Unir Specialty Coffee Umeda

Operated by Tomoko Yamamoto, who represented Japan at the 2019 World Barista Championship, Unir's Umeda location on the ninth floor of Hankyu Department Store brings competition-level espresso craft to the city's busiest transport hub. A roasting machine visible from the counter and a lunch menu prepared by a professional chef make this a fuller proposition than a typical department store cafe. The consistently high extraction standard and rare variety selection make it one of the most reliable cups in north Osaka.
