Discover the charm of Alikwa, an enchanting cafe nestled in the quiet corners of Fukuoka, Japan. Just a stone's throw from the Shimoyamato Station, this delightful spot offers more than just a caffeine fix—it's an experience that warms the heart and soothes the soul.

As you step inside, you're greeted by a cozy ambiance radiating a welcoming vibe. With only four tables and a few seats at the bar, Alikwa cultivates an intimate atmosphere where every visitor feels right at home. Soft music lingers in the background, adding to the serene setting—a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Alikwa's menu, although limited, is a testament to quality over quantity. You’ll find delicious homemade sandwiches crafted with freshly baked bread, alongside the tantalizing flavors of Japanese curry. And don't forget to save room for what many have deemed a must-try: their delightful desserts—an absolute treat for the senses.

But it’s not just the food that captures the heart; it’s also the presence of the cafe’s resident charmers—three playful cats that add a layer of warmth and whimsy to the space. Guests have raved about how these felines make their experience memorable, with one customer sharing how they felt “chosen” by a cat, a delightful touch that truly encapsulates the cafe's unique character.

The owner of Alikwa is known for her kindness and attentiveness, ensuring that each visitor feels cherished. Customers have noted her willingness to engage, even going as far as to provide thoughtful explanations of the menu for those who might face language barriers. For cat lovers and food enthusiasts alike, this cafe presents a rare and beautiful combination—the perfect setting to enjoy a cup of carefully brewed coffee while receiving love from a furry friend.

As noted by a satisfied visitor, the atmosphere is both relaxing and lovely, making Alikwa a place where memories can flourish. With every bite, sip, and purr, you'll find yourself wanting to come back for more, and perhaps even bring a friend to share in the magic of this hidden gem in Fukuoka.

In short, if you find yourself wandering through the charming streets of Nishi Ward, make sure to carve out some time for Alikwa—your taste buds and your heart will thank you.

Недалеко от станции Shimoyamato, на окраине Фукуоки находится замечательное кафе Alikwa. В кафе всего 4 столика и пара посадочных мест за баром. Очень уютный интерьер, успокаивающая атмосфера, приятная музыка. В меню, которое написано на японском от руки на, буквально, клочке бумаги всего пара позиций: сэндвичи с домашним хлебом и японское кари, а также вкуснейший десерт и отличный кофе. Хозяйка кафе - и повар и официант, поэтому обслуживание не быстрое, но атмосфера в кафе не располагает к спешке :) в кафе много винтажных артефактов, например, часть мебели сделана еще в Чехословакии :) есть книжка про чебурашку и прочих советских персонажей (на русском и японском языках) Но самая главная фишка отеля - это два милейших котика, которые живут в кафе и ходят сами по себе :) Точные координаты: 33.588378, 130.312723

So peaceful and cozy. I appreciate that there are only three cats and they have plenty of places to hide. If you are lucky you will be “chosen” by a cat. The owner is very kind and welcoming. The food and coffee is thoughtful. I made memories here.

The ambience is very cozy and lovely. The owner is assisted by her 2 trusted assistants which are her cute cats! Will definitely come again. Thanks to the mysterious and very kind girl that helped me taking the beautiful pictures! Forgot to exchange ig or line

시내에서 조금 떨어져있지만 리뷰보자마자 여긴 가야된다싶어서 오직 이 카페만을 위해 새로운 동네를 다녀왔습니다 결과는 대만족 귀여운 고양이도있고 사장님도 엄청 친절하십니다. 고양이 장난감이 있길래 흔들었는데 사장님께서 안쪽에서 고양이가 더 좋아하는 낚시대로 가져다주셨습니다! 혼자 방문했는데 먼저 사진도 찍어주시고,저는 리뷰보자마자 스콘을 생각하고 갔지만, 언어가 잘 안통하더라도 메뉴 설명도 해주십니다ㅎㅎ 한국인이 얼마나 가는지는 모르겠지만 카페도 아늑하고 이쁘고 고양이를 좋아하신다면 적극추천입니다~:)

スコーンセットとスパイシーココナッツチキンカレーをいただきました。 スコーン、大きくて、美味しい クリームもブルーベリージャムもすごい美味しいですチキンカレーは、野菜が何個ものっけてくれてたんですけど、それが更に美味しくて、スパイシーだし、大満足でした。 え??コスパ良すぎん?? すごい。最後にですが、猫さんもだけど、音楽好きでしたー。癒されるー あ、入り口、くぐってはいります。

静かで雰囲気のある空間に店主さん1人と猫ちゃんが2匹、とても癒されました。 今回はカツサンドとスコーンと紅茶のセットを頂きました。カツサンドのパンは胡麻が練り込まれていてもちもち、カツもサクサク! スコーンもさっくりほろほろ。ジャムとバターとの相性抜群でどちらも大変美味しかったです! 猫ちゃんは自由気ままに各々過ごしていてとても可愛く、人慣れしていてお利口さんです。最後はお見送りまでしてくれました。 猫ちゃん好きにはたまらない空間でした。 また近々行きたいと思います。

모든 게 다 최고였던 곳입니다. 들어가자마자 반겨주는 귀여운 고양이들과 친절한 사장님으로 감동받았습니다. 매우 한적한 오후를 즐기기 좋은 곳입니다. 멀리부터 찾아오길 잘했습니다. 살면서 갔던 카페들 중에 최고입니다. 카페에서 사장님과 다른 손님들과 눈인사, 대화가 너무 즐거웠습니다. 언어는 통하지 않었지만 서로 고양이를 좋아하는 마음과 행복한 눈빛으로 충분히 대화가 가능했습니다. 이 카페를 방문한 순간은 제 인생 최고의 순간입니다. 좋은 기억을 심어주어 감사합니다. 사장님 친절하게 대해주셔서 감사했습니다. 잊지 않겠습니다.
