    Heard a lot about Junbi before so I wanted to come try them out. Very cute location. Nice decor, pretty streamlined flow. Walk in, order in the tablet and wait for your call. They have sitting available in the outside, nothing inside, so although most people buy boba to go, if you want to sit down and enjoy the smell of San Francisco downtown piss, they do have some availability. They work fast and they have other things than boba like juices. Although I wasn't particularly blown away by their boba, maybe you'll find a flavor that matches your tastes.

    Came for the snoopy collab which is featuring a hazelnut series. The three drinks we got (matcha, hojicha, chocolate) were all very sweet. I would try to adjust the sweetness next time. The matcha was my favorite since it was the most balanced in flavor. The drink cups are very cute (snoopy branded) and they have some snoopy decor inside which was also fun. They sold out of merch though :( Service was okay, not the most friendly.

    We came here for the Peanuts x Junbi Collection and thought to get some drinks as well! We ordered the Chocolate Hazelnut Matcha Latte, Chocolate Hazelnut Hojicha Latte, Strawberry Matcha Latte, and Strawberry Hojicha Latte. They were right about the Snoopy drinks being Hazelnut because all I could taste was the Hazelnut. I could barely taste the Hojicha. The Matcha was a little better but I prefer the non Snoopy collab drinks. The service was great. All the workers were super friendly!

    Guava Matcha Cold Brew w/Boba: No Ice, No Sweet.

    I was craving a fruity matcha drink and this was the 1st place I thought of. It was quite packed inside and out, so everyone else must have been thinking of the same thing. Order on 1 of the 2 kiosks and wait for your name to be called. I ordered the Blueberry Lavender Cold Foam Matcha Latte ($7.00 + tax) w/House-made Almond Jelly ($1.00): Less Ice, Less Sweet, Whole Milk. This is the only place I've seen this combination. +Blueberry Lavender Cold Foam tasted like ripe blueberries w/a hint of lavender. +House-made Almond Jelly was a unique & delicious topping that worked well with the flavor profile of the drink +Freeze dried cranberries added a tart crunch. +Green & lavender hues made for an aesthetically pleasing drink. +Cup & straw were durable -After the cold foam was gone, it just tasted like a regular matcha latte. -No option for no ice or 0% sweet: The last time I was here, both of those options were available. -Cups are smaller now. Side notes: 1.) Rewards: Sign up w/email or phone # to earn points 2.) Compared to my previous visit, they added some seating indoors in addition to the tables outdoors. *Verdict: Creative but pricey matcha drinks. With so many matcha places in the area, they're definitely one of the most expensive ones, especially since their cups are smaller now.

    Junbi in Japanese means either preparation, reserve, provision or arrangement. Ok, makes sense. It also sounds like a character's name in an Anime series. Yatta! Located behind or adjacent (depends on how you look at it) our workplace, is this Matcha joint on Market Street. Order on a kiosk or request your drink straight from the employees working on the counter. Nice, cheerful and friendly staff. Then prepares the drinks for you. Decided to give 'em a try a couple of times and the first drink I tried was a Cold Matcha Latte ($7.75). It was good, but lacking that Matcha flavor that I'm used to. It was light in flavor and was forgettable. Next time I tried the Cold Hojicha Latte ($7.75). This one had the Matcha flavor that I prefer - bold, earthy and roasted notes. Not too sweet as well. All in all, a nice addition to the neighborhood that provides more options. 3.5 stars.

    I was looking for a matcha place that I might like. I usually don't order matcha drinks at places, but this one has a bunch of cool fruity flavored matcha drinks. Anyways, we went here around 2pm on a Saturday and there were a few people in line ahead of me. We ordered a few drinks here so we got the Guava Matcha Latte, Madagascar Vanilla Matcha, and the Yuzu Dragonfruit Refresher. This place also gives you the option to choose between a hot or cold matcha drinks and I loved how there's unique fruity flavors, like the guava which ended up being both of our favorite matcha flavor. I'd recommend this place! All the drinks we tried were good and I liked how unique their drink flavor combinations are. It's a small shop so it might be difficult to find a place to sit inside, but they have seating outside too!

    There are not many places in downtown San Francisco dedicated to matcha on Market street. You may find it on many menus at Boba places and even on a Peets Coffee or Starbucks menu. There is a place which has matcha on its namesake and they serve not only matcha but you can also participate in the matcha experience. Since Don Juan de la matcha is a lifestyle I wanted to check out this matcha spot. It's planted on Market street between 3rd street and New Montgomery and it's called Junbi which means preparation in Japanese. On a downtown stroll on Market street seeing some interesting things as I entered Junbi Matcha & Tea yellow colored walls. I was tempted to order the Cold Mango Match cold brew but wanted to taste the Cold Madagascar Vanilla Matcha Latte. I am glad I ordered it because it was crisp, and smooth and every drop was tasty and not too sweet. There are so many different crisp matcha combinations like the Hot Dirty Matcha Latte with expresso. They also offer Matcha making team building classes also known as Matcha 101 .There is also merchandise for sale like tote bags .They also sell blind boxes for a pleasant surprise. Market street now has a good dedicated place with indoor and outdoor seating to get matcha in Downtown San Francisco and it's worth every drop. Junbi which means "preparation" in the language of the Japanese" nation " I went inside their Downtown Market street San Francisco " location " where they making different types flavors of matcha, expresso and coffee drink "creation" Don Juan del matcha is a matcha "fiend"something got me hooked with the "green " matcha powder which has "caffeine " so go people watch outside at Junbi on Market street because once you see it on the Downtown streets in SF it can't be "unseen"

    Centrally located, Junbi offers boba, matcha, specialty drinks and teas, and onigiri! I opted for the matcha and onigiri while running errands. Ordering was simple on the screen and there were so many options! Drink came out fast and tasted so good. The onigiri was separate from the seaweed so it doesn't get soggy. Will be back!

    TLDR; I don't usually like matcha, but Junbi's matcha is so good, it has made me a fan (of their matcha). I will be visiting their storefront downtown for afternoon pick-me-ups going forward. Junbi Matcha was hired to come into our office today and serve us two matcha options over our lunch break, regular green matcha and strawberry matcha (with strawberry puree). First, I tried the strawberry matcha, and it tasted amazing. It took me a while to determine if the amazing flavor was coming from the strawberry puree or the matcha, and I assumed (incorrectly) it was solely from the strawberry puree. Remember, I don't normally like matcha.... But then, I went back for seconds and asked for the regular matcha, and it blew me away. Super flavorful, but not super sweet. They had non-dairy options for both that I tried, and the sweeeeet kick of caffeine is exactly what I need to get me through the rest of my afternoon. I will definitely be walking to their location downtown to power me through the afternoons!

    Came in for the snoopy collab. Didn't get any merch. The green tea matcha was decent. Service was good. Got my drink quickly. The place is clean but not much seating. They have outside but it was raining and cold.

    Matcha Lattes, Salt Bread, Strawberry Matcha cookie
    Jamie S.

    This place was pretty good. The warm salt bread was delicious even with the butter. The matcha cookie was a little sweeter than I prefer but it still tasted delicious. The matcha latte I ordered passion fruit with their homemade almond jelly. The passionfruit was a bit too tart but the almond jelly totally hit the mark it was yummy. I would come again to try more drinks

So we got an extra drink for free. Trying the iced latte, it was pretty disappointing lol. I thought it would be similar to like a Hawaiian style latte with macadamia milk, but it was a lot lighter than I thought. It was definitely very nutty, but it also just tasted like water down latte. Honestly not much going on with the drink, but it does taste lighter in general. Crazy have to pay $1.50 more to add on this milk. Overall, its alright. I do like the natural lighting coming into the shop, but nothing too special.

I asked her to turn down the volume, which she tuned down from an 11 to a 7, but minutes later it continued to creep up, like the snooze setting of an alarm clock coaxing you to wake up - except in this case, to get out. Ultimately, the volume got unbearable and we finally threw in the towel and got out of there to let the barista enjoy her music.
