Japan Breakfast Map! Must-visit breakfast gems in Kyoto and Osaka.

Help! These breakfasts are so good, I’m willing to wake up early every day for them! Here are some heavenly breakfast spots I discovered in Kyoto and Osaka—each one is guaranteed to fill you with happiness 🥹 Near Kyoto’s Kiyomizu Temple, "Ichikawaya Coffee" is tucked away in a small alley. As soon as the doors open, rush in! Their seasonal fruit sandwiches are filled with light, non-greasy cream and incredibly fresh, juicy fruits 🍓. The aroma of hand-brewed coffee fills the air, creating the perfect local vibe. Make sure to go early, or you’ll end up waiting in a long line! In Osaka, "B Portland Coffee Roastery" offers an amazing breakfast set for less than 800 yen! You’ll get toasted bread, fried eggs, ham, and coffee ☕️. The staff are super friendly, and sitting outdoors in the sunshine while enjoying breakfast is so relaxing you won’t want to leave! Another gem is "Coffee Specialty Shop Rivoli," a cozy Japanese-style café frequented by elderly locals reading newspapers and chatting. Their toasted bread with double spreads paired with Kenyan coffee is simply divine! Even McDonald’s Sausage Egg McMuffin is juicier than back home! Four days are nowhere near enough to try everything—I want to revisit every single spot 😭. If you’re traveling to Japan, make sure to add these breakfast places to your itinerary!
