REC Coffee (One Fukuoka Building)

REC Coffee's One Fukuoka Building location sits on the 6th-floor Sky Lobby of the ONE FUKUOKA BLDG. in central Tenjin. The space is large and bright, with full-length windows, high ceilings, and 72 cafe seats spread across two levels. Partitioned seating areas and big tables make it a comfortable spot to set up a laptop, and reviewers specifically note the tables are well-suited for working.

REC Coffee is a Fukuoka-born specialty chain founded by Japan Barista Champion Yoshikazu Iwase. The menu leans heavily on single-origin pour-overs and espresso drinks, with hand-drip coffees starting around 700 yen and premium options above 1,000 yen. Light food and cakes round out the menu. Soy milk is available as a non-dairy alternative, which is standard across REC Coffee locations. Other dietary accommodations such as vegan or gluten-free food options are not confirmed.

The critical detail for remote workers is the limited opening schedule. As of early 2026, this location is only open on Thursdays (8:00 to 15:30, for their "Thursday Gathering" event) and on weekends and holidays (10:00 to 20:00). Power outlets are available at some seats but not consistently throughout the space. Wifi is expected to be available as standard for the REC Coffee chain, though speed data has not been confirmed for this branch. The building connects directly to Tenjin subway station, making access easy even on a quick visit.
