Kenaize Cafe Ltd — Restaurant in District of North Vancouver

As someone who lives in Hong Kong and frequently travels to Japan, I have very high standards when it comes to matcha and chai — and Kenaize Café honestly serves some of the best I’ve ever had.

Their matcha latte is earthy and smooth with a clean, authentic flavor — not overly sweet or artificial. The chai latte is warm, spiced just right, and perfectly balanced. You can really taste the quality of ingredients in everything.

Don’t skip the baked goods — the matcha white chocolate cookies and muffins are outstanding. Everything is made in small batches, fresh, and full of natural flavor.

Highly recommended for anyone who loves quality drinks, natural flavors, and...

And last but not least, the maple chocolate mania cake was the perfect little treat. Ugh, it was so good. Thank you Kenaize Cafe for the perfect little lunch, we will be returning customers! (I could not find a way to rate anything on Uber Eats, so...

We were exploring Vancouver prior to an Alaskan cruise, and ended up wandering in here for coffee after a disappointing breakfast nearby. The coffee was excellent, but the people were better!

The lovely woman and young man inside (I assumed the owner and her son?) gladly exchanged our American money for Canadian, estimating the exchange rate in our favor. She proceeded to ask about our plans for the day, explained the local bus schedule and how to get a pass (we'd been paying for uber so far), and doted on our kids the whole time we were there.

I wished for more time in the city if only to visit...
