Nippon Cha
214 Bedford Ave, Brooklyn, NY
Crema's Take
“Nippon Cha is an authentically Japanese matcha destination where you can watch your drink whisked to perfection, and the care staff like Nadia bring to each cup rivals the quality matcha itself. Their matcha is genuinely exceptional—smooth, bright, and balanced—with thoughtful touches like brown sugar that add nutty depth, all at a fair price that punches above its weight for Brooklyn. Despite the cozy, intimate two-table space that fills up quickly, this is the real deal if you're serious about matcha, offering both the ritual and the flavor that transforms a rough day into something genuinely restorative.”

Nadia was so nice and patient asking all my questions. Best matcha latte I’ve had in a long time. Took me from feeling like a 3 to a 10 🫶🏼💕. Quality matcha and made my energy feel balanced and bright
I've been to a lot of different places for matcha and I have to say this place definitely wins on value for price! The large (16oz) with extra matcha & coconut milk was $13 after tax which is other places pricing for a smaller size without any drink upgrades. The team was quick to make orders and the space is small and clean. The matcha was creamy and had great umami flavor. Highly recommend!
great matcha! very smooth and even flavor, bright green color. the brown sugar is very delicious and adds a nutty depth of flavor. would highly recommend!!
One of the best matcha spots in NYC, strong, authentic, and genuinely good. It does get crowded and the space is pretty small; there are only two tables inside to sit and eat. Just a heads-up: the soft serve is made with whole milk, so for vegans the only option is getting a drink.
Nippon Cha is a truly authentic Japanese matcha shop. The place is very clean, and you can watch the entire process of how the drinks are made. There are also many unique Japanese items and decorations around the store, which makes it really fun to look around. A great spot for matcha lovers!
