Blac Sheep Cookies

Inside Blac Sheep Cookies

Blac Sheep Cookies is a cozy cafe tucked into the bustling arcade of Omotecho in Okayama's Kita Ward, where large, indulgent cookies take center stage alongside thoughtfully crafted drinks. This spot draws a mix of locals and visitors who gravitate here for a sweet treat paired with a quality cup of coffee — a combination that fits perfectly with a casual break amid shopping or exploration.

The cafe’s focus is on substantial cookies with distinctive flavors such as rich chocolate chunk, vibrant red velvet, and uniquely local touches like dense matcha and purple baked sweet potato. These cookies don’t just fill you up; they come with an artisan feel that’s balanced by an approachable sweetness, making them suitable for those who prefer their desserts indulgent but not overpowering.

Drinks pair well with the cookies, from silky cappuccinos to inventive frappes topped with mini cookies, merging cream and ice in a surprisingly light way. Visitors often time their visits to the afternoon when the arcade’s energy dips into a more relaxed rhythm—a good moment to settle in briefly, chat with the welcoming owner, or grab a treat to go.

Seating inside is limited, but the covered arcade outside offers a handy spot to enjoy your ice-cold frappe or a warm coffee on a crisp day. The atmosphere inside the shop blends modern aesthetic design with a feeling of local familiarity, where repeated customers often chat about seasonal cookies or their favorite coffee blends. The friendliness of the staff, especially the owner who engages openly with guests, adds to this sense of casual community.

Blac Sheep Cookies will appeal most to cookie lovers who appreciate bold flavors and generous portions, as well as to those who enjoy pairing sweets with expertly prepared coffee or unique frappes. Visitors looking for leisurely time spent with a distinctive dessert in hand will find this cafe a quiet, comforting pause amidst the lively shopping arcade of Okayama.

The Matcha Mochi Mochi (抹茶もちもち)drink was amazing and the red velvet cookie was outstanding! The owner is so nice and made my visit very memorable, wish this place was back in my hometown! Definitely give Blac Sheep a visit

This is a very well aesthetically designed cookie store that has great logos and marketing prowess. Their cookies are very large, and ultimately feel a bit too much "factory prepared" rather than an inhouse cookie. They are still good, but not the gourmet cookies you might be expecting from this type of store. The regular Choco-chunk was large and decently baked, sitting in a nice middle ground between a crispy and chewy cookie. It had lots of dark chocolate chunks, and in standard Japanese fashion is sugary but not overly sweet (unlike a traditional Toll House cookie). Their dark chocolate cookie was dry and incredibly crumbly, tasting more like cocoa powder than sweet. Each cookie is ¥500, so they're fun novelties, but are not the moist deep cookies that some might be expecting. Credit Cards Accepted

I am so happy to have found this place. In all of Japan that I have been to, from Fukuoka to Fukushima, this place has the best coffee anywhere. The cookies are the same as the cookies in Australia and taste absolutely amazing. The owner, Chinatsu, is so kind and friendly!!!! People like her are the reason why I love Japan. When I come back to Japan, this is the first place I want to come back too. I think everyone needs to try this place.

Fantastic cookie store with a lovely owner. Good variety of cookies and shakes, all very filling but not too sweet. Seating is limited, but there is free seating in the arcade in front. Has a great raspberry scone on weekends.

There’s this super cute and stylish cookie shop I always stop by whenever I’m out with friends! It’s really easy to find, and the inside has this cozy, international vibe. Every cookie is decorated with its own unique toppings, and they’re all just unbelievably adorable—not to mention delicious! The owner and staff are so stylish and cheerful, which makes the whole experience even more relaxing and fun. I was also seriously impressed by how smoothly they served foreign customers in fluent English. Not only are they amazing at baking, but they’ve got language skills too—so cool!
