    Matcha Latte
    Peyton G.

    Craving some matcha and happened to be the closest nearby. It's a small store but there is a long table to sit at. They ran out of the strawberry matcha latte so my boyfriend and I opted for the matcha latte. Doesn't come sweetened so paid extra for vanilla syrup. Matcha latte: 5/10 Didn't meet my expectations :( I think I'm spoiled because of California. I could hardly taste the vanilla and the matcha itself was bitter and grassy. At least the color was nice. Matcha croissant: 6/10 The croissant itself was okay but I didn't realize there wasn't any filling in the center. Probably should've gotten the chocolate croissant instead. Baristas seemed unenthusiastic but I understand that it could've been an off day for them.

    This is THE place to go when you're craving some good, authentic matcha. This tiny but mighty cafe has a decent sized menu for all the matcha items you are craving. When I got there, the line wasn't bad, by the time my friend came to meet me and we sat down with our drinks, the line was out the door! But the staff were efficient and it moved fast. It's so welcoming and pretty inside and had just enough tables to enjoy your drink for a bit. I didn't want anything fancy, so opted for the iced matcha water but next time I'm going to try something fun!

    - Service: Nice, fast, and friendly staff. - Ambiance: Nice and clean store. - Food/Drink: We tried Iced Matcha Latte and Matcha Colada. The latte was pretty decent. It's smooth and not too bitter. Seem like they also offer different kinds of milk if you want to go non-dairy! Matcha Colada has a lot of ingredients in it, so I can barely taste any matcha, but it's still like a nice Piña Colada I'd say. There's a lot of Cha Cha Matcha stores in NY, and I'm surprised that they're not overpriced! Would recommend to anyone who needs a good cup of matcha.

    DRINKS We ordered their matcha latte and their strawberry matcha. Considering the matcha shortage, both were surprisingly high in matcha content, which we loved. The drinks come unsweetened, so if you would like additional sweetness, simple syrups are available at the side bar by the napkins to add to your drinks. FOOD Soft serve was available for purchase, though we didn't get any this time around. SERVICE The staff are kind and friendly! There was quite a line when we arrived, but they went through orders efficiently and accurately. AMBIANCE There are about 3 tables for two inside the store. It can be very cramped inside, especially as people wait for orders, but the line filters through quickly so people are in and out. That being said, this definitely isn't the best place to catch up with a friend or work/study, so I'd leave this as a grab-and-go location. PARKING Paid garages are available nearby, and street parking is available at a limited capacity.

    Not sure why this place doesn't have 5 stars. Love this place the matcha is always consistent and also their speciality/seasonal drinks always slap. The ube matcha was so fresh and amazing. The ube didn't over power the matcha which I do love because when normally these two end up in the same drink it's normally super sweet. So I loved how they were able to balance it out. I prefer this location rather than the other one by 5th ave because it's such a larger space and the lines not going out the door. Also loved how cute it was inside and you could actually sit and fit in there.

    The storefront is so cute and picture-worthy. I love green and tile. Unfortunately it's really small and not a place to sit down, just an order-and-pick-up kind of place. I got a yuzu matcha lemonade and it was so delicious and refreshing. Matcha flavor can be pretty hidden in a lemonade though. We took some pictures and headed out, and a block down I realized my cup was leaking. Went back in and showed the staff, and they easily replaced the cup for me. I'll have to go back again and try their matcha latte, see if they're good!

    The space is super cute, the pink and green theme is absolutely adorable. I also enjoyed the fact that I could watch the barista make the drink. The person who served me was very helpful and was quick to make my order. Unfortunately, this strawberry matcha latte was a disappointment. The bitterness was overpowering, making it hard to enjoy the strawberry flavor, and there was little to no balance in flavor. It lacked the smooth, creamy texture that a good matcha latte should have. If you love matcha, you might find this one too harsh. I couldn't even drink it. I gave the rest to my boyfriend after a couple sips and he didn't like it either.

    Really cute place that sells authentic matcha (the dark green stuff) and very conveniently located. I like my matcha more bitter but they have sugar and syrup on the side to add if you prefer! The napkins are so cute!

    Gave the place a second try after reaching out to customer service and being invited back. Unfortunately, I was disappointed and frustrated again. This time I ordered the purple drink. The drink wasn't bad, a little too sweet for my tastes, but it was not even close to a full cup. Maybe the other locations are better, but just avoid the one here at Bryant Park if you're going to go.

    Cha Cha Matcha definitely nails the aesthetic. Super cute and IG worthy with all the pink decor. But when it comes to the drinks, I wasn't too impressed. I've tried a few different ones and honestly, they're overpriced for what you get. Not sure how authentic the matcha is, but it doesn't taste like high quality. I would not pay that much for matcha again...

    There are many other shops in the city, so if you're looking to sit and spend time in the cafe -- this specific location is NOT for you. It's set up mostly as a grab and go situation, very limited seating. The matcha had a great depth in flavor, you can taste the strawberry and matcha without the flavors overpowering the other. A bit on the pricier side but that's expected! Kind workers

    Conveniently located on fifth Avenue near Bryant Park, right outside the train station. This location is my morning go to before heading into the office. The shop is small, quick and friendly service. The Matcha latte is a little bland, I go for the Matcha chai, which doesn't have an overpowering chai taste $7. Lots of options to choose from including soft serve, they even sell their ceremonial Matcha and all the tools to re-create your favorite drink at home.

    This is one of my favorite go-to places to in NYC! CHA CHA MATCHA!!! tens all across the board! If you know me, you know how much I'm obsessed with this place and their Matcha Lemonade. I've tried it at Starbucks, but it just doesn't hit the same. It's just something about the combination that makes this drink so addicting. You just can't have enough! I know they also have limited-edition menu items; unfortunately I didn't get there in time to try those, but there's always next time. Plus, they've got Matcha soft serve - perfect for a hot, sunny day in NYC! Moving on to the aesthetics of this place.. it is so cute. I love how you can just chill and watch them whip up your drinks - a cute little show.

The strawberry puree added the perfect hint of sweetness to the drink, and they use real strawberries!!! The matcha was sooo creamy, and their matcha quality was really good as well.

Even though I wasn't going to try all three, I like having options to choose from. I was debating between Hinata and Hajime, so I asked the staff which one has a strong flavor and she recommended Hinata. I went with that. It's meant to have a nutty creamy taste. I'm satisfied that I can taste the nutty creaminess. Though I wish it can be bolder and have more umami. Perhaps it has to do with concentration. At the same time, $6.50 is a good price given the location, alternative matcha and drink options nearby, flavor. I also asked how much matcha they use in the medium vs large sizes. Medium is 4g for a 12oz cup. Large is 5g for a 16oz cup. Even though large is a better deal by volume, I got medium because it has a higher concentration of matcha. Since I got a hot latte, my cup came with the lid on it already. I didn't look at it immediately, so no photo available lol. I looked later on and the color looks bright green. The seating is weird where they only have a table with two seats against the window. Then there's a random one chair next to the cashier and another one next to the pickup area. The stools are slightly taller than the counters which made me feel like I was towering over the counter. I don't recommend betting on spending time to hang out there. Just buy it to go.

And I commonly see the upstairs for private events like baby showers, bridal showers, or birthday parties on social media. After dinner with my friends, I was looking for dessert and I was glad to see this location closes relatively late on a weekday night at 11 pm. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a waiter who led us to one of the purple velvet chair booths that was perfect for two people and another waiter brought us a pitcher of water almost immediately. The menu is on a QR code already on the table and we were given ample of time to decide. My friend and I both already knew what we wanted to order. I got the purple Yam Souffle which takes 25 minutes to make and my friend got the fried squid tails. We also got a signature Rose Green Milk Tea to share. The waitress who took our order has great memory and recalled all of our items without writing it down. She also reminded me that I could adjust the ice and sugar levels of my drink which I had completely forgotten and would have got annoyed if my drink came out 100% sweetness. Another thing is that my drink order frequently comes out wrong at other locations so I was glad she got it right! Green tea instead of black tea and with milk instead of without milk. The purple Yam Souffle is just like the other locations. Hot, soft cakey texture balanced with an ice cold red bean Ice-Cream. So delicious! The squid tails on the other hand was not what we expected. It came out burnt and hard. The outer batter was not crispy either. We informed one of the waiters and he brought it back to inform the kitchen staff. We received a new batch that was not as burnt and had more flavoring this time around. However, the squid was still hard and not like the ones we get from other locations with smaller crispier pieces. Overall, it was still a good experience and I love the decorations at this location! This might be my second favorite location after the Flushing one. Would love to come back for brunch or hi-tea. Or regular food options when I have not already eaten dinner. My usual go-tos are the twister fries, Santa Fe chicken rolls, fried salted crispy chicken, and the trio dessert combo. However, this location has a lot more variety! FYI - there are two unisex restrooms in the rear for customers to use with really cute wallpapers too.

We ordered potted rose milk tea to share, Dubai affogato and Brown Sugar Boba Mille Crêpes Cake. We came on a Friday around 4pm. Originally I wanted to try the strawberry matchamisu, however, was told that it sold out. What a bummer. The rose milk tea came with a themed pot and cups which is really cute. The rose fragrant smelled so good and the milk tea also tasted good and has a hint of rose taste. The cake was good, the boba was well cooked, chewy and flavorful! This time there was an unpleasant experience. At first when the Dubai affogato was served, we did not realize that the amount of the coffee was little until we saw another customer's dish that the volume of their coffee looked significantly more than ours. My friend brought it to the waitress attention but the waitress brushed it off and did not acknowledge our concern. When we finished and were about to leave, the same waitress came over and showed us that the container of the coffee was different and hence the volume of the coffee looked different. At this point, we did not care for it anymore. We would have been fine if the staff acknowledged our concern. We thought that maybe using standardized containers for the coffee would avoid this problem. Other than that, the food and drinks were good.
