Nice and unique drink concoctions. They will give you a buzzer and you will self collect when the number is called. Spilled a cup of iced cocoa at the high chairs facing the outside scenery. A nice lady from the cafe came to the rescue. She called for a cleaner to tidy up the mess. She asked what I had spilled - and voluntarily made another cup! This is service and customer focus at its best! Anticipating and empathising the needs of the customer. Well done, cafe SKY 40. Thumbs up and thank you!

We come across to this place after a long walk from sightsèing.The place was crowded with visitors either resting or ordering food. We decided to check it out the menu, We ordered a matcha float and matcha sundae for a drink. Frankfurter and takoyaki for a nibbles while watching the magnificent views far below when eating. Food was great and service was excellent. Highly recommended.

We had a good experience at Cafe Sky 40. Yes, the entry fee to the main building is overly expensive, but while you're there, you might as well enjoy it. We ordered a beer (Chimay Rouge for 600 yen) and two macha flavoured soft serve ice cream cones (300 yen each). Reasonable price, in my opinion, compared to other touristy sites we've visited. We sat at a stable next to a window overlooking the city below and had a nice relaxing time.

This cafe located in the 40th floor of the Umeda Sky Building is a must try. Pasta options are good even though it's just the microwavable ones. Seasonal coffee offers was fine. The view of Osaka skyline and the food makes a perfect combination during an evening visit.
