Purrrfect items for Cat People...or their kitties
Looking to up your cat game? Koneko has you covered! Check out our cat-themed apparel, jewelry, stationery, and more.
A cultural hub for Cat People
Maybe we’re biased, but we believe that Cat People are curious and creative – and a little different than most. That’s why Koneko has a program of unique cultural activities and events designed specifically for the feline-inclined.
Koneko means "kitten" in Japanese, and we love to celebrate our Japanese roots. Each month we offer a range of fun Japanese-inspired events like sake tastings and Japanese cooking classes. But everyone knows that cats can be silly...so we can too! There's no better way for a Cat Person to unwind than our Celebrity Bingo Night or Drag Queen Karaoke battles -- the first of their kind in the world. And don't miss our Kitty Brunch, every Thursday and Friday morning. The only thing better than our homemade Nutella waffle is our homemade Nuttela waffle plus 20 cats.
Our events change weekly, so please join our mailing list and we'll keep you posted via email, or check out our calendar and make reservations here.

Koneko is a fun and flexible location for private events. We’re a memorable setting for birthday parties, book signings, press events, film screenings, photo shoots, art openings, and more. After all, what gathering wouldn’t be more fun with the addition of 20 hilarious cats?
