Matcha Guide Vol.2
🍵✨ My Matcha Guide Vol.2 for 2023 is finally here! If you're a matcha lover like me, then you're in for a treat! Today, I want to share with you the best matcha places in London where you can find the most delightful and high-quality matcha lattes. Get ready to elevate your matcha experience to a whole new level! 🇬🇧💚
1. Cafe Kitsuné: Nestled in the heart of Knightsbridge, this matcha place comes with a Japanese accent. The matcha lattes are high quality, super foamy and the right level of intensity. I usually get my matcha with oat mylk but at Kitsuné I have mine with unsweetened soy . A cup of matcha latte is priced at the higher end so every sip counts :)
2. Omotesando Koffee: This coffee shop started out in Tokyo and is located near Tottenham Court Road. They do delicious matcha lattes, very smooth and velvety. The decor of the shop is aesthetically pleasing. You gonna love the minimalist Japanese style with the light wooden theme.
3. WA Café: This independent charming little Japanese cafe and patisserie is a matcha paradise in Covent Garden and Ealing. Their matcha latte is crafted to perfection, with a beautiful balance of earthy notes and creamy goodness.
4. Kuro Café: Kuro offers a serene space that draws inspiration from Japanese minimalism and is nestled among the charming and colourful houses of Notting Hill. Try the Genmaicha Matcha Latte which has more an intense taste and is a Japanese green tea consisting of popped brown rice. Definitely worth trying.
5. Raw Press Café: Located in Chelsea and specialised in matcha lattes. I really do like the vibrant green colour and rich flavour. The best thing, the friendly staff even asks you how strong you would like your matcha. There are different matcha lattes on the menu, you can add CBD, lavender and more. It's the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy a cup of matcha bliss after exploring the bustling streets of Southwest London.
6. Notes: That one might fly under the radar because it’s missing the Japanese touch but oh boy they know how to make a good matcha. If you crave for a simple tasty matcha at an affordable price that is a safe choice.
7. Hagen: A Danish hospitality which has several location across London. Their matcha latte is made using ceremonial-grade matcha, resulting in a smooth and velvety drink that will leave you craving for more.
There are many more good matcha places which I will pack into a next guide. For now however, my guide Vol. 1 and this one should keep you busy exploring new locations that will provide you with a delightful matcha experience. Let me know which on the list is your favourite!
