WABI Coffee and Japanese tea Stand — Restaurant in Hiroshima

I loved this little cafe in Hiroshima! I came here on a recommendation and wasn’t disappointed. The owner is the most lovely Japanese women, who spoke great English, and was so warm and friendly. The cafe itself is a cool small space in an industrial feeling street right by the central station, so great and quite location to grab a drink. They had an absolutely excellent old school euro-pop style playlist going. And beyond that the oat matcha latte she made was for sure one of the best I’ve...

This place is a quiet masterpiece. The iced matcha latte was rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced – not too bitter, not too sweet. The wagashi (Japanese sweet with red bean filling) was delicate and fresh, pairing beautifully with the tea.

The staff prepared everything with calm precision, like a tea ceremony in motion. The wooden interior and peaceful vibe made it feel like time stood still.

A must-visit if you want authentic matcha...

I came here to plan my trip because I couldn’t find a place to sleep, and the staff helped me out for like an hour trying to find me a spot. They were so lovely! The matcha and green tea was also delicious! I bought them both! Definitely should visit this place! No problem...
