Found on the second floor of the Forest Square Sengawa, this establishment aims to provide visitors with an inviting and spacious atmosphere where the culture of Finnish coffee can be enjoyed right here in Japan.

With a focus on creating a serene place for people to unwind, customers will be treated to expertly crafted coffee and delicious pastries, promising an authentic Finnish experience that calms the heart and soul.
The Unique Café Culture of Finland
Finland holds the distinction of being the world’s highest coffee-consuming nation per capita. The Finnish coffee shop serves as more than just a venue to grab a caffeine fix; it functions as a communal gathering spot where individuals can relax, converse, and often take a moment for themselves.
The concept of a 'coffee break' — known as
Kahvitauko in Finnish — is a cherished custom among Finns, marking a dedicated time to step back from work and savor a cup of coffee. This practice helps to refresh and rejuvenate, forming an essential part of daily life for many.
The Menu at Robert’s Coffee
At Robert’s Coffee, guests can look forward to a unique selection of beverages and baked goods that highlight Finland’s rich culinary traditions:
- - Drip Coffee: Featuring a fruity and light roast, these beans are imported directly from Finland. Known for its enjoyable acidity, this coffee epitomizes the Finnish love for drinking up to 7 cups a day.
- - Cinnamon Rolls: Referred to as Korvapuusti in Finnish, these uniquely shaped cinnamon rolls offer a lightly sweetened, rustic flavor that makes them a perfect companion to coffee.
- - Café Latte: Combining fruity acidity with creamy, chocolate undertones, this specialty latte is crafted with velvety steamed milk, providing a moment of bliss in every sip.
- - Gelato: Made with a special recipe from Finland, this homemade gelato boasts a rich, smooth texture and natural sweetness that transports your taste buds straight to the Nordic region.
