The Iron Matcha is amazing. The owner is truly a master of his practice. I would definitely recommend letting him guide you on what to get as his recommendations are great. I will definitely be going back.
It'd have been nice if the owner did not harrass female customers, he is clearly delulu & has zero respect for female customers. He thinks his job entitles him to some benefits of flirting with girls & women even if they do not want to. Which makes it out of the question to go back. He won't stop talking or asking questions, mostly inappropriate, at first I thought it was innocent & just friendly, but it was not. He is really troubled: either he makes people wait too long in line because he'd rather flirt with ladies than move the line, or he is imagining that a girl/woman who stays long for wifi is actually trying to get his attention. This is some weird behaviour, never again...& that bathroom in a creepy dark basement....gave me chills, I thought I'd end up trapped there. Do not encourage him, he thinks that if you talk back you're letting him''in'' be very careful, especially if you're very young.
The match taste was different from where ever else I taste it because of cardamom & I liked the decoration but honestly the way owner behave was so harsh, & disrespectful that I'll never go there again!
Had such a great experience here while visiting from Toronto! The owner was incredibly accommodating & welcoming, which made the whole visit feel even more special. I tried the Iron Matcha with pumpkin seed milk & it was amazing!! Smooth, rich, & perfectly balanced. I also learned that pumpkin seed milk is a healthier option, which was a nice bonus!
As someone who regularly makes matcha at home, I was really impressed & will definitely be trying this style myself. I even picked up some of their matcha powder, which was very reasonably priced.
The ambiance of the place is lovely, calm, cozy, & a great spot to relax. The portion size of the matcha is generous & absolutely worth it. I'll definitely be coming back next time I'm in Montreal!
The shop is very quaint & cute, the tea tasting was fantastic, the shop owner was very grumpy. Not sure why he was so unfriendly with us. He was not welcoming & made our visit uncomfortable. We understand you may be following specific cultural traditions & we would have loved to learn more about them & respect them but no need to be so cold with your customers that are happy to come in & support your business ✌?
The matcha is made with a lot of love & care from the owner himself! He thoroughly enjoys making matcha & learning about its history. Great matcha. only thing is it might be a bit grainy.. The shop was also really nicely decorated :)
Randomly went here due to my friend searching google maps on our visit to Montreal. No pictures because we were too busy chatting with the owner about sweetened vs. unsweetened matcha, Chinese tea, & the tea scene in Montreal. Owner was kind enough to give us unsweetened versions of our drinks to try when we mentioned that we like our drinks without sugar. Delicious 😋
Nestor is an artist with his matcha. Iron matcha is my favourite. His space is green & bright & a pleasure to relax. He is very kind & puts intention in all of his work.
Très mauvaise expérience dès l'accueil. Le propriétaire s'est montré impatient & irrespectueux. Ce genre d'attitude envers les clients est inacceptable & choquant. On ne m'a jamais manqué de respect de la sorte. Je ne recommande absolument pas. À éviter.
À l'inverse, j'ai testé le salon de thé « Cha Do Raku » & la différence est flagrante, propriétaire adorable, endroit magnifique & cosy, avec des thés & desserts délicieux. Comme quoi, un bon service, ça existe encore.
