The flagship and global headquarters of the % Arabica brand sits just metres from Yasaka Pagoda in Higashiyama, opened in 2014 and credited with anchoring Kyoto's modern specialty coffee identity. The all-white minimal interior showcases over two dozen single-origin beans, all prepared on La Marzocco machinery by precisely trained baristas. Takeaway cups in hand, guests naturally spill onto the stone-paved Nineizaka lane below.
