[Kato Coffee Shop] A Famous Coffee Shop that Coffee Lovers should Visit

This time, we would like to introduce "Kato Coffee Shop", which carefully roasts only the coffee of the quality that they are satisfied with from all over the world.

This is a long-established coffee shop in Nagoya that is loved by locals and people from far afield, as it offers a variety of light meal menus for lunch, including exquisite morning morning breakfast that draw lines from the morning.

Kato Coffee Shop is located about a 3-minute walk from Exit 3A of Hisaya Odori Subway Station. When you enter the store, you will be surrounded by the rich aroma of coffee.

There are counter seats and table seats.

Fresh and delicious coffee from all over the world

Kato Coffee was founded in 1986 (Showa 61).
They always have more than 20 types of coffee beans, mainly specialty coffees that have been evaluated by third parties such as Cup of Excellence award beans and Q grade certification.

Above all, the commitment is freshness. Only coffee that has been roasted for less than a week is sold at the store, so you can always enjoy freshly roasted coffee.

They are very popular on mail order sites! The annual users of the mail order site are popular with hundreds of thousands of people,
In the past, it has received awards such as Rakuten's "Shop of the Year" for 13 consecutive years and Yahoo's Best Store Award 3rd place in the drink category.

Enjoy a cup of excellence coffee!

If you visit Kato Coffee, you should definitely try the "Cup of Excellence Coffee". It is a coffee that has won the prestigious title "Cup of Excellence" given only to the highest quality coffee.

At Kato Coffee Shop, it is served as it is on the server, and you pour it into the cup yourself. We want you to enjoy your coffee slowly, so it comes in two cups. This is a nice service!


When you order "Today's recommended coffee", a piece of paper with beans information is also included.
If you collect 10 of these papers, you can get a free cup of "Today's recommended coffee".

The 7th, 8th, and 9th of every month is the day of "Cup of Sacredness". You can buy it at a much cheaper price than usual, so be sure to check it out!

There is also a coffee chart that collects points. If you record every time you drink coffee, you can see the type of coffee you like. Please try making your own coffee chart.

Queue is promised! Morning breakfast time

Nagoya set 550 yen (tax included)

Speaking of Kato coffee shop, it is also known that there is a line in the morning breakfast.
You can choose from 4 types of menu: "A set", "B set", "C set" and "Nagoya set".

The “Nagoya set” is especially popular. A set of coffee, Ogura toast, and a boiled egg. Rye bread is used for the toast, and sesame bread is used for the C-set German dog. Coffee is brewed one cup at a time with paper drip.


Also try the cinnamon sugar for a taste change. Red bean paste and cinnamon are actually very compatible!

Morning hours are from 7:00 (8:00 on weekends and holidays) to 10:30, but even if it's crowded, if morning breakfast line up by 10:30, you can order morning breakfast.

*Currently in shortened hours, 8:00 a.m. -

Not just morning breakfast! Exquisite snack menu

Kuranda sand 440 yen (tax included)

Kato Coffee Shop also offers an extensive food menu. The Kuranda Sandwich is the most popular menu item with many fans. The combination of the generous amount of eggs, lettuce, cheese, and tomatoes is outstanding! It is a great choice for those who are hungry for a hearty meal.

Kinshachi Coffee Zenzai ¥605 (tax included)


Enjoy the easy-to-drink “Shachi Blend” with a good balance of richness, bitterness, and sourness, topped with ogura, chestnuts, and plump shiratama dumplings.


Gold leaf is attached to the chestnuts, giving it a typical Nagoya look.

The famous Haruki Murakami also ate coffee zenzai, and in his book, he says, "It seems a shame to limit it to Nagoya City".

This is a delicacy that you should definitely try.

1$ coffee that changes with the yen exchange rate

At Kato Coffee Shop, you can have take-out coffee starting from $1. The price changes slightly depending on the yen exchange rate of the day.

This is M size. On this day, $1 was 110 yen, so M size was 178 yen. I'm happy to be able to buy a quick and delicious coffee before commuting in the morning.
