Katabira Coffee

katabira coffee roasts with intention. that's the whole thing, really. in hodogaya ward, on katabiracho's quieter stretch of yokohama, this is a place built around the roasting side of specialty coffee, not just the serving of it. you don't stumble into a spot like this by accident, and the regulars who do find it tend to stay loyal in that particular way people get when they've stopped looking elsewhere. yokohama has its busier, shinier coffee corridors, but katabiracho sits at its own pace, and katabira coffee fits that rhythm. the standing it holds among people who know it says more than any promotional framing could. start with whatever's on the single-origin filter list that week.
