King Butterfly Cafe Introduction
The King Butterfly Coffee is undoubtedly a leader in the Chiayi coffee scene. One of the significant events in the Chiayi coffee circle in 2019 was the strong return of Roi Cafe, the King Butterfly. The artistic owner returned to his roots, setting up shop on the second floor of the "Hardware Warehouse" in the Chiayi Cultural and Creative Park, exuding the matured flavor of a decade-long endeavor. The Hardware Warehouse, built in 1930, was once the tallest building in Chiayi and is currently registered as a city-designated historic site. To present a deep color and texture reminiscent of classical oil paintings, the designer adjusted the color under various lighting conditions until satisfied. When the afternoon sun shines through the windows, the light and shadows on the red walls resemble the shining Bordeaux red wine under the lights, making it one of the most "beautiful" winery cafes in Taiwan! In recent years, King Butterfly Coffee has invested in more professional roasting upgrades, sourcing coffee beans not only from major coffee-producing regions worldwide, but also a small quantity from Alishan. The proprietor, Mr. Wu, is a professional photographer and one of the most skilled coffee roasters in Chiayi. He believes that the signature product of a coffee shop should be abstract, merely presented through the tangible substance of coffee. If you want to experience the beautiful flavors of coffee and urban culture in Chiayi, the King Butterfly is highly recommended. Address: 2nd Floor, Building F, No. 616, Zhongshan Road, West District, Chiayi City. Phone: 0903 898 995. Opening hours: 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM, closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
