A Matcha Made In Heaven: Places to Get Matcha Treats in Metro Manila

Here are some places where we can get our favorite matcha-flavored treats in Metro Manila

Matcha’s an acquired taste for most. Usually, the mellow earthy taste mixes well with the milk and the other ingredients. Unfortunately, preparing it can swing from tasting either too sweet or like high-quality grass. But somehow, our kids seem to like it. Even if it’s greener than their vegetables and they won’t eat those!

Luckily, we’ve found some places that know how to make delicious matcha treats! Here are some places we can buy or enjoy those goodies:

Places to Get Good Matcha Treats in Metro Manila

Tsujiri

Their soft-serve is what we go to Tsujiri for. Whether it’s their signature matcha one, their barley-tasting hojicha, or just a plain milk flavor, their sweets absolutely delight as a drink and as a sundae. A personal favorite is the Shiratama Sundae. It’s a mellow kind of sweet, courtesy of the Red Adzuki Beans and the Shiratama mochi. The texture of combining all three ingredients also makes it an easy eat too!

Tsujiri also has some matcha-flavored cakes, like the Matcha Citrone. They have the Yuzu Cheese Mousse also, but that needs to be ordered at least four (4) days in advance.

They have multiple branches in malls such as Podium and Greenhills Mall.

The Matcha Tokyo

Specializing in all things matcha, The Matcha Tokyo has been using matcha in other culinary desserts. Their most recent being the rich, chewy Matcha Butter Mochi infused with pistachio-kunafa delight, and the decadent Dubai Chocolate Cookie overflowing with molten spread, crowned with velvety Matcha Soft Serve.

They also serve coffee and balance their Dirty Matcha Latté quite well. Though the earthy taste is still there, it doesn’t clash with the nutty notes of the coffee and the richness of the milk.

The Matcha Tokyo has several branches near the metro: Opus Mall, Robinsons Magnolia, and Robinsons Antipolo.

Matcha Super

Newly opened last October 15, 2025, at the 3/F of Greenhills Mall, Matcha Super by the Super Food Grocer offers both matcha and houjicha treats. The hidden nook serves drinks and pastries, including a Croque Madame to enjoy with their matcha drinks.

Matcha is truly the superstar in their selection. They have the Malted Cereal Milk Matcha, Watermelon Matcha, Hot Chocolate Matcha, and many others. But for those just wanting to try things out, Matcha Superior. They even offer sweetness and matcha levels.

Papermoon Café

Known for their crepe cakes, Papermoon Café has a matcha-flavored entry for that particular dessert. Dusted with matcha on top, the Matcha Mille Crepe Cake is layered beautifully with a mixture of both matcha and powdered sugar. It’s definitely a cake for someone who loves matcha but at the same time, doesn’t want a cake that glares in green.

Papermoon Café has multiple branches in the metro, including in SM Aura, Vertis North, and Robinsons Magnolia.

Matcha Mama

Based in both White Plains, Quezon City, and Forbes Town, BGC, Matcha Mama is a manifestation of a daughter’s learned love of matcha from her mom. Originally starting with bottled matcha lattés, founder Julienne Atienza eventually expanded Matcha Mama’s menu with other sweet delights.

Her bottled matcha lattés are perfect for moms or kids on the go but just need their matcha fix. But for those who have the time to slow down and enjoy a perfectly steeped cup of matcha or gelato, their Pink Hokkaido Milk Gelato with a Matcha Cookie is a must-try!

Wasachi

Families now have another reason to linger a little longer at Rockwell. Beside Fully Booked, Wasachi has opened its serene doors—a love letter to matcha and mindful living. Known for its ceremonial-grade Japanese green tea and artful drinks, Wasachi invites families to slow down and reconnect over something beautifully simple: a shared cup.

Every detail, from the earthy aroma of fresh whisked matcha to the soft hum of conversations, feels like a pause in the city’s rush. Whether it’s a weekend treat with the kids or a quiet catch-up after book shopping, Wasachi turns an ordinary afternoon into a warm, green embrace—proof that sometimes, the best family memories begin with tea.

Why do people like matcha?

Most people like matcha because of the mellow, earthy flavor while still offering some caffeine. Unlike coffee, which can feel like someone punched us when brewed right and strong, matcha is soothing. It’s like being blanketed by one of those fleece throw blankets on a cold, rainy day.

Other benefits from Matcha include:

• Boosts Energy and Focus: Matcha contains natural caffeine and L-theanine, which work together to provide sustained energy without the crash.
• Rich in Antioxidants: Packed with catechins, especially EGCG, matcha helps combat free radicals and supports overall cellular health.
• Supports Metabolism and Weight Management: Matcha may help boost metabolism and fat oxidation, making it a favorite for those maintaining an active lifestyle.
• Enhances Calm and Mental Clarity: The amino acid L-theanine promotes relaxation and focus, helping reduce stress while keeping you alert.
• Strengthens Immunity: Matcha’s antioxidants, vitamins, and chlorophyll support the body’s natural defenses and detoxification processes.
