Ichikawa, Chiba, Japan｜Caffè Nil

Had a beautiful time here with senpai friends. The caffè is run by a great guy called Matsuda san who’s also a talented musician (guitar) and photographer, and his ‘shokunin’ approach really shines through in his coffee making from roasting, drip coffee, and even to their latte art. As his kouhai, you should know that I’m positively biased here, but on the flip side this also means I know the depth of his dedication and respect for the art of coffee, and there is no doubt that he, his wife, his family and artist friends beautifully managed to infuse it all in that cup of coffee, the music, and in the entire atmosphere of the place. If you’re the type of person who can enjoy the slow unfolding of time appreciating a good cup of coffee, pull up a chair by the counter and say hi to Matsuda san. You won’t be disappointed ☕️✨

The best iced cafe latte! So creamy. I also love their ABC ciabatta bread, ham & cheese croissant, and their lemon cupcake! Excellent service and ambiance, but for now I’ll have to make do with take outs! Happy 3rd anniversary!

Amazing place. It became my favorite place for lunch. The place itself is really neat and the staff super friendly. The atmosphere is just lovely and relaxing. The food is delicious including the desserts and they have excellent quality coffee. Personally I totally recommend the pastrami sandwich and the fondant au cholotat is to die for.
