Hello Kitty Cafe to open in Vancouver this week & here’s a taste of what’s to come

This one goes out to all who grew up loving Hello Kitty. The city’s newest themed dining experience is heading your way in the form of a Hello Kitty Cafe, which is officially opening its doors in Vancouver this week!

Modelled after the beloved Sanrio character, the Hello Kitty Cafe experience offers diners a selection of freshly baked treats from a ‘supercute’ menu, including hot and iced drinks, seasonal goodies, and desserts.

Aside from the grand opening announcement, the cafe’s socials have been radio silent since popping up near the end of last summer. So the anticipation has certainly been building!

Oh, and all the Hello Kitty plushies and merch you could dream of!
