Just right next to the Akita train station and below the Metropolitan Hotel. Have a lot of seats and you can enjoy the view of the train station.

My mother was looking to buy some coffee beans to take home to Canada and the kindest girl with glasses came and brought samples for her and I to try.

Another great Starbucks well located within walking distance from the Akita JR station and beside a good class hotel. The shops were closing pretty early due to winter season but Starbucks was still opened. You need to enter through a side door within the main door of the shopping mall. They had some Christmas promotion while we were there. Saw a number of students doing revision there as well. A good cup of coffee as expected from Starbucks with great pastries and cakes.

Starbucks at Akita station. Nice branch with very happy and friendly staff. On a Saturday morning, was a good place to relax before a Shinkansen trip. Wasn't very busy at this time either. Coffee was as usual, good. The ham and cheese baguette was super tasty and made for a filling breakfast.
