The Best Brunch Spots In Kyobashi, Osaka

Elizabeth Lee

As one of Osaka’s main business and office districts, Kyobashi is largely visited by white collar workers. An understated nightlife area after dark, the area has many cafés and coffeehouses that you can visit for brunch, before heading over to the nearby Osaka Castle Park for sightseeing and shopping at Osaka Business Park. Here are our favourites.

1. Aloha Table

Cafe, Restaurant, Tapas, French, Japanese

As its name suggests, Aloha Table is Japan’s take on Hawaiian cuisine. The restaurant’s décor combines a modern-industrial aesthetic with the laid-back vibe of Hawaii, creating a relaxing ambience for brunch. They serve food such as loco moco, grilled chicken, salad rice bowls with Japanese or Polynesian ingredients. If you’re after more typical brunch foods, they also have options such as French toast and tapas with various toppings and fillings.

2. Café Eikokuya (カフェ 英國屋)

For coffee lovers, Café Eikokuya is a great choice for brunch because they serve fantastic coffee at reasonable prices. They import coffee beans from all over the world, and they roast their beans daily, to varying degrees depending on types of beans, and the varying tastes of customers. For food, they have simple sandwiches, as well as waffles that can be served with butter and syrup, or with dessert items like ice cream and fruits. If you’re looking for something filling try their curry rice.

3. Hanakyo (花京)

Bar, Japanese

Another tiny ramen shop, Hanakyo is a great brunch place that gives you a taste of local life in Osaka. With only nine seats, it is one of the best ramen joints in Kyobashi, earning praise from locals and travellers. They have a rich, homemade soup base, and their ramen is made to order, so the noodles are hot and fresh when served. As it can get crowded at lunch and dinner times, we recommend going a little earlier or later than typical meal hours to get a seat.
