Kitahama Retro

北浜レトロ

Kitahama, Osaka · 大阪

A narrow Meiji-era brick building on the Tosabori riverside, saved from demolition and turned into an English tea room with a stand of scones and a river view.

Why it’s worth it

Ask for a window table upstairs. The Naniwabashi bridge and the water are directly below, and it is the calmest hour you will spend in central Osaka.
