About this place
A generous helping of pickles comes with the ham and cheese hot sandwich. One diner’s memorable order at BUFFO MIMATSU Specialty Coffee paired a sandwich with coffee, followed by coffee soft serve. Another diner also noted the generous pickles in the ham and cheese sandwich. The menu describes this as a classic pairing of ham and melting cheese. For something more substantial, there is dry curry: not curry rice, but a hot sandwich filled with dry curry roux and cheese.
Coffee options include French press, cold-brew iced coffee and café latte. The French-press selection features beans such as Brazil Santa Elena and Indonesia Mandheling, with some varieties available hot or iced. One diner mentioned choosing the beans for an iced coffee included with a hot-sandwich set, making it possible to select a cup to go with a light meal. Café lattes can be ordered bitter or mild, with flavours including vanilla, caramel, Uji matcha and sugarcane. A diner who ordered a sugarcane latte with a doughnut found the doughnut mild in flavour.
For something sweet, there is coffee soft serve made with espresso, as well as a doughnut topped with soft serve. Some diners have added soft serve after a hot sandwich; it offers another way to enjoy coffee after a meal. The café is in Mizutani, Higashi Ward, Fukuoka, and opens daily from 11 to 23. One diner reported stopping by for coffee in the evening, so it is an option for a later cup as well as a daytime snack.
