Komeda Tsukimi Festival starts in September! Roasted sweet potato burger, desserts, and drinks bring Japanese autumn flavors to the table

As soon as autumn arrives in Japan, convenience stores, cafés, and dessert shops gradually roll out limited-time menus featuring chestnuts, sweet potatoes, and moon-viewing treats.Komeda's CoffeeTo be held atSeptember 2, 2026It launched the "Moon Viewing Festival" seasonal limited-edition products. This year's theme is roasted sweet potato, including 6 items in total: the Moon Viewing Full Moon Burger, Teriyaki Burger, Hot Danish Ice Cream with Roasted Sweet Potato, Cocoa Baumkuchen Ice Cream Dessert, Coffee Jelly Dessert Drink, and Roasted Sweet Potato Au Lait.

For Taiwanese travelers, the advantage of Komeda is its many locations and relatively comfortable seating, making it very convenient to find a place to sit down for desserts and light meals while shopping. This Tsukimi Festival runs from September 2 to early October in limited quantities, making it a great choice for a limited-time autumn afternoon tea if you happen to be traveling in Japan.

The Moon-Viewing Full Moon Burger is back; you can choose it for a proper meal too.

The Moon Viewing Festival doesn't just have desserts; two burgers are great for lunch or dinner.Full Moon Tsukimi BurgerA large bun holding an egg-rich fried egg, cheese, a burger patty larger than last year's, and lettuce, paired with a sauce interwoven with the tanginess of tomatoes and the sweetness of onions. Priced from 870 to 940 yen, varying by location.

The other one isMoon-Viewing Full Moon Teriyaki Burger, using the same large bun, fragrant fried egg, hamburger patty, and lettuce, focusing on the sweet and savory richness of the special teriyaki sauce and mayonnaise. If you are looking for a light main meal during your travels that doesn't have a long wait and has a sufficient portion, these two options will restore your energy better than just ordering dessert. Some items contain spicy mayonnaise, which can be omitted upon request, so please keep this in mind when ordering.

Many branches, comfortable seating, great as a rest stop while traveling

Komeda's charm is that it doesn't feel like it exists just for taking photos. Many stores have spacious seating, and the drinks and meals have a substantial presence, making it a great place to sit down halfway through shopping to organize your haul, check the route to your next stop, or wait out the rain. Tsukimi Festival items will be sold at Komeda Coffee shops nationwide, except for some stores, and quantities are limited, so they will end once sold out.

If your itinerary includes cities like Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, or Fukuoka, the chances of coming across a Komeda's Coffee branch are quite high. It is recommended not to make it your sole destination, but rather use it as a flexible resting spot near department stores, train stations, or shopping streets. When traveling in pairs, sharing one burger and one mini dessert is much more satisfying than each person ordering their own dessert.

On the same day, there are also Japanese-style autumn desserts, which you can check out together.

Komeda's Japanese-style cafe brand will also launch a limited-time autumn menu starting September 2, featuring ingredients such as mushrooms and chestnuts. Items include mushroom fettuccine, chestnut Mont Blanc-style dessert, chestnut red bean soup, chestnut paste dumplings, and chestnut milkshakes, available until around late October. If you happen to come across a Japanese-style cafe during your travels, you can also consider it as another autumn dessert option.

The best way to enjoy the Moon-Viewing Festival is to fit it into a break during your trip. After wandering through the shopping street in the morning, have a burger for lunch; in the afternoon, when you want to sit down, pair a roasted sweet potato dessert with coffee. Unlike high-end dessert shops that require special reservations, it lets you directly experience the joy of Japan's autumn-limited products.
