Joys Coffee Roastery
Coffee shop
👍👍 Great coffee with a super friendly owner. Very accommodating to foreigners, but if you also speak Japanese, he can tell you a lot about coffee and the industry. If you're looking for Hawaiian coffee in Japan, or you need your fix near Nijo station, this is the place.

Ninja Experience Cafe Kyoto Gion
Cafe
👍👍 We had a lot of fun here. We learned how to throw throwing stars, use blow guns, and some moves with the katana. It's great for young kids and adults alike. The hosts were extremely nice and accommodating. We feel that if we're ever attacked by ninjas we should be ready to fight back successfully.
