Welcome to Starbucks Coffee - Kyoto Seikadai, a charming cafe nestled in the serene area of Seika, Soraku District, Kyoto. This newly opened location combines the familiar warmth of Starbucks with the unique essence of Kyoto, creating an inviting atmosphere for both local residents and visitors alike.

As you step inside, you'll immediately notice the vibrant buzz that fills the air—tables occupied by students studying, friends catching up, and individuals enjoying their own peaceful moments. The ambiance is bright and welcoming, enhanced by the friendly service provided by the baristas who are eager to craft your favorite beverage. Despite its popularity, which can lead to a bustling environment, the cafe maintains a cozy charm, reminiscent of what you would expect from a quaint Kyoto establishment.

One of the standout menu items, as noted by customer Stephen Atkinson, is the delicious white chocolate mocha, a perfect blend that offers a sweet, rich flavor, ideal for an afternoon treat. Whether you're looking for a classic brewed coffee or a seasonal specialty, you’ll find something to satisfy your taste buds here.

The cafe is not just about coffee; it also boasts a convenient drive-thru option, which is particularly appreciated during busy hours, as mentioned by Y.S. PARK. Moreover, on sunny days, patrons can take advantage of outdoor seating, allowing for a refreshing experience as you sip your drink and soak in the Kyoto atmosphere. The reviews highlight how the space fills quickly, and it's advisable to secure a seat early, especially if you’re planning to enjoy your time in-house.

While the intimate size of the cafe may result in limited seating—something noted in reviews by hide and おかセシル—the cheerful vibe and attentive staff more than compensate for it. Visitors love the well-kept interior and the inherent beauty of dining in such a vibrant locale. The ambiance invites you to linger longer, making it a great spot for casual meetings or simply a relaxing break.

オープンしたのを知り、日曜日の夕方に伺いました。 多くの人で賑わい、駐車場も店内もいっぱいでした。 また少し落ち着いたら伺いたいと思います。 混み合っているにも関わらず、4人席を1人で確保しパソコンを広げている女性がいました。 モラルの問題だとは思うし、店側が悪いわけではないのですが、何かルールがあった方が気持ちよく利用できるのになと思います。 きっと見かけた方は、同じように思ったはずです。

精華町の新しくできたスターバに行ってきました。 新しくできたのが理由なのか、周りにカフェがあまりないせいか、いつもお客さんがいっぱいです。 お客様が多いときは、ドライブスルーも役に立ちます。 天気の良い日は外にもテーブルがあるので、ゆっくりお茶を飲みながら話ができます。 新しくできたところなので、きれいでサービスや店員さんがもっと親切な感じです。 今回はドライブスルーを利用しましたが、天気の良い日にテラスでゆっくりお茶を飲みたいと思いました。室内の 長いテーブルには勉強と働く人たちが座っていたのですが、もう少し広く建ててほしいという残念な気持ちもありました。

ドライブスルーあり、駐車場も余裕ある感じ。店内は明るく雰囲気は良い!でも席が少ないかなー。イートインなら先に席の確保をおすすめします。 スタッフの接客も良いですよ。

ドライブスルーメインっぽいスタバ。ただ、店内にも雰囲気にこだわっており、スタバにしては明るめなイメージ。 個人的には、国会図書館が閉館する18時以降に仕事や勉強する場所がなかったので、重宝しそうです。22時まで開いてるし、テーブルにはコンセントが付いているので十分かと。
