If nothing else, come here for the adventure of finding it.
At first glance, the map might make you think it's in the shopping center with 99 Ranch Market at the northeast corner of Lamar and Airport (sometimes called The Crescent).
It is not.
Instead, if you're heading north on Lamar, turn just before the train tracks onto a side street that feels more like an industrial area than an area that would have a tea shop. Drive to the end, and you'll spot a seafoam-blue shed with "Matcha" and an arrow. Follow the arrow, and in the far corner of the parking lot, you'll find even more of that seafoam color--and you've arrived.
The menu is small, featuring just four matcha drinks, but the quality is solid, the baristas are friendly, and it looked like they had a rotating blend of unique syrup flavors. There are a few outdoor picnic tables under the shade of some trees, making for a nice, laid-back spot to enjoy your drink.
It's an unexpected but charming matcha shop tucked away in an industrial park, and while they have another location on Barton Springs, the original is worth checking out for the experience alone.
