Nakamura Tokichi - Kyoto Station

Nakamura Tokichi Honten Kyoto Station is a cafe inside the JR Kyoto Isetan department store in Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto, serving Uji tea and matcha desserts. Its signature item is matcha parfait, and a free welcome tea is brought to the table before anything else. Lines are long at lunch, while the late afternoon and evening hours are relatively quiet. Finding the department store escalator from the JR Kyoto Station ticket gates is difficult.
