Matcha Me

Ohio's best matcha! Seriously the cutest little matcha shop. Simple menu but I wanted to try everything. I ordered an iced strawberry matcha with oat milk and it was delicious. The matcha is high quality - ceremonial grade - and tastes amazing. They also have homemade poptarts that looked delicious. There are two little tables with chairs inside - a bright and happy space to work. Can't wait to come back!

I really wanted to like this place. The service was good. To my knowledge they use ceremonial grade matcha, and their menu looked unique and appetizing. I love matcha, so I was excited. I got the strawberry matcha latte, but it was disappointingly bad. The strawberry syrup/puree was way too strong and artificial, overpowering the slightly bitter matcha. The flavors didn't go well together at all. They also provide sugar-based straws, which is a cute gimmick for the first 30 seconds until it starts disintegrating in your mouth and drink. In the end I was finishing my drink from a tube of broken sugar shards. The quality of the sugar was also very poor and grainy, and did not go well with the flavors of the drink. This is a very small store with only 2-3 tables for seating and a very low ceiling. It was not ventilated very well when I went, but that may be due to how cold it's been and management trying to keep heat in.

I'm a bit of a matcha snob, I'll admit I'm usually pretty picky when it comes to matcha spots. I despise the light green lower grade matchas. I've had my fair share of matcha drinks in LA and NYC, so when I stumbled upon Matcha Me on TikTok and learned that it was here in Columbus, I had to check it out. To my surprise, this cute little shop offers some of the best matcha I've had outside of those big cities!The shop keeps things simple, but in the best way possible. The menu is full of unique and thoughtfully crafted flavors that still let the matcha shine. It's hand whisked, which I love to see. I tried the salted honey matcha, it was so good--perfectly balanced with just the right touch of sweetness and saltiness. I got the oat milk sub and I need to know where they get their oat milk from, because it was dee-licious, so creamy and smooth. And the matcha color came out a perfect emerald green. It's refreshing to see a place that focuses on quality matcha.

Im really glad this matcha bar is located just north of OSU campus, as there's a lot more street parking in this area and makes it easier for non-college people to get in and out. The inside is quite small, heads up. Two two-seat tables and space for a small maybe three or four-person "line" if you want to call it that. I really like how the matcha powder is mixed right in front of customers' view and I can see what's going into my to-go cup. And the matcha is legit grade, big bonus! I don't like espresso, but did want something more than just matcha and plain milk, so I tried their Einspanner Matcha Latte. I forgot to say hot, so it came cold with ice (I'm not an ice fan); the gals working gladly offered to make me a new one, but I threw caution to the wind and took it as is. Verdict? Mmmm mmm mmmm! Smooth, cool, just enough ice but as it melted the flavor was still there 100 percent. I think I got a hint of hazelnut too, so I'm not sure if the gal added a squirt of that too based on our convo; maybe that's what the cream top was...? At any rate, the drink was fantastic! This is a great addition to the neighborhood, indeed.

A teeny tiny little matcha shop tucked into High Street. I loved it! The strawberry matcha latte (modified with oatmilk) was delicious. The strawberry flavor isn't strong at all once mixed, but it mellows out the bitterness of the matcha. It's a very earthy, soft drink with subtle sweetness, unless you take a bite of the straw or drink some of the settled syrup at the bottom. The straw gets mushy and collapses after a long while, but I enjoyed drinking through it while it lasted. Having it sit in the bottom of the cup didn't seem to affect the flavor much. Note that the edible strawberry straws are NOT vegetarian. My friend's matcha lemonade was also delicious. Very refreshing and mellow.The service was friendly and appropriately quiet for such a tiny, minimalist environment. As much as I recommend it, I hope it remains a small, calm environment. There are 2 small tables inside for sitting.

They've been on my list since I've seen posts about them on IG. My friend and I were walking around the neighborhood and stopped by.It's a tiny space. Two tables with a couple chairs but the register is right by the door so it can get tight if there's too many people inside.I ordered the strawberry matcha while my friend opted for the matcha with a vanilla cream on top, called the Einspinner. Pretty looking drinks!I didn't think my drink had as strong of a matcha flavor as my friends. So I did like hers a bit more but I'm glad both drinks weren't too sweet. They only served the drinks iced so I'm wondering if they could make them hot.They have a lot of info about their matcha on their website and IG if you're interested. It seems to be of high quality! I will come back to try other stuff from their menu.

This new matcha cafe specializes in lattes and handcrafted matcha drinks! You can choose from refreshing options like their strawberry matcha latte, which also came with a cool, edible strawberry flavored straw, or their Einspänner matcha latte. I wished the strawberry flavor was a bit stronger for the strawberry matcha but the strawberry definitely added more strawberry flavor to it. The Einspänner matcha was very creamy and not too sweet. You could tell they definitely put a lot of effort and craft into the matcha tea. If you're not into matcha, they also offer non-matcha options like their salted honey latte or Einspänner latte. Service was quick since there were not many people. If you're looking for baked goods, they have pop tarts and croissants They are a small shop that's tucked away on the street. There are two small tables with seating if you want to enjoy the drink indoors. Would be a good place to stop by if you're in the N High Street area!

This place is very hidden and you will probably not find it unless you hear of it elsewhere. It's unfortunate because it is very good. Inside is very clean but tiny with no ventilation, so it can get hot in there with a lot of people. There are a couple of tables inside if you want to enjoy your matcha indoors. The employees inside are very professional and take pride in their work. They made the drinks carefully and even wiped down the rims of the cups so they were presentable. They use authentic matcha and make it in front of you so you can learn how it's made while you wait. The flavors were fantastic. It is a little on the pricier side but that's what you get with authentic matcha. Parking is a disaster since it is around the campus area.

Super small little shop by the university, there is a good amount of street parking since it is a bit off campus! The two girls working were so sweet and it was SO busy, they just kept it moving and orders came out quickly! I had the strawberry matcha latte, it was delicious and my first "real matcha" not from Starbucks I loved it! I would definitely go back and next time try the iced matcha (with the water instead of milk latte style) with a scoop of their cream top, it looked incredible!

Matcha Me is a real cute place located on campus that I think is fairly new. They're a pretty small location, but surprisingly were able to fit a decent amount inside. They're very nice folks and they put so much attention and details to yours drinks. They have non-dairy milk options too! They properly make and add their matcha by finely brushing it into the drink. We got the Strawberry Matcha Latte and the Einspanner Latte and they were AMAZING. The matcha tasted so fresh and clean, unlike many other places where can taste the preservatives. It's slightly more expensive than other matcha, but this is TRUE matcha made with much detail that tastes outstanding so more than worth it.
