Tasuku Coffee — Restaurant in Kyoto

I discovered this coffee stand on instagram a few years ago and was intrigued by the aesthetics of the Cafe. When I decided to visit Kyoto this place was number one to visit above any temples or shrines. It is a literal hole in the wall. The sliding barn door opens to the friendly owner, standing and brewing a pour-over cup or pulling a shot of creamy espresso. In the mornings, if you come early enough, you get a free banana. The ambience of good conversations between the friendly locals and the low crackling vinyl playing while the owner brews another cup can't be topped. I haven't even mentioned the coffee, yet. It's delicious by the way. I knew going to Japan, that they take coffee culture very serious- the cafes in Kyoto take it to the next level. Tasuku made the best cup I've had all year. Highly recommend a visit. PS:...

The location is the best feature of this shop. Staff seemed a bit too busy to smile or look necessarily pleased with any form of questions regarding coffee. The price is quite high for a tiny coffee and reading previous reviews it seems the price has increased. The taste is a little thin as said by a previous commenter.

I think if they reduced the price a little bit and smiled more, they'd make a lot more money. The location is great for a river walk or trip to the mall so I think they can afford to be cheaper as I always see people lined up. However, businesses never think in...

Lovely place and delicious coffee!

Had one of my best experiences with coffee shops here. The barista was so friendly and kind, but it is evident that he is well prepared and had the opportunity to try a Flat White and a brew coffee.

The place is small and beautiful, so stylish in a very creative way.

You can sit inside or outside and pretty close to the coffee shop, you will find a river in case you want to enjoy a different environment.

It’s been an amazing experience, if you have the opportunity to visit and want to get a specialty coffee experience,...
