Afternoon House at Umeda Sky Building

A take-away patisserie inside The Westin Osaka where you can build your own afternoon tea box.

Afternoon House is a take-away sweets shop tucked inside the lobby lounge of The Westin Osaka, within the Shin-Umeda City complex, opened in October 2021 to satisfy long-standing requests from fans of the hotel's elegant afternoon tea. The shop stocks over twenty hotel-made treats, from petit cakes and fruit-topped financiers to scones, quiches and seasonal specials, all crafted to bring a touch of luxury to your own home. It is best known for letting guests assemble their own bespoke afternoon tea box, choosing favourites so the at-home ritual feels just as considered as the one served on the lounge's three-tier stand. Beyond the daily line-up, the shop rolls out seasonal specials such as the airy Fluff DAYS chiffon cake range and Christmas-themed sweets, with the regular afternoon tea in the lounge itself shifting each season to highlight fruits like melon, matcha and pistachio. Orders are placed in advance, and the shop opens daily, making it a handy stop for an elegant edible gift or a quiet self-reward after a day of exploring Umeda. It suits anyone who appreciates hotel-grade patisserie, whether for a thoughtful present or a personal afternoon treat. Next time you are wandering near the Umeda Sky Building, pop into The Westin Osaka and let Afternoon House put together something sweet for the journey - Go Umeda loves a place that turns a simple takeaway into a memorable ritual.
