KICO is quickly becoming a go-to morning spot in Bengaluru, offering an all-day breakfast experience that blends comfort food, café classics, and a strong sense of community. Backed by Yazu Hospitality, the space has been designed as a relaxed social hub where guests can drop in for coffee and stay through the day.

Serving breakfast from morning until evening, KICO’s menu is simple yet thoughtfully put together, with a focus on reinterpreting familiar dishes rather than reinventing them. The offerings move between global influences and local favourites, catering to both leisurely brunches and quick weekday meals.

Popular dishes include the Parsi-style Akuri Soft Scramble, a rich and spiced take on eggs, along with options like Forest Mushroom Soft Scramble and Smoked Salmon Scramble that bring in lighter, balanced flavours. The menu also nods to Bengaluru’s breakfast culture with Benne Dosa, served in both classic and contemporary styles.

Café staples form a big part of the experience, with sandwiches, croissants, and bagels such as the Caprese Croissan’wich, Smoked Salmon & Dill Cream Bagel, and Juliette’s Club Sando offering familiar yet indulgent choices. For those looking at something sweet, the Japanese Fluffy Soufflé Pancakes and French Toast made with Japanese milk bread add a dessert-like touch to the menu. Health-focused options like smoothie bowls and Quinoa Upma ensure there’s something for everyone.

The beverage programme is equally diverse, featuring wellness drinks like Green Glow and Beet Boost, alongside matcha-based options and kombucha. The café’s coffee programme, created in association with Nandan Coffee, anchors the experience with offerings like Vietnamese Iced Coffee and Cascara Lemonade.

“KICO was always imagined as a place where people would want to spend time, not just drop in and leave,” said Ranbir Nagpal, Founder, Yazu Hospitality. “Breakfast naturally became a big part of that because mornings in Bangalore are social. People meet, work, catch up and ease into the day.”

Adding to this, Atul Chopra, Partner at Yazu Hospitality, said, “We wanted KICO to feel like a space that evolves with the guest through the day. Breakfast is just the starting point, it’s about creating an environment where good food, coffee, and conversations come together effortlessly.”

While evenings at KICO shift towards cocktails and music, mornings remain its most relaxed and inviting side. With its easygoing vibe and thoughtfully curated menu, KICO is shaping up to be a favourite for café regulars, remote workers, and brunch lovers across the city.
