Stumbled upon MPC on our way back from dinner and HOLY CRAP, THIS PLACE IS SO CUTE! Loved the overall ambiance, the green aura, and also loved that the entire menu had pictures to help clients decide what they wanted to try. I got the Ube Ice Cream and cannot wait to try more things off the menu! read more

I came in from California and immediately started searching for a matcha spot. I was in the area and came across it. They offer samples of their soft serve flavors! I personally thought the matcha one was the best. The service was quick and informative. And I loved the little booths they had, it was adorable. That aside, I do think the drinks are mediocre. I ordered their most popular, Mango Matcha and their Hojicha Latte. Sadly I was disappointed, the mango matcha was VERY sweet, but the texture was creamy. I just couldn't get over the overpowering sweetness of the mango puree, but that's my personal preference. The mango flavor itself wasn't bad! Maybe half sweet would be the way to go, Im not sure if they do adjustments. If you love yuzu, I don't recommend their yuzu soft serve HOWEVER their matcha soft serve is pretty yummy Their Hojicha was watery...I really hoped it would be better. I don't recommend it. No further comments. read more

High quality matcha ice cream. Tastes like high quality matcha ice cream, not the sugary stuff. Loved it. Strong matcha taste warning for those of you who are not ready for the real deal. Ube cream puff was decent. A taste of ube, airy cream (not dense), and a good puff. Expensive though. So I'd focus on the matcha items. Cute spot if you're trying to flex on your date with your matcha taste and eye for classy-hip cafe aesthetic. read more

I'm always wary of matcha cafes because they often disappoint and can suffer from any one of the matcha sins such as grassy matcha or watered down matcha. This place ,however, exceeded my expectations. I got the matcha latte with the matcha gelato and it was creamy, had a strong matcha flavor, and the drink itself was not too sweet. I also just love the decor around this place and how there were giant plushies in every stall. I would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for good matcha spot! read more

Came over on a Saturday afternoon at around 3:30 pm and we were able to order immediately. There were regular tables and booth seatings with giant plushies seated at some. They had some different options from cream puffs to drinks to ice cream desserts. Matcha Gelato - It was a pretty large sized ice cream and the matcha green was such a vibrant deep color. The gelato itself was creamy and smooth that contrasted well with the crunchy, fresh cone. We enjoyed the quality and the textures of the matcha ice cream and highly recommend this place if you're in the Chinatown area for dessert! read more

Wow! This place lives up to the yelp hype. I came here on New Year's Day ~ 4 PM. They were already sold out of the Matcha cake and something else that I wanted now that I can't recall. So I end up getting the Matcha crème brûlée hot drink with oat milk and it was so good. It is not too sweet but just slightly sweet, which is perfect. Desserts are best when it's not too sweet. And I got the Matcha puff which I couldn't help but compared to my favorite Bibble and sip matcha puff in New York City. It's smaller than the cream puff at Bibble and Sip, and just slightly more expensive, but it was still really good and the puff filling was incredibly light and again my favorite descriptor "not too sweet". The interior is also really cute and the large larger tables are reserved for three or more people. They also have cute giant stuffed animals at these tables that you can take photos with and just have a really warm and inviting on beyond. The service was also really great. It was my first time coming and the gentleman at the register came over to help me make my selection given how cold it is. I really wanted a hot drink and so he pointed me to the right direction. I'm so pleased with both of my items. And maybe I'll even swing back before heading back home to DC. Parking is a pain but it's a pain anywhere else in Chinatown. And the bathrooms were clean. read more

Such a small and cute matcha cafe, decorated with jumbo stuffed animals in each booth. Great for groups or a cozy cafe date. It is located in the Chinatown area of Philadelphia. The menu has a nice variety of matcha and non matcha drinks and desserts. I ordered the Iced Drip Jasmine Jade Latte (F5) with a shot of matcha. You can tell they use quality matcha from the first sip. It is strong with a deep, earthy flavor. The drink was not too sweet, which was perfect, and the matcha complemented the jasmine tea nicely. Very balanced overall. Staff were very kind and friendly. They explained how to best enjoy each drink and brought everything to our table, which was a thoughtful touch. read more

Great experience at Matcha Panda Café. The service was excellent and very attentive. The matcha drinks were rich, smooth, and full of flavor -- some of the best I've tried. The cream puffs and matcha ice cream were also fresh and delicious. The only downside is that they don't allow two people to sit in the booths, as there's a sign stating they are for groups of three or more. Aside from that, everything was great. Highly recommended for any matcha lover. read more

The space is very cute! Plenty of seating. There are a few tables for larger parties and a handful of smaller tables. The decor is pretty cute and customer service is pretty nice. You order up front and they'll bring your order once you're seated. The desserts were tasty but I think I'd want a little more matcha flavor. I still haven't tried the soft serve, that'll be next. The drinks are pretty good! I probably wouldn't get the coconut milk matcha again though - it's not made with coconut milk, it's made with milk + coconut powder, which kinda defeats the purpose. Still decent though. Nice little post dinner spot to go with friends/fam/date! read more

We came here twice during our mini weekend getaway! The first time, i got it to go. I got banana matcha and strawberry matcha. Both the drinks were really good, good matcha flavor. The second time, we were exploring the area so we sat down to enjoy some drinks and desserts. We got ube gelato, ube cream puff, avocado matcha and a tea drink (can't remember which one). Ube gelato was really creamy and good! The cream puff wasn't bad but the shell was a bit hard and very crumbly. Avocado matcha was meh, it wasn't sweet enough. The tea was good. The staff there were extremely nice and sweet. The cafe was very cute with booth seating which was really nice. Definitely recommend! read more

My friend told me when I came to visit Philly that there wasn't a lot of REALLY good matcha places in her area. So I hunted around and found Matcha Panda! We visited and the place was very pretty! I loved the decor and the big stuffed animals they had at the booths! The staff was very very friendly! We got the creme brûlée, the banana milk, the banana milk matcha, and the gelato bomb drink! We were all extremely impressed by the quality and strength of the matcha. After having very watered down, pale green matcha drinks, we were in heaven. All of us could not stop singing praises for each others drinks. Not a single bad thing to say about any of them. The gelato bomb had the most smooth, perfectly sweet delicious gelato on top and a pretty un sweetened matcha underneath. It was an amazing combo. The banana milk matcha felt like drinking banana bread in the best way (we got another before we left). Everything was totally amazing. We all considered buying an entire tin to bring all the way back home. I would absolutely recommend Matcha Panda to anyone who truly loves Matcha read more

Decent matcha, though the strawberry purée was pretty good. The staff instructed me to take a few sips first without stirring then to mix the drink after. I've been to many matcha places in my life and this was the first place that recommend I drink a certain way. The drink felt a bit small. The cream puff was not too sweet. It was a good and light dessert though it was unique to me. The cream puff exterior was crunchy and crumbly. I wasn't used to that texture for cream puffs. I really liked the ambiance. There's a good amount of seating. This seems like a great place to go with friends. read more

The vibe was very nice and great customer service. Matcha soft serve was really good. Crème brûlée latte was okay

Their roasted green tea soft serve surprised me with how creamy it was. Reminded me of peak McDonalds soft serve. Their cream puffs were very different from traditional cream puffs like beard papas. The pastry was less bready and more of a brittle puff pastry. They were served cold and the filling was not overwhelmingly sweet. Super cute interior with huge stuffed animals at each booth and moody lighting. The service was quick and staff were very helpful. read more

Super cute matcha cafe! I saw this when I was looking up cafes near the convention center. The decor is so nice. The dark green, wood, mirrors, and giant stuffed animals go very well together. My favorite thing from here was the matcha gelato. The panda on top of the matcha latte was cute, but I wouldn't get that again. Service was great. You order at the front and then the food is brought out to you. There were outlets at my table (seated 2) and the bigger tables could probably fit 4-6 people and people were studying in those areas with their laptops. read more

I got the same drink twice in the same week. The first time I loved it, but the second time I felt like the strawberry overpowered the matcha a little. Overall it is good and the bear on top was super cute. I added boba both times which was a fun plus. You order at the front of the restaurant and they bring it to the table. We sat at a table with a big cow stuffed animal and the restaurant was super cute. Great place to hang out! Excited to try some desserts next time. read more

Their baked goods are usually pretty good, not overly sweet and nicely flavored. My favorite is definitely the cream puff, any flavor is good - matcha, ube, chocolate, or if they come out with any seasonal flavors. The crepe cakes are good too, usually the matcha is the go-to, strong flavor, light texture, not heavy to eat at all. Their drinks and ice cream lack a bit flavor and also there are not too many menu options. read more

Matcha Panda Cafe - Desserts Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This cafe focuses on cuteness to serve matcha centric desserts. There are tables that are seated with a giant plush that are great for larger parties. The requirement is that only 3+ people per party are allowed to sit here. When I went, there were not many other customers and absolutely no 3+ groups of people so I was surprised when this rule was enforced. I ordered the roasted green tea gelato cup. The gelato on top was a mild hojicha taste with not much tea flavor as well as undetectable sweetness. I suspect that they forgot to add sugar so I was quite disappointed. The strawberry was freeze dried and not what I expected. I wish they gave fresh strawberry slices as that would have better complement the dessert. The bottom was some sort of coconut cream/milk. It did not fit well with the dessert as well. Overall, the dessert felt like a haphazardly put together mishmash of unrelated flavors. Perhaps their other items are better here but the gelato is something I would not get again! read more

cute spot in chinatown focusing on matcha inspired drinks and desserts. i ordered the natural fruit tea series, the drink was refreshing and the matcha foam was tasty as well. wasn't really matcha-forward unfortunately. my friend ordered the matcha boba crème brûlée which he enjoyed. i didn't try it myself, but the boba-tea ratio looked off... he was left with all boba at the end. we wanted to order the cream puffs, but they were out which was quite disappointing considering that's one of their more popular items. overall, this spot is pretty much what you would expect for a matcha focused cafe. there was one staff member at the front who was pleasant, but there really isn't much service to comment on. i'll try matcha cafe maiko next time... read more

Love this place for groups (4 and under), dates, post dim sum, family whatever - it's great! It's great for matcha and dessert lovers. I recommend anything matcha and the cream puffs! I'm lactose intolerant and they were nice to adjust my matcha but definitely ask first because there's a lot of heavy cream usage in these sweet Asian drinks. What makes this place stand out in Chinatown has to be the decor and the aesthetic of this place! It's cute, nice, clean and modern. read more

The BEST matcha I've ever had. The matcha was so creamy and so delicious. It was perfectly mixed with NO CLUMPS. There was a limited number of decaf options (one), so that was kind of a bummer as someone with a severe caffeine sensitivity. The service was amazing.
