Crema's Take
“Gotcha Matcha & Espresso is an uptown Charlotte gem that's earned its stellar reputation by doing two things exceptionally well: crafting phenomenal espresso drinks and creating genuinely delicious matcha that regulars can't stop raving about. The energy here is infectious—cheerful staff, carefully curated music, and a warm atmosphere that makes it feel like a genuine local favorite rather than another coffee chain, making it perfect whether you're settling in for a slow afternoon or grabbing something quick before exploring the nearby museums.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Family friendly.

Hands down best coffee in uptown, phenomenal service along with a great attitude. It's our go to spot now
This is the best coffee/tea spot uptown hands down! The selection, quality, and energy are top tier!! I feel an instant boost of energy once I cross the threshold!
Delicious matcha with a smooth, creamy taste and perfect sweetness. The staff were friendly and cheerful — such a great experience! 💚
It's a cute little cafe with a good selection of drinks, caffeinated and no caffeine! The music played is nice and the staff are very friendly and helpful! Iwould definitely come back. Got a matcha and a tamarind refresher!
