How on earth this shop not featured in everywhere? I feel like I hit a jackpot! I simply browse google maps for coffee and found this. When I arrived around 2pm, it was empty, only the ojisan owner. And the small space and old style deco and classical music had me at Konnichiwa! They had me at Konnichiwa! It’s my every dream come true. I don’t speak Japanese, and the owner only sells one menu so there is no need to converse anything, just watching him pouring out water and making coffee. It’s like a gibli anime I tell you. The coffee is very very pale (call amber) and does not taste coffee due to extreme light roast, but I don’t really care. I enjoy every moment of the 30 mins share my life with the old Ojisan, his place needs to get some UNESCO heritage or something (sorry I’m that impressed) I wish Ojisan all the good health and shares his coffee with more people to come. Oh it’s ¥600 now, see my pic, (so cute)

have you heard of amber coffee? It's a one of a kind, very lightly roasted coffee, brewed and served like tea at Coffee Arrow by this 80+ years old barista. The cafe is small with only 2 counter seats and 4 table seats. I was the only customer that time and had the privilege to sit at the counter to have a chat with ojisan with my very broken Japanese. He showed me newspaper cutting of his award and cited it's one and only kind in the world. To be honest, it doesn't taste anything like coffee and more like herby ginseng tea with very strong herb and grassy notes at the front, followed by mellow sweetness in the middle tone and finished off with a very lingering ginseng aftertaste. Do appreciate it like a tea instead of your usual coffee.

I’m surprised that it is not included in many of the tourist books. Cafè Arrow is quite a historical cafè and they only serve one product, ‘amber coffee’. The owner cum barista has been working here for 59 years focusing on his coffee. The famous and legendary Japanese writer Yukio Mishima (三島由紀夫) is a fan of Cafè Arrow and he started to fall in love with coffee here. The coffee here is as clear as water but with good aroma and taste. You just can’t miss this spot if you like coffee.

地元民で小学生の頃から店の存在は知っとったけど 40歳も過ぎて初めて行きました というのも山形から友達が遊びに来た際に一人で寄ってみて すごく雰囲気のよい店だったとのこと ただ、この情報がよくなかった笑

先日、昼に被る形でグランパレッタで映画を観たあと 地元の友達とお昼を食べる先を探しに辛島町まで歩いたところ 目的の店が激込みだったので折り返す形になった際 先ほどの山形の友達の話を思い出し あそこの店でもいい?前から行ってみたかったんよね と友達と入店しました

軽食ぐらいはあるやろ、と なんかナポリタンとかサンドウィッチとか むしろそうであってくれ と心の中で念じながらドアを押しました

入店時にはカウンターに先客2組がいましたが それぞれの机にカップしかありません ここで気付くべきだったんでしょう

引き返すなら今しかない、と

我々が着席するタイミングで左隣の老夫婦がお会計 ついでに珈琲豆を購入されていたこともあり マスターに説明を受けていましたが 相当年配のマスターの声が聞き取りづらいせいか なかなか時間がかかっています 店内の壁面を見渡しますがメニューは見当たりません 当然メニューも届きません

友達も腹ペコなはずなので 誘った手前こちらも焦ります お冷が出てきた! ホッとしたのも束の間 メニューが出てくる様子はありません そこにおもむろにソーサーを並べ始めるマスター ヤバい!仕掛けてきやがった!? 何やらカップにほうじ茶が注がれています あぁ、お冷とお茶両方出すタイプの店か などと思いながらしばらく啜っていましたが メニューは出てきません 間をもたせるため先ほど観てきた映画の感想などを軽く語らいます メニューは出てきません 私はまじまじと透き通った茶色の液体の底を見つめ そして愕然としました

我々は既に珈琲を飲まされていただと!?

私は想定した最悪の事態が現実となりつつあることを受け入れるにはまだ早いと 普段は不愛想と言われることもある私ではありますが 意を決し最大限愛想よく話しかけました すみません、こちらってメニューとかって…? お出ししている珈琲だけになります(ニコッ) までは聞き取れた気がしますが マスターの声が小さいせいか その後珈琲の説明してくれましたが こちらのお腹がすきすぎているせいか 何を言われれているのかよくわかりませんでした

私が逡巡している間に 友達は既にほうじ茶もとい珈琲を飲み終わっていました もう一組の先客は話されている言葉からして アジア系の外国人のカップルのようでした お前らはちゃんとここのシステム受け入れられてんのか!? マスターと意思疎通が図れるのか怪しいカップルを置いていくことに一抹の不安を覚えながら 我々はそそくさと店を後にしました

入店のタイミングが悪かっただけとは思いますが せめて、うちお食事とかできませんがよろしいですか? とか声かけてくれたらなぁ、というのが率直な感想です 老舗のお店ですし、皆さん口コミとか下調べされて 珈琲オンリーの店ということを受け入れて行かれる方が大多数なのかもしれません ただ一見の客に対して不親切設計過ぎやない? 今時スマホに翻訳機能ついているとはいえ インバウンドの観光客も多い中 トラブルにならないのか心配になりました

一生擦れる小話を1杯600円で購入できた思えば 全然低評価つけなくてもいいとも思いますが お腹も満たしたかったのに満たせなった 残念!という意味での星1つです

私は低評価の口コミから見るクセがあるので そのような方向けに注意事項として書きました

あと、店内はコージーでアットホームというよりかは 2畳台目の茶室のような緊張感を感じました マスターの雰囲気は柔らかい...
