City directories
Matcha cafes
City-by-city lists of cafes where matcha is the point: dedicated matcha cafes and tea producers' own shops. Each city is screened by hand, and each list is the complete set of places that qualified.
What qualifies
- Matcha is the reason the place exists — a dedicated matcha cafe, or a tea producer's own shop. A coffee shop with one matcha latte on the menu does not qualify.
- Every entry is checked individually: address, district, map position, and hours where they could be confirmed.
- Rejected: coffee-first menus with matcha on the side, closed venues, and chains where matcha is not the draw.
Why the lists are short
Most cities have only a handful of genuinely matcha-centric cafes, so a short list here is a complete answer, not a stub. A city page holds every place that passed screening — nothing padded in to make the list look longer. Where hours could not be confirmed, the entry says so instead of carrying a guess.
