Tucked away on a serene street in bustling Islington, Kissa Wa presents itself as a haven for those seeking understated yet authentic Japanese fare. The cafe's cozy interior, combined with welcoming staff, provides an inviting setting, perfect for a tranquil meal or a quiet coffee break. The menu brims with an array of healthy and innovative options, such as the celebrated balance bowl—rich with teriyaki chicken and aromatic ingredients, and an array of vegetarian dishes including a savory veggie loaf and delicate rice balls known as onigiri. Patrons also rave about the unique beverages like the roasted matcha and invigorating genmaicha lattes, enhancing the rich tapestry of flavors.

Outdoor seating complements the warm atmosphere during sunnier days, providing a relaxed outing for both humans and their canine companions.
