On December 15, 2025, a delightful new establishment, "Crepe and Espresso", will open its doors in Takatsuki, Osaka. This location promises an experience that blends the seasonal charm of the area with the delightful flavors of crispy crepes and aromatic espresso.

Located just a two-minute walk from Hankyu Takatsuki Station, the shop features a clean, white-themed design that exudes simplicity and freshness.

Exclusive Takatsuki Menu
"Crepe and Espresso" in Takatsuki will offer a unique menu that draws inspiration from local specialties and the changing seasons. This concept aims to create a cozy, comforting environment where customers can find joy in their visits. In addition to classic options such as butter sugar and chocolate melt banana crepes, the Takatsuki location will feature an original crepe using sake lees, celebrating local flavors.
Takatsuki’s Sake Lees Cream with Strawberry Honey
One standout item includes a crepe that incorporates high-quality sake lees from Takatsuki’s Kumono-chō "Shiboritate Shinshu". This homemade sweet sake cream offers a smooth sweetness and rich flavor, complemented by local ingredients such as agar-agar and honey harvested in Takatsuki. The finishing touch is the delightful honey drizzle, making this a must-try exclusive dish.
