Salon de AManTo

Quiet, cozy spot tucked away behind overgrown vines. International crowd inside, many language practice groups meet here. Curt but friendly owners who take their time with coffee and make their own cheesecake, pumpkin cake. Both cakes are simple and good. It's in a very traditional old house, you can see the old entrance stone in the middle of the cafe where they extended the roof. Great place to have a quiet rest in the middle of a big city.

The cheesecake and chai tea lattes are amazing! The vibe and atmosphere of this place is really aesthetic and the staff spoke English very well!

The cheesecake is good, the green tea au lait a bit too sweet, the man barely speaks any English which is endearing to me but challenging for people who speak zero Japanese. But this place is more about the atmosphere than about the food. If you are in Osaka for awhile or moved here and want a relaxing place with beautiful music, away from the noise, this is perfect. You can read your book and relax without rush

Came by this place at a friend's recommendation. Very interesting concept, kinda run down, retro maybe? You can even see the kitchen that was part of the original architecture. Food definitely not its plus point. Coffee wasn't up to mark, we ordered cheese cake, it was sold out so we settled for pumpkin cake instead. I don't recommend the pumpkin cake. The Cafe is manned by 1 and only guy who can speak some English. Come by if you want to take some Instagram pics but definitely not for its menu

The cheese cake very delicious and the orange juice so fresh..and not too expensive

What an interesting place! It's incredibly atmospheric, to the point where I don't even remember the taste of the food :) I wanted to examine every detail in the café.

Great place to put your feet up. Is this what things looked like before the 高度経済成長? Can't comment on all the food, but what we had was pretty ordinary, so maybe just stick to the drinks. But certainly good for a peek inside.

Lovely place tucked away in the corner of the street. Good place to come to experience what Japan homes were like back in the day. Don't worry though, the toilet is clean and modern. The toilet has a bidet and heated seating 👍🍑

Osaka is not a great place for Yelpers. Best of the best places are often written elsewhere. I came here because I had wanted something different, and according to 36 hours in Osaka, there is a section in town in Osaka that was from before WWII. My grandparents had gone to grad school in Nara, which is not far from Osaka, so on a Sunday morning I decided to take a stroll to the old part of Osaka. It had a very low ceiling and the houses had been kept from before the WWII. It was super quiet, which was a nice surprise because less than a mile away was the busy Osaka station. I sat down and ordered a wheat coffee. Freshly brewed, $2. I arrived at noon and was the first person to arrive. Some other people soon showed up, and they too wanted some freshly brewed coffee. I understand many Americans are strangely addicted to the Starbucks, and not just Americans, seemed like the world just couldn't get enough of Starbucks, but for me, it's small coffee shops like this makes me happy. I held back in tears as I drank my wheat coffee, thinking about and missing my grandparents, who were the best things that ever happened to me. I had been on my own since I was barely 12, and decades later, I find myself drawn to places where my most favorite people met more than 70 years ago. I pictured them speaking fluent Japanese, living in places like this, falling in love in this strange land. And that image made me so happy.

Really lovely cafe in the middle of a quiet neighborhood. Their teas were very good, especially the "Rankanka tea", which is made from an obscure fruit and apparently was reserved for royalty. They also served coffees and small food dishes. The cafe was divided into a traditional Japanese tea area (with mats to kneel in and no shoes allowed) and a more Western-style seating area in a second room (with chairs and shoes).
