Coffee Outside Kyoto

The Plan

We meet, ride bikes, and enjoy coffee outdoors.

The Schedule

Every First Saturday morning. (January = 2nd Saturday)

Since we can't use fire in the park, pick your style

  • Manual Brew: Bring hot water + your dripper or Aeropress. 
  • Thermos: Brew at home and bring it ready-to-drink. 
  • Easy Mode: Buy a can of coffee on the way. 
  • Tea: Tea drinkers are welcome too!

March 7, 2026

Come celebrate the start of spring with a morning ride and a fresh brew. Whether you are a daily commuter, a road cyclist, or just like riding your mamachari around town, everyone is welcome.

I know that lots of you cyclists post on Instagram only pictures of your bike, so don't worry, I'm not going to post anyone's picture online, only bikes and mugs :).

📍 THE PLAN

When: Saturday, March 7th
Meet: 7:30 AM at Kyoto City Hall show on map
The Ride: A short, casual cruise to the park. The focus is on the community, not the miles!
Brew Spot: Nakadachiuri Rest Area (Kyoto Imperial Palace) show on map

♻️ LEAVE NO TRACE

Please remember to pack out all your trash, including coffee grounds, filters, and cans. Let's leave the place spotless!

🌧 RAIN POLICY

If the forecast looks bad, I will post an update on my Instagram Story and here by 8:00 PM on Friday. If we get rained out, the official rain date will be the following Saturday, March 14th!
