% Arabica Opens its First Coffee Shop in Taiwan
Located on the foot of Elephant Mountain.
Founded by Kenneth Shoji back in 2014, % Arabica has quickly expanded from its flagship store in Kyoto to become one of the fastest-growing specialty coffee brands in the world with over 120 branches. % Arabica made its overseas debut in Hong Kong back in 2017 with the opening of two concept stores at prime locations in the Star Ferry Terminal in Tsim Sha Tsui and International Finance Center in Central and later opened its first shop in Mainland China on the bustling Wu Kang Road in Shanghai. Continuing its expansion through Asia, the coffee chain now lands in Taiwan’s capital.
Nestled on the base of Elephant Mountain in Taipei, the small shop inherits the brand’s simple and refined style, boasting clean white interiors accentuated by red brick details. A retractable open-glass storefront invites guests into the space where visitors can enjoy latte art brews and browse a range of merchandise displayed on the backlit shelves.
Taiwan’s first % Arabica store is now open. Take a look at the store design above and find the address below.
