Haraguchi Coffee — Restaurant in Yamaguchi

Highly recommended but it could be challenging to get inside during busy hours. About 6 seats at the counter and 2 tables with 2 seats. Since its a small cafe, the master denied few new visitors when it was full. I believe the cafe does not allow visitors to wait when its full.

Hidden in a quiet alley, Haraguchi Coffee offers unique experience with coffee made from hand roasted coffee beans in a cozy, warm and old school ambience.

I bought a bag of beans back home. Like other dark roasted coffee which presents intense, smoky and bitter aroma and taste, Haraguchi-san’s coffee is exceptionally silky with a decent amount of oil. Palate is complex and often finish with a scent of...
