Meet Me in Gastown x Café Kitsuné x Water Street.
I took the opportunity to finally pay a visit to the latest chic Parisian-style [...] outpost of the high-concept international French-Japanese coffee shop and retail brand (one of fifteen around the world) for its famous aesthetic vibes by way of Tokyo.

Café Kitsune, 3814 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles (Silver Lake), CA 90026
Café Kitsuné is next store to the clothing brand, Maison Kitsune. It’s a coffeehouse and they actually roast their own coffee in Paris, Tokyo, and New York. The LA café serves coffee roasted in NYC.
I suppose their aim is to create a relaxing, stylish place to enjoy coffee, tea, and pastries before or after shopping at their clothing store. It is a stylish place. They serve their drinks and food on Café Kitsune ceramic plates and cups. There are fresh flowers on the tables in the center of the room. I wouldn’t say it’s welcoming since there was a sign that said it was a laptop/tablet free zone.
For coffee, they have drip coffee, espresso drinks, and soon, pour over. They also have tea, including matcha, chai, etc. And they have cold drinks – cold brew, juice, water. The pastries look familiar (cookies, croissants). I’ve seen them at other coffeehouses. Café Kitsune has the highest markup on them. I think the fox cookies must be exclusive to Café Kitsune since they feature their fox logo.
Fox matcha cookie ($5): a tiny cookie that they charge $5 for. Ridiculous. It’s like a butter shortbread cookie with matcha, soft in texture. It was fine but overpriced.
Flat white ($6): Larger than the usual flat white with pretty foam art. It was balanced and well-made though it did have a bitter aftertaste.
Their drinks are good but skip the pastries and cookies. And don’t bring the laptop.
3.5 out of 5 stars
