First Cafe Kon was one of the most memorable cafés we visited in Kyoto. The atmosphere felt calm and welcoming, with a beautiful blend of traditional Kyoto charm and modern café culture. The food and drinks were presented with so much care, and everything tasted fresh and balanced without feeling overly heavy. What really stood out was the peaceful ambience — it was the perfect place to slow down after exploring the city. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made the experience feel genuinely warm and relaxing. If you’re looking for a café in Kyoto that feels both cosy and refined, First Cafe Kon is absolutely worth visiting. Price per person: ¥1–1,000 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Such a great café to relax and take a break. The seating area is spacious and very comfortable, so it’s easy to just sit back and enjoy your time. The staff were super friendly and welcoming too. The drinks and snacks were both really tasty — definitely a nice spot to stop by if you’re in the area! Price per person: ¥1,000–2,000 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I stopped by this cafe to take a quick break after visiting the temples, and it was a great place to rest for a while. Honestly, I didn't expect much since it's right in the middle of a tourist area, but I was surprised that the smoothies were way better than I thought. Both the strawberry and mango tasted like real fresh fruit, not just syrup. It was so refreshing and gave me a good energy boost. Price per person: ¥1,000–2,000 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
