The buzzworthy new dessert “Anywhere Door” CORN SHOT opened in January 2017. Within just two months of opening, it sparked discussions across Japan, garnered extensive media coverage, and became one of the hottest photo spots on social media.

Located in the fashion capital of “Harajuku,” just a 10-minute walk from the station.

With floor-to-ceiling glass windows and a sleek black-and-white interior, the shop boasts a clean, stylish design.

What is a “CORN SHOT”?



A CORN SHOT is a crispy waffle cone lined with chocolate on the inside, coated with playful toppings such as crispy cereal or marshmallows on the outside, and finally paired with coffee for a unique tasting experience. The cone replaces the coffee cup, offering an amazing new way to enjoy coffee—eat and drink at the same time. This all-edible CORN SHOT is not only mess-free and eco-friendly, but also delicious—a perfect win-win.

How to order?

First, choose your favorite cone cup flavor from a wide selection. There are options like dark chocolate, white chocolate, caramel, and marshmallow—so many delicious varieties that it’s hard to decide.

Next, select your preferred beverage. In addition to coffee, caffeine-free options such as cocoa and matcha latte are also available. Once you’ve made your choices, the barista will pour freshly ground aromatic coffee into the cone, creating your own unique, one-of-a-kind coffee. Please note, prices may vary slightly depending on the cone and beverage combination you choose.

An unprecedented new coffee experience.

The rich and creamy “Thick Chocolate Mousse Flavor” features slowly melting chocolate that enhances the sweet depth of the coffee, while the smooth cocoa aroma is simply enchanting.

The colorful “Chocolate Frosting Cream Flavor” is a bestseller at the shop. With its silky, thick texture and exquisite taste, it’s a flavor you won’t forget.

The “Nutty Chocolate Flavor” has a hint of mocha, offering a refined aroma and smooth texture that leaves a memorable impression.

We highly recommend pairing it with freshly toasted marshmallows. The soft marshmallows and crispy cone create a delicate, melt-in-your-mouth texture with just the right amount of sweetness that’s simply irresistible.
