In Paris, K-Pop fans are legion. Yet there aren't that many spots dedicated to their passion. But the damage has been repaired with theopening of Kick Café, a brand-new venue designed to enable K-Pop fans to meet and mingle in a dedicated space. Here, you can even choose the group or song you'd like to listen to on arrival. BTS, Blackpink, Seventeen, Got7 or Monsta X... just ask! Set up as a real living space, this hot spot certainly lives up to the expectations of fans of Korean bands, but also of gourmets always on the lookout for new discoveries.
To understand the spirit of this place, we first need to look at its name. Kick stands for K-pop Is for Cool Kids. As you'll have gathered, it's first and foremost a place designed for K-pop fans, with a fine program of events including karaoke, k-drama screenings and lectures.
Kick Café also offers a range ofdiscovery workshops, including Korean language and cooking classes, to immerse you in Korean culture. We also take the opportunity to discover Korean products, with delicacies and drinks, not forgetting the inevitable goodies.
But Kick Café, is also an unusual coffee shop. Here, you'll discover ultra-gourmet, original drink recipes inspired by K-Pop groups. Matcha lovers are sure to be delighted with an excellent matcha latte, but you can also enjoy the I Purple You, a taro-based latte. Even more surprising creations await you, including the Neo Ade, made with aloe vera, cucumber, lime and lemonade, and the Moonlatte Night, made with espresso, charcoal, vanilla syrup and milk.
To accompany all this, homemade vegan cookies (matcha/white chocolate or chocolate chips) are also on the menu, as well as buttery shortbread and cakes, also homemade (yuzu poppy or black sesame), as found in South Korea.
Behind this new concept in Paris is Savannah, a K-Pop fan (as indeed are all Kick Café employees) who wanted above all to create a warm, friendly place imagined by and for K-Pop fans. Because K-Pop is much more than a musical style, it's a veritable philosophy that unites and unites a whole community around the world. A community that can now meet at Kick Café to exchange ideas, discuss and share their passion for K-Pop, as well as listen to their favorite groups without being judged.
So, would you like to enter the world of K-Pop?
Please note that it's been over 4 years since our last visit, so the place and experience may have changed.
