[2025 Hirosaki Restaurant] Travel Guide for Starbucks Coffee - Hirosaki Park (Updated May)

Starbucks Coffee Hirosaki Koenmae is a regional landmark store that was renovated from an old building! When you go inside, the atmosphere is very calm, and even though it is an old building, it is clean and comfortable! I like the exterior of the building! If you go to Aomori Prefecture, please be sure to visit it! #SummerWeekendTrip #KeihanGroupCampaign #CheapTrip #CoupleTrip #Gourmet #GourmetTrip

📍 Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture There are several cafes scattered around Hirosaki City. Coffee shops have their own apple pies, and every one is interesting. This time, I went to a coffee shop that I had researched in advance and was interested in, and a cafe that has branches nationwide but whose building is a registered tangible cultural property ☕️ I will introduce them in order. [Coffee Shop Rubian] A coffee shop located about a 15-minute walk from the station It is run by the owner's father alone. The atmosphere is tasteful, but the owner is friendly. The menu ranges from coffee shop menus to sweets There is also a wide variety of drinks. I ordered apple pie and corn soup ⚫︎Apple pie You can enjoy compote apples and fresh apples. The fresh cream is not too sweet and is perfect for apple pie! It is a dish that I would definitely recommend. ⚫︎Corn soup A gentle corn soup with a milky taste There are small corn kernels [Starbucks Hirosaki Koenmae Store] The second store in Japan to be registered as a tangible cultural property (The others are in Kobe and Kagoshima) A wooden building built in 1917 as the official residence of the army division commander, it features a design that combines Japanese and Western styles. It also has limited edition products, so it's a must-see for Starbucks fans👀✨ #Aomori Prefecture #Hirosaki Tourism #Domestic Travel #Spring 0 Yen Trip

Hirosaki is famous as a cherry blossom viewing spot. This is a Starbucks near Hirosaki Park. The "Former 8th Division Commander's Residence" is the second store in Japan to be designated as a national registered tangible cultural property after the "Kobe Kitano Ijinkan". The entrance has a triangular roof called a gabled gable, which can be seen at shrines. It is a Western-style building that incorporates Japanese architectural styles. When you enter the store, you can't help but exclaim, "It's so beautiful!!" It has high ceilings and large windows 😳 and the hanging lights at the order counter are made of beech from Aomori. In the seating area, you can spend a relaxing time looking out at the Japanese garden. The backs of the sofas are decorated with Tsugaru Kogin embroidery, a traditional embroidery from the Tsugaru region of Aomori, but the store was full 😅 so I couldn't take a photo. From the other area, you can see Hirosaki Park. If the weather is good, you can sit on the terrace and see the cherry blossoms 🌸 in Hirosaki Park. The detailed interior was also wonderful, but I couldn't take photos because people would get in the picture, so please go and check it out. ✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲Starbucks Coffee Hirosaki Koenmae StoreAddress: 1-1 Kamishirogane-cho, Hirosaki City, Aomori PrefectureOpening hours: 07:00-21:00Parking: There is a parking lot next door.
