Our StoryA cozy corner of Kits,
A cozy corner of Kits,
going strong since 1989
Cafe Zen has been a Kitsilano favourite for over 35 years — a place where the food is honest, the prices are fair, and you always feel at home. We believe a great meal doesn’t need to be complicated or expensive.
Warm floors, chalkboard specials, and real food made with care. The neighbourhood spot that’s been here through all of it.
Fresh brunch & lunch daily — open 8 AM to 4 PM, seven days a week.
Honest, approachable prices — good food shouldn’t cost a fortune.
1631 Yew St — steps from Kitsilano Beach, heart of the neighbourhood.
