This autumn, restaurant GRILL TABLE and HARBOR CAFE inside Kobe Marriott Hotel, along with crossfield with TERRACE LOUNGE in Osaka — all operated by hospitality company Positive Dream Persons — are serving a limited-time afternoon tea built around the season's chestnut and pumpkin, accented with fragrant caramel. Guests are invited to a relaxing, indulgent tea time as the cool autumn breeze sets in, from September 1 to November 30, 2026.
In Kobe: THE MARCUS SQUARE KOBE
Two restaurants inside THE MARCUS SQUARE KOBE, part of Kobe Marriott Hotel, are serving afternoon tea this season. Look out for the aromatic Kobe Kocha tea alongside tea from Ronnefeldt, the historic German tea house.
restaurant GRILL TABLE
Set on the hotel's 17th floor with a view over the city of Kobe, the dining room seats afternoon tea guests by the window for the best of the scenery, alongside a welcome drink served to open the tea time.
The lineup includes 11 kinds of sweets, among them a Mont Blanc made with French marron cream, along with a main dessert of rum raisin and vanilla ice cream and a separate plate of scones for a satisfying spread. Don't miss the savory made with pumpkin, either.
