Review Summary

@ matcha is widely celebrated as a unique and authentic destination for tea enthusiasts in Montreal, praised for its high-quality matcha, creative blends like the popular Iron Matcha and Avocatcha, and thoughtful use of house-made pumpkin seed milk. The space is frequently described as a cozy, artistic, and calming gem where visitors appreciate the educational approach to tea culture and the visible passion poured into every preparation. While most patrons find the experience inspiring and the service deeply knowledgeable and welcoming, a small number of guests have encountered a more rigid or cold atmosphere, noting that the focus on tradition and specific shop standards can occasionally lead to tense interactions. Overall, those who value a genuine, slow-paced, and artistic tea experience consider it a standout establishment that offers far more than a standard cafe visit.

Don't come here / À éviter :
We tried the iron matcha drink & it was not enjoyable at all. It was extremely gritty as whole dates were blended directly into it & unfiltered. It felt like drinking sand & the date bits kept getting stuck in our teeth. The cardamom flavour was overwhelming & in general the flavours did not mix well. We also tried the choco hojicha drink which was even grittier, but the flavour was a bit better. Unfortunately, it tasted stronger of chocolate than hojicha. Also, the drinks were not prepared fresh-they were pre-prepared & stored in the fridge. Matcha should always be whisked fresh, especially for an $11 drink (with tax & container deposit). To top it off, the owner made a weird comment about how the women in our group should not pay for the men's drinks. There is misogyny in the milk :(

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.

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!

My boyfriend & I were here in Montreal for a dragon boat race two weeks ago. I found this place from a recommendation & was determined to try out the matcha drinks! We got the iron matcha & hojicha choco & they both did not disappoint the slightest bit. The decorations were lovely & cozy (he also has beautiful paintings). Nestor was so kind & nice & friendly & you could tell how passionate he was in curating the best & most healthy drinks for his customers, getting the best ingredients from all over the world. During our chit chat he even offered some delightful snacks (best date with cashew ive ever had!!) & mini drinks of cermonial matcha & jasmine tea (also the most fragrant & delicious jasmine tea ive had). It was a great experience & we promise to come back if we ever visited Montreal again. Or let us know if you ever open a place in Vancouver haha!
