Caffè Veloce - Namba West — Restaurant in Osaka

Café veloce was our go to cafe for a nice and inexpensive matcha latte. The atmosphere is nice and not too loud. Since we didn't eat there I don't know how the food is there but their beverages are really good. (As I said if you are just thirsty and searching for something "cheap" to quench it.)

The 4 stars on food is because I can't make a judgment about it since I haven't tried their food.

I went to Café veloce in different cities and their matcha was always good. (It can't be measured to "real" matcha drinks, but it's a good and cheap alternative, since I had really good matcha...

What I love about their floats was that the vanilla ice-cream took forever to melt, giving me so much time to enjoy each scoop with their tiny spoon. Iced Chocolate Float was my favorite because the sweetness was just right, while the Green Tea version was genuinely bitter. Cafe was very, very quiet and cozy, plus a lot of seats were available during our peaceful stay.

Smoking area was available towards the back and separated from the rest of the cafe with glass, but the scent of their puffs could still reach our table just by the counter. Good thing it...

A coffee shop chain present here in Osaka, and probably also in Japan (tho i never saw any other shop outside Osaka). It's a good place to have a bite and a coffee, even tho the coffee quality is good, and the food is too, the shop is not famous among youngster, and it's instead usually (80% vs 20%) filled with older people or business men. The shop here is near Namba and is still one of the few where there is a smoking tables area. Usual Japanese politeness among staff. Espresso is btw...
