About this space

By day, it offers small-batch specialty coffee, artisanal teas, and light snacks providing a calm, welcoming space for locals, freelancers, and city dwellers to unwind or connect.

As evening falls, Kahii transforms into a moody, intimate space serving handcrafted and sophisticated cocktails, a curated wine list by our in-house sommelier, and a refined snack menu inspired by our sister venue, Kuro.

The space is ideal for cocktail-style events, private celebrations, brand launches, intimate tastings, or networking functions. With vintage interiors, flexible layout, and the ability to accommodate up to 40 guests standing or 18 seated, Kahii is well-suited for those seeking a warm, character-filled venue.

Venue hire includes access to a sound system, music options, and food and drink packages.

Kahii is a Japanese-style kissaten by day and a wine and cocktail bar by night offering a versatile and intimate space ideal for cocktail events, private functions, tastings, and creative gatherings.

Located in a heritage-listed building once home to tea and coffee merchants and The National Phonograph Company (founded by Thomas Edison), Kahii carries a sense of history and character that sets the tone for meaningful events.

But what is a kissaten? Originating in Japan, a kissaten is a vintage-style café that places a strong emphasis on quality coffee, comfort, conversation, and a relaxed atmosphere often accompanied by a thoughtful snack menu. Kahii draws inspiration from this tradition, even taking its name from the very first kissaten to open in Japan.

With moody interiors, curated coffee and wine selections, and a warm, welcoming vibe, Kahii is perfect for those looking to host an event that feels personal, stylish, and truly memorable.
