Hey Hello Kitty fans, are you ready for this? The new Hello Kitty Grand Cafe is coming to the Irvine Spectrum Center on Friday, Sept. 14. Specialty drinks and lots of pink bows will be waiting for you!

Sanrio, the Japanese company behind Hello Kitty, is set to open its Hello Kitty Grand Cafe on September 14 at the Irvine Spectrum Center. The shop contains two concepts: a fast-casual cafe and a separate private room for reservation-only afternoon tea and nightly cocktails.

On the fast-casual side, guests can order the usual cafe drinks as well as sweets including made-to-order mini hot doughnuts (flavors include cinnamon sugar, matcha and cookies ‘n’ cream) and a pick-your-own four-piece set of Sanrio character mini cakes. There will also be merchandise for sale, including a gold bow handle mug.

Things get a bit fancier over in the Bow Room, a hidden reservation-only pink area with sleek Hello Kitty-branded fixtures; it will serve afternoon tea by day and offer cocktail service by night.

The tea service will cost $55 per person and will be available Wednesday through Sunday. It will include seasonal fruit, tea sandwiches, a buttermilk scone, mini cupcakes, Hello Kitty mini cake, macaron and chocolate cake in addition to honey, strawberry jam, whipped butter and Hello Kitty-shaped sugars.

The Bow Room will become a cocktail bar for guests 21 and older from 5PM Wednesday through Sunday.
