We had a fabulous, tasty and healthy lunch here today… and came back for their famous chocolate & sesame cake and a specialty latte (roasted matcha I believe?). Highly recommended! Great service, friendly staff, nice corner a bit away from the hustle and bustle. Thank you.
Quiet little Japanese café with great vegetarian options, Japanese style cakes and drinks. We had the balance bowl and hot soba noodles, and then cakes after. Wished it was open more days of the week!
The tea at Kissa Wa Café is definitely the highlight! We had the matcha and hojicha lattes, and both were aromatic and perfectly brewed. The food isn’t as flavorful as typical Japanese cuisine, but it’s great for those seeking a healthy meal. Their cheesecake is also excellent—soft, moist, and not too sweet. The only thing was the slow service. We waited up to 30 minutes for our food.
This is a small, cosy and dainty cafe located in a secluded area Islington which made this a lovely spot to go to on a miserable drizzly day. We arrived at 2pm, but sadly they ran out of 4 of the items they had on their menu which I found were unique and interesting. It was a shame, but more of a reason to come back at an earlier time. I ordered the balance bowl with teriyaki chicken and noodles. It quite filling, well flavoured - minus the chicken - and had a good portion size. My genmatcha latte was nice. The rice had a prominent taste than the matcha which is the only slight downside Burnt basque cheesecake was lovely and simple. Service was welcoming and friendly.
