ABOUT US

From Kyoto, Japan

artistry, reimagined

The Matcha Kyōto is a specialty matcha cafe dedicated to bringing the artistry and tradition of Kyoto's finest matcha to the UK. Launched in 2025, the two branches located in Albert Sqaure and Selfridge's in Manchester city centre have become a staple for quality matcha drinks and desserts. Rooted in centuries-old Japanese tea culture we honour the authentic craft of hand-whisked matcha using ceramonial-grade matcha sourced derectly from local small farms in Uji, Kyoto. We blend this heritage with a comtemporary twist - offering an innovative menu that reimagines the match experience. From the velvety Matcha Coconut Cloud to our signature Strawberry Matcha Latte with Cream Top, each creation reflects our passion for purity, heritage and creativity. At the Matcha Kyōto, every cup is a celebration of balance - between old and new, ritual and reinvention.
