Convenience Store Coffee

Convenience stores sell canned coffee and self-service coffee from coffee machines. They also sell drip bags and other coffee machines, but for the convenience of being able to drink it on the spot, canned coffee or machine coffee are the best.

Canned coffee is excellent for long-term storage because it's stored in a can, which is why it's popular not only at convenience stores but also at mass retailers and vending machines.

Self-service coffee machines grind and brew the beans on the spot in a coffee maker, allowing you to enjoy a fresh aroma and flavor.

Major convenience stores have coffee machines where you can drink delicious coffee for around 100 to 200 yen.
These coffee machines are designed to brew coffee that is unique to each convenience store.
7-Eleven has been offering self-service coffee on and off since around 1980.
Furthermore, Lawson and Ministop have been offering pre-made coffee since the 2000s.
In 2011, Lawson launched a cafe-like service with an emphasis on customer service, where staff serve freshly brewed coffee, under the concept of a "machi café."
