TSUJIRI was founded in 1860 by Riemon Tsuji who was renowned for his spirit of “YUWA”, meaning "continue to innovate and sustain the tradition". His statue was built in Kyoto, Japan to honor his contribution to the Japanese tea industry. Mr. Tsuji has refined the cultivation of Gyokuro (the highest grade of Japanese green tea) and his method is still being used to this day. He is also the inventor of the tea box that preserves the longevity and freshness of the tea leaves during transportation, making fresh tea from Kyoto available to other Japanese cities a century ago. In 2010, CHAHO, which means tea shop in Japanese, was first established outside of Japan to carry on our founder’s spirit and to serve fresh tea to our customers worldwide.
Reviews about Tsujiri Montreal highlight strong authentic matcha across drinks, desserts and ice cream, with many calling it one of the best matcha spots in town and praising the rich balanced flavor, the range of beverages including lattes and plant based milks, and the dessert lineup from parfaits to mochi and green tea cakes. The menu is noted for its variety, including ramen and green tea udon options in some mentions, and the interior described as stylish, calm, and with ample seating that makes it a good place to study or catch up with friends. Pricing is mixed with some items seen as expensive but many reviewers feel the quality justifies it, and portions are often generous. Service is generally described as friendly and professional, though a rare negative experience with staff is noted. The atmosphere can be busy and noisy at peak times, and a few reviews mention occasional inconsistency in drink sweetness or dessert quality. Overall Tsujiri Montreal is frequently recommended for matcha lovers and is viewed as a reliable destination for both beverages and sweets with a welcoming setting.
We were passing & we saw the name "matcha"...so we decided to stop & have a drink. The service is ok, there are some tables inside & outside, many people with tablets seems like working , enjoying their snaks ...we seated outside to have our matcha drinks & contemplate life calmly. Apparently the matcha has good quality cause it's not so bitter . The latte matcha is creamy & warm. Delicious!! I miss a little bit of originality & personality . The place is ok but very comercial.

Endroit avec service rapide , ma soupe ramen était excellente , mais j'aurais aimé un peu plus relevé, & le porc était savoureux à l'intérieur. Tiramisu matcha était exquis
the best matcha ice cream in the city & i also love the hot yuzu tea!! the soba poke is the perfect summer dish such good tang & fresh fish 🙂↕️ great portion too !
Such a great spot to study, for dates, or for good Japanese matcha goodies! We ordered their matcha cake, matcha latté & matcha mochi parfait! The matcha was so flavourful & strong, which is exactly what you want! They also sell ramen as well! The atmosphere was really good & a lot of seating!
Tout était parfait; le service sympathique & rapide, la nourriture, le thé. Prix raisonnables. Nous avons pris 2 soupes, un thé froid, le riz avec anguille, une portion de gâteau & la crème glacée matcha. J'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner, ça vaut le détour.

A really chill place! If you love matcha, this is definitely the place to go to. They have a lot of matcha & yuzu based desserts but also serve savory meals like udons that are flavorful but also very light. I can never go there without their cold yuzu tea!
I've only had Tsujiri's drinks before in Calgary, so to come here & have their food was a great experience. I had their poke soba, incredibly refreshing dish. My friend's tonkotsu soba was rich & flavourful. The matcha latte here was so good. Dessert of one of the Glace Pilee was also refreshing.
J'ai adoré mon expérience, tout etais bien la nourriture l'ambiance le fait qu'il y a 2 étages ce qui fait plus de place le personnel est gentil & courtois vraiment je recommande & le matcha glacé excellent ! Je retournai pour essayer d'autres de vos délicieux plat :)
