About Kaede

Cosy Japanese cafe in a vintage brick Johnston Street space (formerly Admiral Cheng-Ho, rebranded 2022). Six-grinder specialty coffee bar with house espresso and rotating filter sits alongside a short clipboard menu of homestyle Japanese comfort food: chicken katsu sandos, onigirazu rice sandwiches, mini milk buns, and all-day teishoku sets with strong vegan and vegetarian options. Salvaged-timber fit-out, exposed brick, and a calm room suited to lingering over matcha or a light lunch. Walk-in daytime service only; no operator-owned website or published online menu URL found (web-presence attempt 1/3). Google Maps lists business_status OPERATIONAL with no permanent-closure badge; Localista and EatClub publish current hours (June 2026).
