Every drink has gone down smoother than MiraLAX, but doesn't disrupt your guts. So far, every drink I've tried has been a 10/10. Also a great place to sit and write horror films that have extremely disturbing content! Cleanest bathroom in the valley, I could eat a Japanese ham and curry bun off the floor and not get sick (but I don't recommend doing it for legal reasons). Go try it, and be nice to the staff, or your sleep paralysis demon might come back. read more

I came early so parking was easy, and I had a seat right by the window. All of the pastries sounded so interesting and I settled on the miso carrot danish (divine) and the sudachi pie (also divine) the matcha cloud cream was just like the Alfred's one. My favorite part of it is that sprinkle of salt at the top. SO good. The ambiance was so good it had this retro homey vibe and the light was shining the right way so there was a rainbow reflecting through the glass and it was just such a cute morning I had. The service was good, everyone was kind. I can't wait to return. read more

Cute place, very crowded when I went. The matcha itself is sweeter than what I would like. I ordered the Cloud Matcha -- very creamy, a little bit on the sweeter side for my liking, but presentation was cute. Didn't try the pastries but some were sold out when I went. read more

If you haven't been here yet you are missing out! As a Cafe Connoisseur, I can happily confirm that Café Matcha is without a doubt the best matcha cafe in all of California, actually the entire U.S. Scratch that, the best in the whole damn world. Actually! This is the best cafe in the entire universe. There was this one cafe on Neptune but the space vampires ruined it... became way too bougie and it was way too cold, and they don't have matcha on Neptune! Also, the team there are no where near as nice as our local heroes at Café Matcha. I highly recommend the Hojicha, Green & Black or their legendary Coconut Matcha. You really can't go wrong with any of the delicious drinks at Café Matcha. They truly are the best in the business. read more

I tried the Cloud Cream Matcha and really liked it! If you like a sweeter drink, the Cloud Matcha is perfect. They use ceremonial grade matcha, it's earthy and smooth, and the cream foam is really sweet. The line was really long when I went, but it moves pretty quickly. They're in a strip mall so parking was really easy to find. Also love the cute retro diner vibe they have going on! read more

Café Matcha - Cloud Cream Matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Honestly the matcha here is solid with nice interior decor and the cream cloud was delicious but I have to dock 2 stars due to the extra small size of the cups they use. The cups are smaller than your standard small cups that every other coffee shop uses. These extra small cups are 4 inches tall and hold 8 ounces. After ice and the cream top you're left with about 4 ounces of matcha drink but are still being charged $8.50. At least bring the price down to $6.50 if you're going to pull a shrinkflation move on your customers. Thankfully I asked for light ice. Despite my drink being good I don't think I'd come again because I don't like feeling ripped off. read more

Specialty matcha cafe from Alfred Coffee. The aesthetic is super cute and retro, and parking is ample in the two-level plaza lot. They have a decent number of creative matcha drinks and even better Japanese-inspired pastries. Tried the green & black (chocolatey and creamy without a strong cold brew taste) and classic matcha cloud cream with vanilla (perfect sweetness and creamy level). Downside was the drinks were small for $8 lol. read more

Cafe Matcha is so aesthetically pleasing and beautifully designed inside. There are tiny tables you can sit for 2-3 very snug, a few bigger booths, and single seater areas for anyone who loves to chill solo on a cafe atmosphere. The matcha dishes an drinks are mixed in front of you. I tried their waffle with matcha syrup and an iced matcha latte. Both were delicious, although I have had better waffles and matcha. I would go again to enjoy with others, to chill, or to sit in a nice ambiance. read more

Great spot, the strawberry matcha cloud cream is so delicious. I also enjoyed the waffles. I was able to snag a table with an outlet at around 10am on a Thursday. A few of the tables have a a dedicated outlet which is pretty sweet. I def will be coming back read more

Café Matcha - Waffles, strawberry match could cream - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Big matcha fan. Love the way the store is set up, the aesthetic, and the menu. The match is not the best in LA, but it is definitely above par. Price a little high, size a little small. I found myself a bit disappointed at the ham/curry bun. On paper and the counter it sounded and looked lovely. But the actual pastry was a bit of a bummer (stiff) and the amount of curry was minimal. I'll be back to try more because I wanna support (and I am a matcha fiend) but not an out of the park first impression. read more

Delicious matcha but small portion. Nice vibe, very pleasant to sit and do a bit of work.

i waas sooo disappointed in cafe matcha. i have been wanting to check out cafe matcha ever since i heard about their opening. i finally decided to go to cafe matcha yesterday 03/28 and my original plan was to sit & eat at the cafe. i really wanted to try their matcha waffles. however, when i first walked in i noticed how minimal the seatings were. i honestly don't think the owner thought this one through. i mean the name within itself is going to attract a lot of customers so wouldnt you think to put a bit more seating options. i honestly hate the mini table that they have. it's so useless. the only thing you can put on top of the mini table is your drink. my original plan ended up not working out because since there wasn't any available seatings i wasn't able to try their matcha waffles. i only ordered their princess matcha and it was sooo disappointing. the way they make the to go drinks vs when you are dining looked soo different and soo much better. i don't know why the barista doesn't keep it consistent for both. i noticed the people who were dining in had their strawberry in the bottom of the drink and the rest was matcha. it looked so freaking good. but when i received my to go drink.. literally barley had any strawberry, he put it on the side of the cup so you can't really taste the strawberry?? it was not good at all. and honestly $8 for this tiny cup i expected much more..i was soo disappointed with my first experience because i had such high hopes for this place. i am a huge matcha lover and i really didn't want to give this place a low review. maybe next time, ill early in the morning when they open and hopefully I can try their matcha waffles. read more

Overpriced to the point where it's insulting. I kid you not it's like they're playing in your face. 10 dollars for an 8oz matcha that's a third ice is robbery. read more

$8.50 for this ridiculous cup of whipped cream (because the matcha almost doesn't exist). Three baristas and 10 mins to make this. Save your time, money and patience. read more

Café Matcha - Whipped cream and liitle matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I am in Alfred's fan, so I was excited to try this new spot! This matcha was more flavorful compared to Alfreds. They also have more milk options, including soy milk, which I appreciate. The food options were interesting and not many vegan items in comparison to Alfred's. Surprisingly, it was not overly busy, and I appreciated that there were free parking spots available. If you live close by, this is a great option, but I would not drive from the city for this. read more

Really enjoyed my time here! The breakfast was yummy! I love matcha and literally almost everything had matcha. The place was super pretty and it had an old school diner touch. read more

Skimpy portions :/ the matcha was so small! I felt like the place really does prioritize quality over quantity. The matcha itself is very good and highly recommend coming here for the superb matcha. The service was fast and efficient just the size was so small! The area is cute and in the heart of Studio City! I'd recommend coming even if the size was SO small! read more

Really enjoyed the hot matcha in-store! It was the perfect combination of matcha flavor and milk ratio. Could really taste the matcha which I love and just a hint of vanilla syrup that I added. The matcha cloud cream was unique and sweet, but too small for a typical matcha that I am used to. If I only got that one I would do double matcha in it next time. read more

Café Matcha - cloud - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Let's just start with how the selection for good matcha in the valley is pretty wack. Well, this cafe is no exception. Unfortunately, with matcha being so trendy, this is another attempt to capitalize on that and knowing that people will spend money to quiet the curiosity. Strawberry matcha latte- 1.5/5. The price for the size is crazy. Also, flavor was lacking. Didn't try any food bc its a matcha cafe and if the matcha isn't good, can the food be? Location and parking is easy enough if you're curious enough! read more

If you're matcha lover I recommend this place. They use organic matcha from Japan. Service was great. It locates in the plaza on Ventura and Laurel Canyon blvd enough parking if you get lucky. Good environment for pick up or unwinding from a long day. read more

Giving this a 1 star because you closed early at 4pm when I drove there and the store hours are until 5pm. Hey guys why don't you actually close when you say you're going to?? Instead of not letting customers in well within your operating hours. Leaving another review on Google. Never going back. read more

Café Matcha - Strawberry Matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

One of my favorite cafes in Studio City! I come here all the time since there aren't many decent matcha places here. The drinks are definitely on the pricier side, especially for the specialty drinks and for their sizes. There is a free parking structure and two different seating areas which is great. read more

The energy in there is so light and sweet. The customer service is wonderful and feels very organic. The matcha is delicious!!! I did a couple of illegal turns to get in and out of that parking lot on the very busy Ventura blvd (shhhhhh, don't tell anyone). Learning that they're the sister business of Alfred's made a lot of sense because I love Alfred's matcha. My only wish is that they offered bigger sizes. Anyways 10/10 and 15/10 if you hit me with a 16 or 24oz!! ALSO, let me say, that's just bc I drink very fast and I'm greedy! The quality of the matcha however, is strong and honestly the size that they offer does the trick. Okay bye! Picture of empty cup because... read more

Café Matcha - WAS a vanilla matcha cloud cream, plant based with pistachio milk. Yummmm - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

LOVE the tea NOT the service. Obsessed with the hojicha but when there are 3-4 people behind the counter and ZERO customers my order should take 10-15 min. Listening to their personal stories while they aren't making my drink (then making the wrong drink because they aren't paying attention) sucks. But the tea makes me keep coming back read more

Café Matcha has hands-down the best matcha I've had in Los Angeles. And I don't say that lightly. Community Goods used to be my favorite until I tasted the matcha here. Now I'm completely addicted. The matcha is rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced not bitter, not overly sweet, just incredibly well done. You can tell they really care about quality. The food is also excellent and thoughtfully prepared, making it a great all-around stop, not just for drinks. I live on the Westside and anytime I'm in the Valley I make a point to stop here. That's how good it is. Highly recommend this for anyone in the San Fernando Valley or even just passing through it's absolutely worth the stop. read more

Finally!!! A matcha shop in the valley close to Sherman Oaks/Studio City!! I really loved the matcha here. I got Café Matcha's take on a strawberry matcha einspanner and the miso cinnamon roll. The matcha was delicious, I could actually taste the strong matcha flavor and the strawberry, without it being too overpowering. The cinnamon roll was also very yummy, but very sweet, which was expected. The vibe inside was cute, but a little overwhelming with the bright colors, I'm not sure I would want to spend a day studying or working here, but it's nice to make a quick stop to pick up a drink and a snack. The prices were a little steep- over $8 for a matcha oat milk in a super small cup. However, the staff, especially the woman taking our order, was lovely and the service was excellent!! I'm looking forward to stopping by again to get my matcha fix! read more

Love this place!! The matcha was delicious. The service as nice. The ambiance was nice !

The three stars are for my matcha and the ambiance. The other two stars that are missing--one is for my hard waffle and the other is for my toast that I had to put my own jam on. I only went here because Haus of Belgian Waffles was closed; they have really good waffles and theirs aren't hard or burnt. Also $8 for a toast that I have to put my own jam on is crazy. I liked the very tiny matcha though. read more

I don't like writing bad/negative reviews but this place was seriously off putting. Parking was easy because I came in the morning during the holidays. I met my friend here to grab matcha (duh lol). I had my dog with me and he doesn't bark or do anything since he's used to me taking him to coffee shops. We ordered our matcha and the girl was like no dogs allowed so you have to sit outside, that's fine with me. Just annoying because it was about to rain and cold and windy outside. I understood because not everyone is comfortable with dogs and if that's their policy, it is what it is. We got our food and drinks (for here) and sat outside. After we were done, we returned our plates and she said "next time you cant sit outside with our dishes, you have to get take out cups". Lol, why couldn't she just give us our items in takeout cups/pastry bags? We would have been fine. Anyways, matcha was very subpar, 2.5/5 for the matcha, and the pastries were nothing special. Probably wouldn't come back because there are better options but it is a very cute japanese style cafe! read more

What a cute spot! Went in with a girlfriend before a hike to grab tea and a snack. The space is such a vibe--the aesthetic alone would keep me coming back. But what will definitely bring me back are the drinks. They have Hojicha and I love that. Matcha can sometimes be a liiiittle too much caffeine for me, so I was really excited to see they have other options! The food we got was really good too. Unique pastries are always a win. Will be a frequent stop for me pre and post hike! read more

I've tried this place four times now; the matcha is alright, not the best and not the worst. The size vs price is not really worth it compared to other spots. The service is pretty inconsistent so I wouldn't go if on a time limit. The space, though, so cute and decorative! read more

Extremely disappointed. Extremely overpriced and extremely underwhelmed. I take pride into being a self claimed matcha-connoisseur. I claimed this because I knew about matcha way before it became an influencer fad in America circa 2010-2014. This latte was $20 because I requested using "rare matcha" which is $10, the cashier did not explain why it's an extra $10 up charge. (8.00 for the drink and a separate $10 for the matcha totaling $18) I assume because it was "rare matcha" the taste, the energy and the nutritional benefits would be a powerhouse to reflect the pricing....NOPE!! This was purely GREEN MILK as another review stated. Because I spent the most money ever in any city on this specific cup (San Francisco and New York City included) I couldn't bear to throw $20 in the garbage. So I waited another 30 min of my valuable time to kindly and politely explain my dismay for the drink, JUST FOR THEM TO CHARGE ME TWO EXTRA DOLLARS FOR EXTRA MATCHA TO NOT TASTE LIKE SYRUPY MILK! So yep an unenjoyable $20 milk drink in an approximately 10 oz cup filled with ice. So in actuality and mathematically, I purchased an 8 oz milk and syrup drink for $20. I will wholeheartedly never return. read more
