As a minimalist traveler, I love to go to many coffee places around the world.
This time, I would like to introduce you "SCHOOL BUS COFFEE STOP" located in Osaka, Japan.
If you click on the COFFEE tag on top of this blog, or here, you can read the articles about coffee places around the world.
It's coffee time bro.
Great place to enjoy espresso-beverages
This place offers a lot of different types of espresso-based beverages.
They do offer pour-over but according to the barista, their most-ordered drink is FlatWhite.
If you do not know about Flat white, it's a very popular espresso beverage in Oceania countries such as Australia and New Zealand.
It's almost the same as a cafe latte but more with the formed milk on top of the cup as flat as possible; that's why this is Flat and White (espresso+milk beverage)
I ordered flat white with their original espresso blend beans.
Inside the shop
What I loved about this coffee place is the interior and the books.
Inside the shop, you can see the wooden-based interior which reminds the Japanese people of the elementary school age because the chairs they're using are probably from the elementary school.
Also, there are lots of books and magazines about architecture and coffee.
Even though I can brew a cup of coffee in my place, I love to go to the coffee shop for morning coffee pretty often because as written in the article Minimalist lifestyle tips: Coffee for your morning routine makes you amazingly comfortable, minimalist lifestyle and I'm drinking coffee as a routine is very related together.
If you are tired from jobs and other things happening in life, a coffee shop is the best place to detox all those stress.
The Menu
What they offer is as below.
- Pour-over coffee
- Short Black (just a doppio espresso shot)

Again, their most-ordered beverage is Flat white so if you are fine to go with espresso, just take it!
