    I was nearby and gave this spot a try. I love their jasmine matcha because the tea flavor is strong and it's not too sweet

    Jasmine Matcha and sesame
    Sylvia K.

    Came here on a Friday night around 9:30pm. They close at 10pm. We were able to sample a few before selecting our flavors. We ordered a regular with jasmine matcha and sesame. They were so good. Definitely recommend this place!

    Apple white champs a matcha

    The drink was great! I wanted to try something completely different than what I get at a coffee shop, boba shop, or matcha store. I came across the apple white champaca matcha which tasted like apple juice and matcha combined. It's unique to me, and I could definitely get used to this drink. Service wise, it was great. I ordered through the kiosk and got my drink pretty fast. My interaction with staff was minimal at best.

    Been wanting to come here and I finally got to give it a try and have been going back trying new products. This time I got the gelato large and it turned out to be a perfect combination with the yuzu citrus, black sesame and mango. Fruity citrusy and nutty all in one bite. You order on a kiosk and line up and pick your flavors. Limited seating inside so we did enjoy it in the car. Can't wait to go back.

    Pineapple Passionfruit & Matcha No 3
    Stephanie L.

    Was in the area & I didn't know there was a matcha town located in this plaza, so that was exciting! I've tried their drinks before, but this time, I wanted to try out their gelatos. I sample majority of the flavors & opted for a passionfruit pineapple & matcha no 3. Both flavors were really good & creamy, & it was a nice balance of sweet & tart.

    Matcha Town First Visit My first time at Matcha Town, and I had such a great experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about their products, which made choosing a drink even more enjoyable. I ordered the Lime Cloud Mascarpone Matcha with cheese cold foam on the side, and it was delicious! ‍ The flavors came together so well, and it was definitely a drink I would order again. Thank you to all the staff for your patience. Definitely recommend this location. Great drink, great service, and a wonderful first visit!

    Sad this matcha spot didn't live up to my expectations :( considering its convenient location. The pricing is kinda steep for what you get. There are only regular sized drinks, no upgrades to large/no large cup options. There is no option to change ice levels. Most drinks come out to be at least $6.50+ and that's not including any additional toppings or upgrades. The workers are nice but not as efficient as other tea shops such as Heytea. It took at least 20 minutes for the drinks to come out and there were not that many customers in the store. The numbers being called were past our numbers and we had only ordered 2 drinks. The team could do better in training workers on efficiency The salted cheese Jasmine latte I ordered was alright and the pink guava matcha latte was good, but nothing mind blowing in my opinion Overall, I don't think I'd be coming back unless I'm desperately craving matcha in the area or unless they change some things

    Salted Cheese White Champaca Matcha

    The parking lot is shared with H Mart so it can get busy. There are only a couple seats inside and it feels like mostly a to go place. Ordering is through a kiosk, which I love. I got the Salted Cheese White Champaca Matcha. This was good. There was a hint of champaca and the salted cheese foam was tasty, but I kept wishing the matcha itself came through more. I guess that's my mistake for ordering one of the flavored drinks instead of something like the Pure Matcha. I'll try that one next time. The No. 5 matcha is their strongest matcha gelato flavor and it was fantastic. This one has a deep matcha flavor and definitely leans bitter. I can see it being too bitter for some people, but that was what I enjoyed about it.

    We came across this place online and realized it was practically right next to our house, so after washing our car today, we decided to stop by for a little treat. This location used to be a Jamba Juice, but it's been transformed into a really cute and inviting shop. Ordering was easy through the kiosk. My daughter tried the new Strawberry Matcha, and I ordered a Matcha Latte with oat milk. One thing that pleasantly surprised me was that there wasn't an extra charge for oat milk, which seems pretty rare these days. We noticed a sign outside saying you get a discount on your first order if you use the app. We ended up ordering at the kiosk instead, so we missed out. It would be nice if the discount also applied to first-time kiosk orders. Everything on the menu looked delicious. The ice cream and cakes especially caught our attention. The cakes looked beautiful, although they were a bit on the pricey side. We'll definitely be back to try them another time. My daughter said the Strawberry Matcha was better than many of the other places we've tried, which is saying a lot. I enjoyed my Matcha Latte, but this one didn't wow me, so I think I'll try a different drink next time to find my favorite. Overall, a great addition to the neighborhood, and we'll definitely be back!

    Salted Cheese Jasmine Matcha
    Susan C.

    It's been a while since I went to a matcha/tea spot and thought "Wow! This is amazing!" However, Matcha Town exceeded all my expectations, and that was indeed what I thought when I had the first sip of my drink. We went in on a weekday evening and there were a couple of people in the store. It's relatively small with not really any seating, and you place your order on a kiosk to the side. I ordered the salted cheese jasmine matcha with 70% sweetness. I do like my drinks on the sweeter side, so I thought this was the perfect sugar level. The matcha really came through while the sweetness enhanced it. The floral jasmine flavor was also really fragrant. I love when drinks have a savory component as well, so the salted cheese really topped off the drink perfectly. Matcha Town also has a wide selection of gelato flavors, so I'd love to come back to try the gelato. Perhaps I'll get the salted cheese matcha float if I'm feeling extra decadent next time!

    Matcha Latte

    Located in the H Mart shopping center, parking can be quite hectic even on a weekday. The interior is clean and they have an ordering kiosk, which makes ordering convenient. I got the matcha latte with matcha cheese foam and was a little nervous about the cheese foam, but it had a strong matcha flavor and wasn't cheesy at all! The matcha was good quality and the sweetness was just right. They also offer gelato and other sweets, so there's something for everyone.

    Kay D.

    A little in the sweeter side but it was absolutely fire. The matcha was strong the ice cream was balanced and creamy and the bases for both drinks I got were flavored nicely the service was good though they are busy so it's always a little wait the ambiance is nice and beautiful in the inside - very green.

It was just left at "order confirmed" and I walked in at the time it said it word be ready expecting them to not have started due to the tracker and they pulled from fridge when I arrived. 2.) all 3 drinks tasted watered down. Not sure how early they made these. 3.) lychee fruit tea was flavorless. Absolutely no lychee flavored and taste like sugar when I ordered 0%. Paid a $1 for aloe Vera and was pretty skimpy on it. 4.) coco mango is literally blended coco milk and ice and mango syrup left at the bottom. Just so artificial. 5.) egg coffee was ok, but again watered down. Would not order online again since their tracking bar didn't work or workers chose not to update. The cups/serving was pretty big, so if you care about quantity vs quality- you'll enjoy this place.

It makes it super worth the price too. Because I felt I was getting a higher quality drink for the same place as elsewhere (about 8$ with taxes) For location, it's inside of a bigger store, so don't get confused. Also if you're in a rush, they make the drinks per order and the matcha takes a while. You'll generally have to wait 10-15 minutes, so not great for a quick lunch stop during your break or something like that (that's when I initially went ). But I would definitely return when I have the time.

They're strong in…read morethe best way: you can actually taste the tea or matcha, and the citrus comes through bright and fruity. So far I've tried the yuzu, mango cloud, passion fruit, and hojicha brown sugar, and there wasn't a miss among them. Plenty of flexibility on sugar and ice levels too. The setting is a nice bonus. It shares a space with a small market, another café, and a food stall, so there's plenty to eat and browse. It's tucked in the back of the complex, which keeps it quiet and low-traffic, and there's plenty of seating. Parking is easy too, with a lot right there. The reason this isn't five stars is the cup system and how my return was handled. If you're staying in, you can borrow their cups for free, but for to-go you need to bring your own vessel or pay a $2 deposit on one of their jars, refunded when you return it. I get the idea, and it's nice for the planet, but in practice it's a hassle. When I brought my jar back on this visit, the staff member inspected every inch of it, then discussed it with a coworker right in front of me, who then said something along the lines of "we can't sell that, but it's okay, just take it." It wasn't said to me directly, but I was standing right there, and it felt uncomfortable. I'd run the jar through the dishwasher, nothing unusual, and friends who came in afterward returned theirs the same way with no issue at all. They also didn't apply the discount for bringing my own vessel until I asked. Between the pushback on the return and having to ask for the discount, it was a frustrating experience. Honestly, I'd rather a café just use compostable paper cups. Great drinks, but I'm on the fence about coming back.

    Really lovely little coffee shop that leans into that industrial warehouse vibe in the best way…read more The coffee was great--I ended up trying both on-tap cold brews on the day we went because I didn't realize that buying a bag of whole bean coffee came with a free coffee drink. With some coffees a second cup will give me a stomach ache (especially since I drink my cold brews black and bitter like my soul), but I had no problems with their cold brews! I also got the vegan stonefruit scone (baked by Sweet Dragon) and while a little on the dry side (common with scones), paired extremely well with the coffee and had good flavor. Husband got a cappuccino and a strawberry mini pie and was extremely pleased with his order. The service is friendly, but some things may have been new on the day we went. They almost forgot my cold brew until we asked at the counter, as well as stating that they didn't have anything to heat up my husband's strawberry pie (which seems odd, since a little toaster oven seems like a simple fix for that), but apparently it was fantastic at room temperature anyway. Seating was absolutely full when we got there and we were lucky to snag a table as another couple left, so it seems like a popular Saturday morning spot. Several folks were working on laptops, and it seems like a kid-friendly place. The decor is a clean and modern/trendy industrial style, which works well for the space, and the windows provide nice daylight. Overall, a good coffee shop and I am really happy to see vegan pastry options! My husband is getting into pinball, which was part of the motivation to come out and try Chromatic, so I am sure we'll be back again next time he wants to hit up Slingshot (in the same building), and I look forward to the coffee and treats!

The seating area is quite limited for the large crowd it attracts, making the atmosphere inside feel a bit chaotic at peak times. Fortunately, the baristas are super polite and work fast, keeping the long lines moving efficiently. The coffee menu and the retail bean selection are both impressive. I decided to try a dulce de leche coffee. While I was expecting a strong caramel profile of dulce de leche, the flavor turned out to be fairly subtle rather than prominent. It added a significant sweetness, but without knowing the order beforehand, identifying the exact flavor would have been tough. That said, the coffee itself was still refreshing The high quality of the coffee bean really shone through, delivering a rich aroma and the ideal caffeine kick for a breezy morning. Great coffee beans and fast service make it worth dropping in, even if the indoor seating situation is a bit tight.

Occasionally burnt espresso but I love them too much to mind. I am a matcha snob to say the LEAST. Hands down best coffee shop matcha in the Bay Area. The classic iced matcha latte with honey is grassy and earthy and creamy and a little sweet. The iced banana pudding matcha latte had people lined up around the corner for months when it came out. It is deliciously worth the wait. Best banana cold foam in my opinion because it's made with actual bananas instead of flavoring so it's much more mellow. The double matcha they had for awhile is also awesome. Banana cold foam also goes great on an espresso latte. Now they let you add whichever cold foam you like to whatever drink which is great. Basically you can't go wrong. They are always changing up the menu for the new season and have lots of unique drinks on their menu. Not much seating inside at this location.
