2050 Coffee

Every well-informed coffee kid should have already heard of Kyoto’s 2050 café. You’ll now be able to get the whole experience at its second store on Beach Road. Operated by the renowned Kurasu team, 2050 is all about future-forward, sustainability-first coffee, all the way from sourcing to serving. The café boasts chic industrial aesthetics, exposed concrete walls, and a key defining feature: sleek coffee dispensers. These gadgets dispense cold filtered brews like the single-origin iced Mexico ($8) with fruity and tea notes; as well as iced matcha latte ($7.50). For those who still prefer espresso-based coffee, the café serves the regular latte ($6,50) and Americano ($5.50) as well.
