    I stopped in to get some treats and when I arrived I parked in the plaza lot. I walked in and the place was really cute. I went to the nice young lady and ordered: Ube and Genmaicha Gelato Ube Matcha Latte Biscoff Hojicha Latte Matcha Basque Cheesecake Strawberry Lemonade If you are a matcha lover you would love this place! My favorite though was the Strawberry Lemonade and the Gelato! All in all a good experience!

    Machapresso might be one of the best matcha spots I've tried in NJ. The drinks are well made and not overly sweet. Hojicha float was excellent, and the ube matcha latte had a really smooth flavor combination. The matcha parfait was fun and packed with toppings like mochi, red bean, strawberries, and sea salt cream. Nice touch that you can choose how strong you want the matcha ice cream. Space is spacious and nicely designed, good for hanging out or working. Weekends can get busy, but understandable.

    Food So I came here to get a Matcha latte and they end up having gelato with 12 different flavors and you can sample them all they're unlimited flavors. My favorite was the black sesame and the Ube. There's four levels of Matcha from level one to level five and it goes from the sweetest to the most bitter Matcha flavor the drink I'm starting with today is the Biscoff Matcha latte which is the new featured lotte for this month and I also wanna try the strawberry Matcha cloud with the strawberry coconut water, cold foam and a Ube Matcha next. Service, the staff is very accommodating and welcoming to try all the gelato flavors and give good recommendations Ambience there is a high top table in the back that you could do work, but I don't see any outlets except on the walls but it's a nice café. They do have loud DJ Reggaeton music playing so I don't know if you could do work in here.

    I had been meaning to go to this place and I really enjoyed it! I finally decided to go and it did not disappoint! It is a little bit on the pricier side but I don't mind paying for high quality! I loved the interior of the store and its somewhere you can study or go to chat! The service was good and they let me taste the ice cream flavors I think the Matcha LVL3 is very deep and rich. The ube is also very rich in flavor and was such a good pairing with the matcha ice cream! Will definitely be back.

    If you are a matcha lover, you need to come to Matchapresso. The atmosphere inside is very clean and gives off that cool, mid-century modern aesthetic. The workers are super nice, even offering samples of the ice cream they have on hand while I was waiting. They have so many different options for matchas where you can adjust the type of sweetness you want from flavors while also substituting your milk. They have this kind of affogato drink, but instead of it being espresso and ice cream, they have matcha and ice cream. And the best part is that they have matcha-flavored ice cream with different intensities! They also have black sesame ice cream, which is one of my favorites. You can either order at the counter or use the iPads they have, which will show you their entire menu. I believe they have food as well as other drinks like hojicha, other teas, and coffee. Definitely worth a visit!

    While returning my Verizon equipment, the signage, Machapresso caught my eye. Oooh new matcha shop! I almost let out a yelp. The interior is aesthetically pleasing with a very Japanese vibe. Love all the decor and matcha green color scheme. Order at one of the two kiosks. It was hard to pick because all the drinks sound bomb. I decided to go with the Strawberry Matcha and my friend went with the Cloudy Hojicha Latte. There are alternative milk choices for $1 extra. You can choose the sugar level with 1, 2, or 3 pumps. They will call your name out when it is ready. As soon as I saw the dark green matcha color, I knew it would be legit. The drinks were a solid 10/10! I could taste the bitterness from the matcha (which is how I like it). Both the hojicha and matcha flavor came through equally in my friend's drink. He let me take a sip first. So frickin good. They also specialize in gelato. I visited on their soft-opening phase. Machapresso is now in my top 4 matcha spots in Central Jersey.

    Visited for the first time here after a few months after their opening hoping they can get it together lol. I had ordered the coconut water strawberry matcha. It was okay, mediocre to say the least. It was a bit expensive, city prices to be exact. I wanted a latte but it costs $1 for alternative milk. It's 2026, why are we charging extra for alternative milk, even Starbucks and Dunkins don't charge for other milk. I would probably try this spot again but it's nothing I'd drink from often.

    I am so glad they have this near me. I had a chance to visit today and it was everything. A matcha girl here and a cafe girl so I was throughly excited. The aesthetic such a vibe and calming. There is seating in the front and back, Everyone was really nice, you can order at the kiosk or at the counter. Although it was somewhat crowded they were still eager to assist. I ordered the matcha float with Ube and let's just say I wanted another. I wish this location much success and I predict I will be back very soon like tomorrow . A must try.

    I'm excited to see a more specialized matcha spot open up around this area, but so far think their drinks are just alright. I don't think the matcha is strong enough (either a matcha quality issue or they don't add enough matcha to their drinks) and the standard milk option seems to dilute a lot of the flavor. My friend's hojicha with pistachio milk was a lot better though, so maybe I'll give it another try after they get past the grand opening stage. Service was efficient and friendly.

    Matcha cloud latte and strawberry matcha

    Inside was very aesthetic and a great place to get work done. Service was excellent, staff was nice. Matcha cloud latte was good and strawberry matcha was okay. If you like your matcha sweet be sure to ask (they offer simple syrup or agave).

    My first review still stands since it's only been a few months and I've been back a few more times…read more Each visit was great with no complaints. My kids love going here even though they aren't adventurous with flavors. BUT I finally tried their ice cream cake. You can order online if you want specific flavors and they usually have premade ones if you just walk in. I walked in and just ordered in person. It was a Just-Because-I-Want-It cake disguised as a belated birthday cake (which it was, but I got it because I wanted to try it). I got a 6" cake with taro and milk tea flavors inside and it came with two small cones of ice cream on top (I chose soursop and red bean for those). It is not what I expected. It is almost all ice cream with a very thin whipped cream type "frosting" on the outside - and sprinkles! - that made it look like a normal cake until you cut into it. No layer of actual flour-based cake inside. It's solid ice cream. Since it's perfectly sweet, it worked great! Also excellent for those who may have a wheat allergy (unless you get the cookie flavors) so now I'm considering one for my kid with food allergies (but not to milk). And that's the update to my review. Still a stellar place to get ice cream.

    I am obsessed with this ice cream shop because:…read more The flavors are amazing! (Black sesame, Thai iced tea, etc). The owner is soooo sweet It's next to some of my favorite Asian food spots so it's a great place to end a meal with friends or to have a date night The only thing I don't love is it's not a picturesque location on route one and minimal seating but that doesn't stop me from coming here!

    This place is a gem and really deserves to be highlighted! Although it looks like a small shop on…read moreMain Street in Metuchen, it's a booming and popular bubble tea place. Love coming here and seeing people from toddler age to folks with their grandparents. Bubble tea is for all! My husband loves to try the new fruity varieties that get added to the menu. Every few weeks there is a new, unique fruit combination that blows him away. I stick to my tried and true Thai iced tea with boba, and NOWHERE else has been able to compete. The details are what makes this place stand out. If you buy multiple drinks, they place your order in an adorable, reusable purple bag. Also, there is a rewards program. So if you're an avid boba drinker, make sure you sign up. Every few orders you can score a free bite to eat or bubble tea. Since it's a hit spot, this place can get packed at peak times (post work hours, and especially on weekends). So happy to have such a lovely shop in my town. Thanks, Akihi!

    While exploring in Metuchen, I came across this dessert/bubble tea spot, and of course, I had to…read moretry it out. The inside was very different from your usual bubble tea spot, and it was very welcoming and cozy. I could definitely see myself just chilling and reading a book while enjoying my food and drink. I placed my order through the kiosk while looking over the menu, which had a lot of good options. I couldn't make up my mind and decided to go with the bubble tea and Oreo waffle crepe. Both items were good, and I enjoyed the waffle, which had ice cream as the filling and was stuffed with fillings, but it was a little difficult to eat since the wrapper is not very practical, and I had to use my hands, so it got a bit messy. Did I regret it? No way, I loved it; hopefully, they would just have a better container for it, lol. Definitely will get a sugar rush, so be careful hahaha. I would definitely go back to try the other flavors
