Oidé Coffee

Oidé Coffee: A Japanese-Inspired Specialty Coffee Gem in Vancouver

Nestled just outside Granville Island in Vancouver’s iconic Waterfall Building, Oidé Coffee is the creative vision of husband-and-wife duo Kento and Rika Kitayama. Drawing from their Japanese heritage, the Kitayamas infuse Oidé (which means “come here” in Japanese) with a sleek blend of fun and sophistication, earning them a devoted local following. Originally launched as Iktsuarpok in Gastown and later reimagined as Oidé, the café has grown into a destination for coffee enthusiasts seeking a uniquely curated experience.

Oidé Coffee is renowned for its unwavering focus on specialty coffee—offering only premium espresso-based drinks and hand-crafted filter options on weekends, while adding Japanese-inspired matcha creations on weekdays. Every cup is meticulously crafted, and guests are treated to thoughtful touches like an amaretti cookie alongside their coffee. The café’s minimalist aesthetic pairs perfectly with its artisanal pastries, often highlighted on their Instagram. While Oidé’s coffee portfolio rotates with carefully sourced origins and seasonal blends, the house specialties and signature style consistently deliver a bright, welcoming vibe that stands out in Vancouver’s coffee scene.
