Maeda Coffee Muromachi is a long-established coffee shop in Kyoto, where coffee culture has long been rooted. Opened in 1981 in a building that was originally a kimono shop, it continues to serve the same taste that has been passed down from generation to generation. The lunch recommendation is the old-fashioned specialty Neapolitan spaghetti, which is synonymous with the coffee shop menu. The sweetness of slowly sauteed onions and the tomato sauce with just the right amount of acidity are well mixed together to create a flavor that has remained unchanged since the establishment of the shop. ＋A drink can be added for 300 yen, so we recommend spending a relaxing time after your meal with a cup of coffee, a specialty of the restaurant.
