[@Jordan-inJapan]

Thanks for the video, Paolo. I have to say, coffee culture has come a LONG way in Japan since I first moved here 20 years ago. Coffee shops back then were either dark, dingy places where old men sat and smoked or overly-ornate, flowery places serving expensive coffee in tiny cups. Now there’s this whole coffee-shop ecosystem and we can get decent coffee anywhere - even the convenient stores serve pretty good drip coffee now.

[@amariluna]

Thank you for this video Paolo. As a lover of good coffee this is very important information to have for my next trip there.

[@anorvelle]

Hi Paolo and Maiko! Thank you very much for all of your videos. They were very helpful when my daughter and I went to Japan in 2019. I thought I'd put out there a mistake we made while we were grabbing a cup of coffee one morning. I think it was near the outside door of a department store, but it was a coffee shop next to a pastry shop. There were tables all around. To our American eyes it looked like a shared space where a coffee shop and pastry shop allow customers to enjoy both in a common area. So we grabbed a pastry, took a couple of steps over to the coffee shop to get our drink and sat down at a table to enjoy both. The coffee shop politely told us we were in their area and couldn't eat our pastry there. C'est la vie! We went outside and found a place to semi-cop a squat and enjoyed our quick meal.
