffee and a waffle as a side whenever you are near the cafe.

    Absolutely amazing coffee, style and service. Very close from my hotel during my stay in Kobe, not too crowded like Tokyo’s blue bottle, not as expensive as Seoul’s blue bottle, staff speak good English, overall just perfect!!

    Great place to relax with a cup of coffee. Quiet, and has a good vibe. The patries are okay, but extra praise must be given for the friendly barista who went out of his way and made sure that our drinks were satisfactory.

    The blue bottle experience is consistent in every shop I’ve been to in Japan. Nicely surprised by the lovely high ceiling and interior decor which was highlighted by sunflowers. The baristas were professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Coffee selection was a bit limited on the rack. Ordered a hot latte with a single origin Burundi which was just lovely. Overall great experience, worth a visit and re-visit.

    Trendy coffee shop. Very minimalistic. Quality of coffee and other drinks very good. Limited selection of snacks which are tiny. All a bit overpriced. Polite service. Not quite sure about the hype

    Was surprisingly easy to get a seat as there wasn't a long queue. Nice latte art by the barista. Drink tasted alright. Staff speaks English.

    Trendy on social media but I did not get it. The coffee (hot latte and iced mocha) is great, but the price tag is high too. The souvenirs are some of the most expensive I’ve seen.

    Coffee was great and really nice vibe , friendly staff. Would love to come back here!

  • 5/5 Angus M. 10 months ago on Google
    Possibly the best coffee I’ve had in Japan so far. This is a serious but stylish coffee cafe. I had waffles with my coffee and highly recommend both.

  • 5/5 Julia D. 2 years ago on Google
    I came here around 1 pm on a Saturday while visiting Kobe. The cashier was super friendly and helpful when I asked what she recommended. I went with a cappuccino and a waffle. The waffle is to die for! And the cappuccino had a cute design! The interior is very modern, chic, and trendy with floor to ceiling windows. Great spot to meet with friends or go solo to get some work done!

    Lots of seating available. Some of the best coffee I have had in Japan, the latte's are comparible to good Australian coffee's from your fave cafe. I can't rate the food as I only ordered a chocolate cookie, it was nice and chewy though

    Favorite Blue Bottle in Japan, the space is full of natural light, always a bunch of fresh flowers and decent coffee of course. Plus very close to the harbor so it’s also good to take out.

    Great place for either a quick grab of coffee or staying in to work/read/lounge. The interior is minimalistic yet feels cozy at the same time! Delicious desserts and healthy options for a more filling snack!

    I am surprise to find Blue Bottle very close to my hotel. High ceiling makes the place airy and comfortable. Coffee was nice to wake me from the midnight flight.

    Great coffee with a great ambience. Located right within the luxury shopping district, a great place to stop by and grab a cup of latte. Highly recommended !

  • 5/5 Josh R. 1 year ago on Google
    The blue bottle feel. Modern with a focus on coffee. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Coffee is on the more natural berry side, however the espresso is clean and the average "coffee" taste

  • 4/5 tan wei w. 1 year ago on Google
    It tastes very good, especially the waffle and cookie. A bit pricey

  • 5/5 David M. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice espresso machine coffee and delicious small cakes. Modern and clean simple interior. As said by others the atmosphere is good for casual or getting work done.

👍👍 When in Rome do as the Romans do. When in Kobe, eat as much beef as humanly possible. I already absolutely love beef dons, so this one just felt like that but even more boujee.
