MIYAJIMA CAFE
Miyajima Cafe is the restaurant of Miyajima Coral Hotel located next to JR Hatsukaichi Ferry Terminal. The cafe is hard to miss with the red 1948 Packard Eight Touring Sedan permanently parked by the front door. The cafe is known for their plump burgers, but they are also known for their espresso drinks and original carrot cake. Sweet, moist and pleasantly carroty, their carrot cake pairs well with a cappuccino from their La Cimbali espresso machine. The menu changes season to season under the guidance of Aya Takahashi, a nationally recognized barista, who created some of their most popular items like their Espresso Banana Smoothie — a sweet, frosty blend of fresh espresso, bananas, caramel, milk, chocolate and ice.
Takahashi was runner-up at the Barista Grand Prix 2023, a national barista contest sponsored by the Japan Barista Association (JBA). Her motto is “delivering unparalleled joy to customers.” This year’s summer menu included lots of unparalleled joy with beverages like citrus tea soda and raspberry mojitos. Naturally, Takahashi finds great joy herself in the simple task of preparing a cappuccino or an espresso, but she is also fond of creating original cocktails. If you ask her, she might let you enjoy one of her most recent creations not yet on the menu.
Miyajima Cafe is open from 11am to 9pm seven days a week. A meal will set you back ¥1-2,000 and a drink around ¥500.
