Kuwana, Mie, Japan｜Beniya Factory

Great coffees, wonderful views and outstanding atmosphere! I absolutely loved the place! Well it’s rare to find a café in Kuwana area that is open late at night, but here’s the best one. But, the way to enter the parking is bit complicated and we passed by it once. You need to be careful.

BENIYA FACTORY along Route 258. It is an R20 shop that opens at night. It is an adult space like a bar, where coffee lovers gather night after night. There are various chairs in the store, mainly vintage. Everyone is looking for a comfortable chair to sit and relax. The perfect night to sit in a comfortable chair and stare at the night view in front of you. In the summer, we recommend iced coffee called Shekelat, which is made in a shaker, but first of all, I would like you to taste the espresso that is extracted by the owner who is a roaster (roaster). The flavor and richness are condensed, and the espresso here overturned my image of espresso = bitterness. Anyway, the owner's commitment to coffee is amazing. We have three roasting machines: direct fire, semi-hot air, and full hot air. In particular, there are only 15 complete hot air roasting machines on the market in the world. The owner is a former bicycle racer, and he is pursuing a grilling method that takes advantage of the characteristics of the beans. In addition to the roasting techniques, the interesting thing about this shop is that they are always looking for new discoveries and actively adopting new farms and beans. Coffee situation, history, technology, commitment... The more you listen to it, the more you will be drawn to it. Due to its location, car enthusiasts are also gathering, and once a month, a party is held during the daytime to see the cars. It is a mysterious space where the 0 magnetic field theory is whispered that the compass needle is not fixed for some reason.

I got a delicious cup of coffee. It seems that you can have coffee roasted on the first floor on the second floor, but at the entrance to the store on the second floor, you have to take off your shoes and change into special sandals before going up the stairs. I was simply amazed at the commitment to not bring in dust (laughs) The shop has a nice view and has a calm atmosphere so that you can enjoy delicious coffee and quiet time. The window seats are low and wide, like sofas, so you can relax. To be honest, it's not suitable for those who come to have tea in order to chat with a lot of people (laughs)
