CHANIWA

Staff is so friendly even though we struggled with Japanese. The desserts were so good and the atmosphere was so calming. And staff even came out to help us take photos. Will come back again.

Awesome temple in one of the fanciest place in Osaka city! There was an event held by a local government from Nara, and I took my 13-month baby with me. The temple has a cafe right after you go through the entrance. The red benches were amazingly beautiful in the Japanese garden and there were some people remotely working using the wifi. I was a bit worried after having my daughter waking up and toddling around the garden and in the cafe, but the staff there were all so kind to the toddler who was enjoying her adventure there. The bathroom was super clean, no stinky old Japanese toilet! Honestly, some temples are not welcoming to mommies with babies in strollers, or toddlers toddling around touching everything. This temple has care and love for us moms and kids. Feel free to bring in your kiddos and enjoy the cafe as well as the temple itself and the garden among there!! Oh, and one last thing, there is a park with play ground equipments for kids around 2-6. It’s called “Horie Koen” , Koen meaning park. #easy with strollers #wifi #super clean bathroom with western-style toilet #Osaka city #Yotsubashi station #Horie park

A 10/10! We were shopping on Orange Street and craved dessert. We ordered two dessert sets that came with complimentary drinks. The matcha (without) milk was the best, perfect for those who appreciate pure matcha! The desserts were all well-presented, service was efficient; you feel like you’re transported into a Japanese house, savoring homemade treats. What an amazing experience!

What a great little cafe right in a heart of Horie. Joined Japanese incense workshop there and tasted green tea mixed with roasted brown rice. The cafe is in an actual temple (Manpuku-ji) and you can actually take a look inside as well. Japanese garden there is beautiful and you can have a sit down and enjoy the moment of serenity in the hustle and bustle of Osaka. They have great Japanese deserts as well and I will definetely try them next time when I'm in the area. Price is reasonable too. Highly recommended if you want to try the authentic Japanese tea experience in Osaka.

This place is expensive for dessert, but worth it if you like matcha. I especially recommend it if you don’t like matcha, as this might change your mind. The matcha is not bitter and has a great aroma. Regret not buying their matcha powder.

visited around late august. loved the view of the garden and the vibes of the cafe. definitely recommend their matcha tiramisu. the staff were really kind as well only downside is there’s a time limit to staying but it was not a big problem

My husband and I stumbled upon this cozy cafe on a rainy day in June 2023, and we instantly fell in love with it. We ordered matcha, orange juice, and a dessert, and it was the perfect combination. We had the place to ourselves, which made the experience even more special. Sitting there, listening to the rain and enjoying our treats, was so relaxing. It quickly became one of my favorite cafes in Osaka!

This cafe is beautiful, and relaxing. The quality of their items was great! The staff were super friendly and accommodating. Made us enjoy staying
