The cosy, heartwarming first book in the multi-million copy bestselling series.
What would you do if you could travel back in time? More importantly, who would you want to meet, maybe for one last time? Toshikazu Kawaguchi's Before the Coffee Gets Cold, translated from Japanese, explores this age-old question . . .
In a cosy back alley in Tokyo, there is a cafe which has been serving carefully brewed coffee for more than one hundred years. But this coffee shop offers its customers a unique experience: the chance to travel back in time.
Prepare to meet four visitors, each of whom is hoping to make use of the cafe's time-travelling offer in order to:
- confront the man who left them
- receive a letter from their husband whose memory has been taken by Alzheimer's
- see their sister one last time
- meet the daughter they never got the chance to know.
But the journey into the past does not come without risks: customers must sit in a particular seat. They cannot leave the cafe. And finally, they must return to the present before the coffee gets cold . . .
'This book broke my heart, took the pieces, and put them back together in a messy and beautiful way. . . ' - well.read.woman on Instagram
Continue the beautifully moving storytelling with Tales from the Cafe, Before Your Memory Fades, Before We Say Goodbye, Before We Forget Kindness and Before I knew I loved you.

Before the coffee gets cold
The structure is unique in that each chapter delves into a different customer who seeks to change their past, confront a regret, or find closure. However, the time travel aspect isn’t glamorous or adventurous - it's rather somber and contemplative, with the clock ticking as a constant reminder of time’s unforgiving nature. Each individual’s story feels personal, touching on universal themes of love, loss, and the “what-ifs” of life. The idea that one can only visit the past for a brief moment and that the coffee must be drunk before it gets cold is a beautifully bittersweet concept, one that will undoubtedly prompt readers to reflect on their own experiences and choices. It leaves you with a sense of nostalgia and reflection, urging us to appreciate the present before it slips away. It's a reminder that sometimes the most meaningful changes don't come from altering the past, but from finding peace in the present. -

I enjoyed reading this book -...
I enjoyed reading this book - even though its theme turns and turns around itself once in a while. The writing style kept me reading till the very end. It's totally worth it.
