We had such a lovely time here. The matcha tasted amazing & the place itself is lovely, filled with art & other decorations. Above all, Nestor, the owner, was super kind & communicative. Would definitely recommend to stop by if you have a chance!
Wow. It took me 40 minutes to get to @Matcha today. But I can assure you that everything the reviews say are correct, so it was well worth it. What a genuine treasure of a spot. I tried the sampler, as I'm only in the area for a short while longer. A journey - I loved every minute. The IronMatcha was a personal favorite, followed by Houjichoco. Nestor was so patient & kind to answer my many, many questions. It's always a pleasure to meet someone who is clearly so passionate & knowledgeable about their craft. The environment he has curated in the house is so well thought out & intentional. Nothing is short-cut. Thank you for the experience, sir!
C'est l'endroit idéal pour les amoureux du thé Matcha. Nestor, le propriétaire, est un passionné de thé. Tout ce qu'il fait est délicieux : Matcha, Thé, Pouding. Allez-y ! Vous ne serez pas déçu !
@ Matcha holds a special place in my heart. Nestor, the owner, is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, & welcoming, & you can truly feel the care & passion he puts into everything he does.
Every time I go there, it feels like a new experience: there is always something to discover, whether it's a new tea preparation, one of his pieces of art, or just a thoughtful conversation.
The space has such a warm & calming atmosphere, & the quality of the matcha is amazing. I always leave feeling happy & inspired.
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.
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!
Heard about this tea house from the media & the lasting impressions of the general public, so decided to give it a go (as a matcha enthusiast myself). I was impressed. Nestor is definitely one who shows his passion, even his stories about his travel & craft have been quite inspiring to say the least. I left a visual review on my insta which he has seen as well. I am really glad to have given this a try on my last day in Montréal. Worth every minute & cent spent. More power to you & your cafe, Nestor :)
We have been to many cafés & tea houses in Montreal, but this is our all-time favourite teahouse for matcha. Nestor is a master of his craft, & his knowledge of tea truly inspires us to learn more about the art of tea-making.
We especially enjoy the iron matcha & order it on every visit. That said, there are many options to choose from-ranging from traditional serving styles to more refreshing & creative blends.
We always leave feeling recharged & refreshed, & we learn a new fun fact about tea with each visit.
Nestor a réussi a créer un espace accueillant & doux qui invite à la lenteur dans le coeur du Plateau-Mont-Royal. Le matcha est préparé avec minutie & amour & ça se goûte dans chaque gorgée. Un bel endroit pour passer un moment agréable & sans stress.
