    Bridge connecting Cincinnati and Kentucky.

    A gem of a place full of visitors on the weekends. Wow! I'm blown away. Definitely worth a visit if you don't mind splurging a bit for some fresh matcha tea variety and homemade pastries. ! Not much room to sit but the cute vibe and we got the Jasmine matcha lightly sweetened. I recommend it. The other colorful strawberry matcha. Also yuzu cheesecake.be prepared to spend some money.

    Great quality Matcha which is hard to find, I got the strawberry sago matcha with whole milk and it was really good! Pro tip if you like sweeter matcha than extra simple syrup. The service was really good and they made sure that you were very well informed with what we were getting. The shop is very small though and maybe only fits 5 customers max at a time. We went right when it opened on a Sunday and the line was out the door! they just opened in October 20 25 and seemed like they're doing great. I hope they expand!

    First off, though this shop is small, they know how to treat customers like they're your bestie and rollout the drinks at an insane rate. The menu options are endless... you could mix and match your matcha, milk choice, flavors, sweeteners, etc so many different ways I don't think you'd ever get tired of going here. We visited on a beautiful Saturday afternoon and the line was long, but quick and worth the wait. The sweet guy taking orders was happy to answer the endless questions every customer had without even a blink. I honestly can't remember what we even ordered in the end, all I know is it was delicious and I can't wait to get back and try the next combination!

    This place has great reviews so I was excited to try it. They offer classic matcha and hojicha plus seasonal holiday drinks, which is fun. I appreciated that everything is hand-whisked and measured - you can tell there's intention behind it. That said... it didn't fully hit for me. The matcha had good color but wasn't as umami or flavorful as I prefer. I can't drink dairy or oat milk, so I picked their califia farm coconut/almond milk and I just don't love that flavor. I really wish they had a barista style almond milk option for a creamier texture. The space itself is super cute with seating in the back, and overall it's solid - just not my personal favorite but I'm glad I visited

    Super excited to try Little Matcha as a matcha specialty shop! It's the first in the area, so I couldn't wait to try. Due to the season I missed the Strawberry Matcha, so I tried the Biscoff instead. It was very good and the perfect amount of sweet! The girls working were very friendly and helpful as well! Love this little spot nestled in Covington!

    My friends and I came to visit this new store on a Saturday and tried several different flavors. My Honeycrisp Apple Matcha had a very light apple flavor. The Banana Bread and Pumpkin Cream had stronger flavors, and the Pumpkin one was definitely creamier/heavier due to the foam on top. Despite the subtlety of the apple flavor, I enjoyed my matcha and it was refreshing. I believe the seating in the back of the store is currently temporarily closed, but there are two small tables outside and some window seating. It is a relatively small space, but there is cute and simple decor. My only qualm with this spot is the price. Paying almost $10 (drink + oat milk + tax) for an iced 12 ounce drink, plus more for tip, is just way too much. I want to support a new small business, and one that specializes in matcha, but I think it is just sadly far out of what I'm willing to pay for.

    The cutest matcha spot! But very tiny. Little to no room for seating. And I got the seasonal drink and the cookie. Yum!

    So so so good and the service was amazing!! They were super accommodating for my friend who had never had matcha before and customized the sweetness for her. Such a cute matcha shop!!

    This place has the best matcha I've ever had from a cafe/bar. I went back two days in a row. I'm sad I live in Oregon and can't make this place a regular drink spot. I tried the OG matcha with strawberry puree and the Hojicha with red bean sago the next. Both delicious. I will absolutely be going back next time I'm in the area.

    CUTEST little matcha store!! As a huge matcha lover, I was excited to see a speciality matcha store open. I went right when they opened so it seemed they were still training employees and getting the hang of things. It did take a while to get my drink. However, the wait was worth it!! The strawberry match was incredible. They have cute seating to hang out with a friend or complete some work. I will be back!

    Ube matcha, iced
    Taylor S.

    I've only had one other matcha latte in my life (from a different coffee shop), and I hated it; I threw it away after a few sips. Needless to say, I was a bit nervous to give it another go, especially at $9 each. However, my husband and I both LOVED our drinks from Little Matcha! We got an iced ube and hot biscoff (with oat milk). Both were delicious, not bitter nor too sweet, very balanced. Can't wait to see what flavors they come up with next. We'll be back!

    The matcha lattes include milk and little sweetener so I customized with oat milk and simple syrup.

    Ambiance is a 4, very obvious it's the community place to gather. Seating is available at the bar…read morewhere there are baked goods like biscotti, mini muffins, chocolate chip cookies and banana bread are on display. Or you can be seated at a table in a large open dining area. Very community conscious with a ramp for wheelchair to get from main hostess area to the dining area. I was seated right away. Being visitor from VA Beach, I asked what's the recommended dish, the server suggested omelette. But I wasn't in the mood for omelette so I saw shakshuka. I tried their Green Goddess version that has spinach (instead of tomato sauce) and feta. The food is a solid 3. I also ordered the Dubai Chocolate latte. It was a 3 as you taste more the milk than the chocolate syrup. I also got their chocolate chip banana bread.

    We came in for a Saturday brunch to celebrate my uncle's birthday. The place is popular and was…read morequite busy around 1 PM, so expect a bit of a wait. The dining room is large but very loud. It was tough to have a conversation across the table. The food was a mixed bag. We enjoyed the French toast and bagels, and the mujadara had good flavor - a smidge dry. The tuna, which was supposed to be medium-rare, was overcooked and dry. The service was subpar. While a staff member (manager on call?) cleaned a table next to us, she accidentally sprayed one of us and their food with cleaning solution. We mentioned it to her and she apologized with no offer to replace the food. Our waiter was kind enough to agree to replace the food at our request. The previous staff member who sprayed us brought out the replacement food and rudely served it to us with attitude and without utensils. We had to flag another waiter down for utensils. Mistakes happen but the handling of this situation left a sour note on our celebratory brunch. We expected better service etiquette from Cafe Alma but left really disappointed. I hope management reviews how incidents like this are handled in the future.

Overall it was a bit overfilled so it was very messy and hard to eat. I could have done without the hidden coconut shavings inside. KIMCHI & EGG CROISSANT 5 I had this one for breakfast. I warmed it in my air fryer for 6 minutes on 330 so it didn't overcook. The croissant was flaky and delicious, and the kimchi added good flavor without being spicy. I would have liked to see a little more mozzarella but overall it was tasty! SOBACHA CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIE 4 Also tasty, oversized cookie. Soft and chewy texture. CINNAMON ALMOND BLUEBERRY TOAST (THURSDAY/FRIDAY ONLY) 5.25 Very good. The cinnamon filling reminded me of a brown sugar pop tart. I warmed it in my air fryer and it was perfect. Would order again. I just wish they had an espresso bar!
