Cafe Bori is more than just a place to drink coffee; it has a unique concept based on agriculture, including the cultivation of barley coffee and buckwheat tea. You can feel the founder’s intention to provide a comfortable rest amidst the scenery of barley and buckwheat fields throughout the seasons. The interior of the cafe is designed to highlight its architectural beauty, and it was particularly impressive how the tables were arranged by the windows to allow for sunset viewing.

Upon entering, the marble stepping stones and the framed scenery create a picturesque atmosphere. The coffee is served as a liquid concentrate in mini bottles, allowing you to adjust the amount of water to your preference. The americano received positive reviews for its taste. The milk tea, however, was described as being a bit too sweet and not having a strong flavor.

In the outdoor area, there is a single tree that makes you feel like the protagonist of a sunset drama, serving as a great spot for photos. The contrasting colors of the exposed concrete exterior, the annex, the verbena flower path, and the green buckwheat field add to its beauty. In particular, the cafe’s mascot, the cat ‘Terry,’ looked like a doll while sleeping, but was incredibly endearing as it woke up, stretched, and drank water, earning great popularity among visitors. The fact that pets are allowed is also an attractive feature.
