OOO Cafe
OOO Café – An Industrial-Style, Pet-Friendly Retreat in To Kwa Wan
Out of Office Living: A Spacious Urban Café That Blends Concrete Charm with Community in Kowloon
Situated in the relaxed and authentic neighborhood of To Kwa Wan, OOO Café is a true embodiment of its name – Out of Office. Designed as a sanctuary for unwinding after a long day, the café stands out for its raw industrial interior, spacious layout, and welcoming community presence.
Industrial Yet Inviting – A Café That Breathes With the Neighborhood
Occupying a corner site formed by the merger of three original shop units, OOO Café has been thoughtfully transformed into a generous, open-plan café that stays true to its surroundings. With its use of red bricks, concrete, and metal, the space evokes a sense of authenticity and grounded charm that resonates with the area’s working-class roots.
- Flexible Layout: Nearly all folding doors can fully open, creating a smooth transition between interior and exterior, encouraging engagement with the local community.
- Pet-Friendly Atmosphere: Pets are welcome here, making OOO Café a social hub for locals, pets, and friends alike.
- Natural Materials: Exposed finishes, raw textures, and understated design convey a sincere and organic environment.
Three Seating Zones, Infinite Moods – Designed for Every Moment
The space is divided into three distinct zones to accommodate various preferences and experiences:
- Low-Seating Area – Outfitted with camper-style seats, this perimeter zone opens directly to the street when the doors are folded away, extending the café’s boundaries.
- Red-Brick Bar Counter – A central counter where coffee enthusiasts can interact directly with baristas.
- High-Seating Private Corner – Tucked at the back, this space offers privacy and intimacy for deeper conversations or solitary coffee time.
From sociable gatherings to quiet retreats, OOO Café ensures that every guest finds their own rhythm.
A Local Landmark – Connecting People, Pets, and Place
As the only café in the neighborhood, OOO Café effortlessly blends into its motor-repair-shop-filled environment while still standing out through confident design. Its industrial materials and open-plan format reflect the soul of To Kwa Wan while offering a much-needed urban oasis to escape the routine.
