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.

The owner of this store is the kindest man. You can tell he really cares about his customers & is passionate about tea & art! All the paintings & interior design is done by him. Cutest shop ever🤍

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 ✌?
