  • Where is the world's most beautiful Starbucks? Japan, of course.
    In Toyama city's Kansui Park is a shop that has won awards for it's design, but it's also the location that makes it beautiful. Those big windows overlook a lake in a park, the building resting upon grass, surrounded by sakura trees. The fresh air off the sea of Japan and the beautiful sunsets over the nearby Japanese Alps can't be forgotten. I could sip a hot cappuccino all day here.
    But wait! Starbucks newest shop in Kyoto (Ninenzaka) is a traditional tea house that looks centuries old! It's hard to tell it's a Starbucks until you see the sign. Inside, it's like going back in time. You definitely feel Kyoto's historical vibe sitting on tatami sipping macha tea ... lattes. This may also be the world's most beautiful shop.
    Hakodate in Hokkaido is home to what many consider to be the "coziest Starbucks in the world". It's got a fireplace, wide open rooms and stairs, natural hard wood floors and a beautiful deck that overlooks Hakodate Bay. It's super cozy!
    Yeah, visiting Starbucks is certainly one attraction for many visitors because it seems more than just a chain coffee shop. To me, it a reflection of the world around us -- and a really good cup of coffee.

    I made this episode from a suggestion from a viewer in 2016 :) I also like Starbucks Japan because it's the only cafe chain that is non-smoking and has excellent coffee.

    Only Japan can turn StarBucks from a generic chain coffee shop to a luxurious michelin star-like cafe joint.

    While the Starbucks store in Toyama is definitely very beautiful, the sad thing is that the city of Toyama itself has essentially

    The world's most beautiful Starbucks - serves the worst coffee. That place deserves a better establishment.

    I was born in Toyama and it seems to developed a lot.I remembered Toyama as farmland and place where it snows a lot.Maybe hometown bias but Toyama Starbucks is better than Kyoto one.

    I vaguely remember going to another Starbucks in the Philippines which was high up and had a view f a volcano, it was just as good as this

    It would be more aptly titled, "Japan's" Most Beautiful Starbucks. And they were indeed beautiful. However, America is home to some beautiful Starbucks cafes as well. The one in the heart of Newport, Rhode Island, is grand in it's architecture and over-the-top with good vibes inside!
