Located in the tranquil neighborhood of Nishinokyo, Cafe Collabo is a hidden gem that perfectly blends the serenity of nature with the warm ambiance of a cozy cafe. As you step into this charming spot, you're greeted by a breath of fresh air—literally. The cafe is surrounded by lush greenery, offering a refreshing escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. The thoughtfully designed interior boasts Karimu sofas that invite you to sink in and linger over your favorite beverage.

Cafe Collabo specializes in both coffee and tea, ensuring that there’s something for every palate. Guests rave about the exceptional quality of their coffee and the delightful aroma of their teas. According to a delightful review by 'Chocoまみれ', the Continental Royal Milk Tea is a standout; although it carries a slightly higher price tag, the flavor and experience are well worth it. Pair your drink with one of their beautifully baked tarts, which have earned a reputation for being simply irresistible. You might want to try the homemade roast pork bowl, but be prepared for a bold flavor that some have found a bit too strong.

The true charm of Cafe Collabo lies in its welcoming atmosphere, largely attributed to its friendly owners. Customers have described the owners as warm and hospitable, creating an environment where you can feel utterly relaxed. As 'Excursions Japan' aptly puts it, the owners foster a lovely atmosphere where friendly chats and comfort food come together seamlessly. What’s more, on days when the weather permits, take advantage of the outdoor seating to enjoy the sights and sounds of the garden, which features cherry and maple trees—perfect for sipping your tea while contemplating the changing seasons.

Reviews also highlight the cafe's serene capability to serve as a reading nook, with few tourists allowing for a great space to unwind with a book. The inviting terrace area further enhances the experience, making it ideal for both solitary reflection and social gatherings with friends or loved ones.

Whether you're a local looking for a peaceful retreat or a visitor seeking an authentic Kyoto experience, Cafe Collabo invites you to indulge in the pleasures it has to offer. Stop by for a comforting drink and let the soothing environment work its magic on you. You may find yourself wanting to return time and again, just as many others have expressed in their heartfelt reviews.

For a truly enchanting experience, Cafe Collabo is not just a place to eat but a community hub, where you can enjoy the simple joys of life, surrounded by nature's beauty and the warmth of friendly faces.

住宅街にいきなり森林浴浴びれるカフェが現れびっくりしました。カリモクのソファにどっぷり腰をおろし、癖のないとても美味しい珈琲をいただく。観光客は来ないのでゆっくり読書が楽しめます。テラス席も素敵です。

後ろ髪引かれる何度でも訪れたくなる紅茶のおいしい森林カフェ もう十分ゆっくりまったりしたのに会計しようと立ち上がると店主が「ゆっくりしてってください」と言ってくださる こんなことを言われるカフェは日本中探してもここだけじゃないでしょうかね、分け隔てなくみんなに言ってらっしゃる、素敵だなって思います ここは紅茶の香りがとても高くておいしいです コンチネンタルロイヤルミルクティーはちょっとお値段しますけど飲んで絶対損はしないですよ タルトも非常によく焼かれていてすごくおいかったです 店主と息子さんなのかな?2人でされているようでどちらも穏やかで素敵な方でした 庭に桜の木と紅葉の木があるので四季折々の風景を眺めながら寛げます。 お店にも一台車が停められますが隣に大きなコインパーキングがあるのでそちらに駐車する方が入れやすくて出やすいと思います 若い方からご年配まで1人でも何人かで来ても寛げるいい雰囲気ですので皆さんも是非後ろ髪引かれに行ってみてくださいきっとお気に入りのカフェになると思いますよ

病院の帰り、小腹が空いたので入ってみました 自家製焼豚丼を注文。 メニューに載っていた写真とかなり違ったので、食べる前から‎う~んという感じでしたが、やっぱり私の口には合いませんでした^^; 醤油が効きすぎて辛すぎました…。 ケーキやCafeメインのお店なのかな? とはいえ、お店の中も外もオシャレでいい雰囲気のお店でした

Lovey little cafe! The owner was a wonderful and friendly older man who made me feel very comfortable. The hot chocolate was one of my favorites ever. The sandwich was fresh and warm, but I just wasn’t a fan of the large amount of egg… but that’s more to do with my taste haha! It’s definitely more of a lunch cafe

Best caffe I ever found in Kyoto. I live in Kyoto and in 2 years couldn't find anything better than this for coffee, tea and cake. Selection of cake is not that big but everything is Soo tasty and good. Suggested.

気になっていたオムライスをランチに頂きました。味もとても美味しく直ぐに食べることが出来ました。 おそらく店主さんかな?って方が優しく笑顔でゆっくりしていってねと行って下さりとても心地よかったです。 お店の雰囲気もとても落ち着きがあり、どこかオシャレなお店になってます。次はティータイムで足を運びたいですね。
