Komeda Coffee menu and rebrand changes

Entities: Restaurant Francobois · Komeda Coffee Co., Ltd. · Nagomi Café Okaage · Osaka Prefecture · Minoo City

Overview

In late July 2026 the Japanese coffee chain Komeda Coffee announced two separate developments. On 23 July it introduced limited‑time desserts – Blanc Noir and Blanc Neage – as seasonal variations of its existing Shiro Noir and Cro Neige items, pricing them between ¥660 and ¥860 and making them available at most locations nationwide through August.

A few days later, on 27 July, the chain disclosed that its shop in Minoo, Osaka Prefecture, would close on 23 September and reopen in winter under the sister‑brand Nagomi Café Okaage. Existing coffee‑ticket holders could still redeem tickets at nearby Komeda outlets, and refunds of ¥480 per ticket were offered. The announcement highlighted the brand’s ongoing operational adjustments while retaining customer benefits.

Both snapshots reflect Komeda Coffee’s short‑term product launch and simultaneous store‑rebranding strategy across Japan.
