Experience Nagoya's Coffee Shop Culture!

Komeda's Coffee is a popular coffee shop chain that originated in Nagoya. Over the past few years the brand has seen rapid expansion not only in Tokyo but all across Japan.
However, did you know that Komeda also has a sister shop that is still yet to leave Nagoya?
This Japanese-style riff on Komeda's Coffee is called "Japanese traditional sweets & green tea Okagean" and remains something of a rarity, with just seven locations around Nagoya*.
