Gotcha. Starbucks, now with atmosphere!
Funny thing you should say that because IIRC there actually is a Starbucks on the left right around the corner (though with a traditional facade at least). Source: wife and I were there last year.
Kyoto has SUPER strict laws around building appearances. They absolutely do not want corporations coming in and fucking up the vibe.

As far as I know, a lot of these are small businesses. Mom and pop shops.
