cafe yorimichi

Welcome to Cafe Yorimichi, an enchanting little spot nestled in the heart of Moji Ward, Kitakyushu. This cozy cafe is a celebration of culinary simplicity, bringing you exquisite dishes crafted with care and precision. With its quaint ambiance and delightful flavors, Cafe Yorimichi serves as the perfect retreat for coffee lovers and food enthusiasts alike.

As you step inside, you're greeted by the warm atmosphere created by the intimate setting—where just 12 seats invite you to relax and savor each moment. The decor is simple yet charming, making it an ideal spot for solo diners who are looking to unwind or for friends seeking a cozy gathering place. The friendly master runs the cafe single-handedly, ensuring that each dish is infused with a personal touch that delights the palate.

On the menu, you'll discover a delightful selection of pasta and pizza. Regulars rave about the daily lunch special priced at an incredibly reasonable ￥790, which includes fresh salad, freshly baked bread, and your choice of a refreshing drink—coffee, tea, or orange juice. The gentle crunch of the salad, dressed with a light Japanese-style vinaigrette, complements the satisfying comfort of the pasta options on offer. One customer remarked, “The pasta with its rich yet balanced flavor is just heavenly.” If you’re in the mood for something more substantial, the lunch also features drio (baked rice dishes) and, as an extra treat, you can indulge in a slice of fluffy chiffon cake adorned with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for just an additional￥150—a sweet ending that makes every bite feel indulgent.

But that's not all; the cafe is also a hidden gem for bakery aficionados. Although stocked with fewer choices later in the day, the selection of freshly baked breads is nothing short of delightful. Customers have described the pastries as “so delicious” and “exceedingly wonderful,” making it a must-visit for anyone looking to please their taste buds with sweet delights. You can also grab some freshly brewed coffee from a renowned roaster in Itoshima—perfect for those who appreciate a good cup alongside their pastries.

However, be prepared for the occasional wait during peak hours, as the one-man operation works diligently to serve you with care and attention. As echoed in reviews, while portions may lean towards sizes suited for lighter appetites, the quality and taste of the dishes more than compensate. As one satisfied diner expressed, “For this price and taste, I have no complaints!”

Whether you’re on a solo adventure or enjoying a friendly chat at the counter, Cafe Yorimichi invites you to take a moment away from the hustle and bustle of life. It's not just about the food—it's about the experience. So why not treat yourself to a comforting meal and an excellent cup of coffee at this charming café that truly makes your day brighter?
