About
Metcha Matcha holds the distinction of being Tottenham's first Japanese café, a welcoming neighbourhood spot on Philip Lane that grew out of the team behind SushiHeads. The menu centres on Japanese latte drinks — matcha, kurogoma (black sesame), and hojicha — alongside handmade onigiri, Japanese sando sandwiches, and home-baked cakes. The shop also stocks a curated selection of Japanese grocery items, including Haruka sushi rice and frozen gyoza, making it a one-stop destination for local Japanese food lovers. The relaxed atmosphere and community focus make it a genuinely neighbourhood institution in a part of London rarely served by Japanese cuisine.
