The Capital
City Guide
From dedicated matcha specialists like Roaffees and Matcha House to ceremonial grade at Subko and the iconic Cha Bar, Delhi NCR's matcha scene has grown into one of India's most exciting.
📍 Greater Kailash, Delhi
Subko brings their Japanese-inspired matcha experience to Delhi. Ceremonial grade sourced directly from Japan, prepared with precision in a beautifully considered space. If you want to understand what great matcha tastes like in Delhi, ceremonial grade, proper technique, no compromises. This is still the reference point.
📍 New Delhi
One of Delhi's highest-rated matcha destinations, 5 stars across 200+ reviews, with regulars calling it "one of Delhi's best matcha" experiences. Roaffees earns the tag of cozy and classy without feeling pretentious. The matcha is clearly taken seriously here, not just bolted onto a coffee menu as an afterthought.
📍 New Delhi
Delhi's best argument for a matcha-only menu. Matcha House is rated 4.9 stars and sits in the ₹400–600 range, a price point that signals premium sourcing rather than trend-chasing. Dine-in and takeaway only (no delivery), which tends to mean a more considered experience. A serious matcha destination for people who have moved past the latte phase.
📍 New Delhi
4.9 stars and a focused matcha menu, Martini Matcha sits in the sweet spot between accessible and quality-driven. The name suggests playfulness but the execution is serious. Kerbside pickup available makes it easy for a quick quality fix without sitting in. Popular with Delhi's matcha-aware crowd who want something better than a chain latte.
📍 Gurugram, Haryana (NCR)
Gurugram's dedicated matcha club, "club" in the sense of a place with real intentions around matcha quality. 5-star rated, in the ₹400–600 range, with dine-in and delivery available. The best matcha destination in the NCR if you're based in or around Gurugram, and worth making the trip for from Delhi proper.
📍 New Delhi
The name means "spring and summer" in Japanese, and the aesthetic follows through. Haru Natsu is a 5-star rated café with 53 reviews, a price range that signals quality sourcing, and a Japanese-inspired sensibility across the menu. Matcha is central to what they do rather than incidental. A discovery-level spot that Delhi's matcha community keeps to themselves.
📍 New Delhi
Boba, ramen, poke, and matcha. Green Neko covers a lot of ground but the matcha is genuinely good. The coconut matcha has picked up a fanbase in Delhi, earning the sort of review that ends with "really good and the staff were very friendly." 4.8 stars across nearly 900 reviews. A fun, casual option when you want matcha with a side of boba energy.
📍 Deer Park, New Delhi
4.6 stars with 1,700+ reviews, Got Tea at Deer Park has clearly found its crowd. The matcha tea with cold foam and bubbles is their signature, and reviews suggest it earns its reputation ("mind blowing" is a word that comes up). A casual, high-volume spot that takes matcha seriously enough to do something interesting with it.
📍 Majnu Ka Tilla, New Delhi
One of Delhi's best-known all-day cafés, 4.5 stars, 30,000+ reviews, set in the Tibetan colony of Majnu Ka Tilla. The matcha is a recent addition that's developed its own following: "the coffee here is heavenly, added to that the matcha is a new found love" captures the vibe. Come for the setting and the energy, stay for the matcha.
📍 Connaught Place, Delhi (Oxford Bookstore)
Tucked inside the Oxford Bookstore at Connaught Place, Cha Bar is one of India's most celebrated tea destinations, 200+ teas including matcha, inside one of Delhi's most iconic buildings. The bookstore setting makes it a pilgrimage for any tea lover visiting the capital.
📍 Safdarjung Enclave, Delhi
Delhi's finest jazz venue doubles as a café with serious attention to its drinks menu. Matcha drinks sit alongside a craft cocktail programme. Visit for the music, stay for the matcha. Evening sessions here are special in a way that's hard to replicate.
📍 Pragati Maidan, Delhi
Café Lota sits within the National Crafts Museum complex, one of Delhi's most design-conscious cafés. Their modern Indian menu features thoughtful matcha drinks. Combine with a visit to the museum for a complete afternoon, especially in winter when the outdoor seating is perfect.
📍 Multiple locations, Delhi NCR
Blue Tokai has one of the widest footprints of any specialty brand in Delhi NCR. Their matcha latte is a permanent menu staple using Japanese-sourced powder, reliable wherever you are in the city. Not a destination, but a consistent daily option.
📍 Anand Lok & Chanakyapuri, Delhi
A Delhi classic known for its beautiful garden setting and relaxed, all-day vibe. Diggin's menu now includes matcha drinks. On a good Delhi winter morning, garden, matcha, no rush. There's nowhere quite like it.
Delhi's café scene moves fast. If there's a spot we've missed, we want to know.

Matcha House is a dedicated matcha bar in New Delhi and one of the small number of venues in the city built around matcha rather than adding it to a coffee menu. It sits in the premium band at roughly ₹400 to ₹600 a drink. It is listed with a directions link in the guide above, alongside Roaffees, Martini Matcha and ki'en Matcha Club.

Availability changes fast and no Delhi venue serves it reliably year round, so check before travelling. Dedicated matcha bars are the best bet, followed by Japanese restaurants. Frozen matcha is far easier to make at home than to find, and our no churn matcha ice cream recipe needs no machine.
