If you find yourself wandering through the picturesque coastal town of Kaiyō in Tokushima, make sure to set aside some time to visit In Between Blues, an enchanting cafe that captures the essence of Japan’s indigo dyeing tradition combined with a modern cafe experience. Nestled at Matsubara-216-3 Shishikuiura, this charming establishment not only serves as a beautiful space to relax but also stands as a tribute to local culture through its unique offerings.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a stylish yet cozy atmosphere. The decor reflects a fusion of contemporary aesthetics and traditional indigo elements—perfectly curated to create a serene environment. As you settle in, the view of the sea outside will mesmerize you, filling you with a sense of calm and contentment that complements your cafe experience. Whether you’re looking for a quiet spot to gather your thoughts or a vibrant environment to share moments with friends, In Between Blues offers it all.

But it’s not just the ambiance that enchants visitors; the remarkable charm of this cafe lies in its unique blend of creativity and artisanal work. As stated by a patron who goes by the name RYO RYO, the cafe is “とてもお洒落で綺麗なお店でした!(very fashionable and beautiful!)” and evokes a desire for a return visit, specifically for the indigo dye experience during the summer.

In Between Blues is not only a go-to spot for delicious coffee—crafted with dedication by the friendly owner, レキ—who has connected deeply with the local community through his passion for indigo. Customers often speak about the lovingly prepared coffee that pairs delightfully with small bites. You can enjoy a refreshing cup while taking in the stunning views, just as 小山としお noted about the cafe being a prime spot to witness breathtaking sunrises.

Moreover, what sets In Between Blues apart is its hands-on approach to the indigo dyeing experience. Visitors can participate in workshops that allow them to create their own pieces of art, immersing themselves in the local culture. As echoed in the review from awa atelierlamplight, they encapsulate the essence of Shikoku's blue world in a way that’s both engaging and transformative, allowing you to leave feeling more than just a customer, but part of a vibrant community.

If you’re in search of a cafe that offers more than just food and beverages, In Between Blues is your perfect destination. Prepare to be magically drawn into a world where craftsmanship meets tranquility, and every sip of your coffee can transport you to serene coastal views, all while deepening your appreciation for indigo culture. Once you visit, the richness of this experience will linger in your memory long after you’ve left.

Don’t miss your chance to soak in the beautiful atmosphere and perhaps even come away with your own hand-dyed indigo creation! Be sure to call ahead at +81 884-70-1488 for any inquiries or bookings. In Between Blues awaits to welcome you with open arms and a warm heart.
