“For The Ones Who Rarely Ask For A Break”
Some fathers are easy to spot.
They are loud. Celebratory. Expressive.
Others are quieter.
They wake up early without complaint. Drive without asking for thanks. Fix things before anyone notices they were broken. Carry responsibilities so naturally that it almost disappears into routine 👔
This Father’s Day, we’re dropping a 30% off for the ones who rarely indulge themselves.
Celebrate the fathers who have always prioritised everyone else first.

Zooming in on the new generation tea bar -
𝗗𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗮
Our take on the classic dirty matcha, topped with a lightly whipped matcha cream for a smoother, softer mouthfeel.
The creamy matcha layer helps balance the boldness of medium to dark roast espresso, rounding out its bitterness while allowing the earthy depth of matcha to come through more gently, while adding more body to the drink.
𝗬𝘂𝘇𝘂 𝗘𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼 𝗧𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰
A sparkling fizzy espresso brings a completely different dimension to coffee.
Brighter, lighter and far more refreshing than a regular iced latte or black coffee, the carbonation lifts the aromatics of espresso, allowing fruity, citrusy and floral notes to feel more pronounced while giving the drink a crisp, clean finish.
Lightly sweetened with citrusy yuzu paste.
𝗬𝘂𝘇𝘂 𝗙𝗶𝘇𝘇
Delicate tartness and floral aroma of yuzu come alive through the fizz, creating a drink that feels clean, zesty and incredibly refreshing.
Perfect drink to have after a long stroll through the sun-soaked streets of Tiong Bahru.

【Specialty Drink (ii)】
Not quite a mocktail. Not quite a tea.
This new series brings together our cold brewed
sparkling tea with flavours from our mocktails.
Cleaner, fizzier and a little more sophisticated.
𝗦𝗮𝗸𝘂𝗿𝗮 𝗥𝗼𝘀𝗲
A romantic sparkling drink inspired by the late spring
gardens filled with bed of roses. Layered with
delicate sakura, strawberry compote and refreshing
ade.
Graceful and almost dreamlike - like late spring
captured in a glass.
𝗠𝗼𝗺𝗼 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗮
Sparkling momo sencha blend layered with juicy
peach syrup, fresh lime and a touch of sea salt for a
finish that feels bright, clean and refreshing.
The gentle sweetness of momo pairs beautifully with the
light vegetal notes of Japanese sencha.
𝗬𝘂𝘇𝘂 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗮 𝗙𝗶𝘇𝘇
Elevated take on our all-time best-selling Matcha
Yuzu, now reimagined with sparkling fizz for an even
brighter and more refreshing finish.
Sparkling carbonation actually enhances this kind of drink
really well, especially with matcha and yuzu.
𝗟𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗬𝘂𝘇𝘂 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝗷𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗮
Sparkling houjicha blend layered with floral lavender,
bright yuzu, maple syrup and a dusting of cinnamon
powder.
The first sip of this immediately reminded us of the
Iyoshi Cola we had back in Japan.
Sweet yet zesty, with lively carbonation that makes the drink feel incredibly crisp and refreshing, while the roasted
depth of houjicha and cinnamon brings a warm, spiced aroma that lingers on the palate.
Cheers to a sharper take on modern tea drinking.

Introducing creations like Matcha Cloud 9, Brown Butter Houjicha and Goma Houjicha Noir - deeper, richer flavour profiles layered with complexity and balance.
𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗮 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱 9
A layered matcha creation crowned with a silky sea salt foam.
The savouriness of the sea salt lifts the natural umami and sweetness of matcha, creating a flavour profile that is unexpectedly addictive.
Like its name suggests, Matcha Cloud 9 is crafted to feel almost euphoric - smooth, creamy and playful, leaving you floating somewhere on cloud 9.
𝗕𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗕𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝗷𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗮
Deeply comforting houjicha creation topped with house-made brown butter foam. Butter is slowly cooked over low heat until caramelised and nutty, then blended with brown sugar and whipped into a light, velvety cream.
Paired with roasted depth of houjicha, the notes of toasted nuts, warm caramel and smoky tea come together in a way that feels smooth, rich yet balanced.
𝗚𝗼𝗺𝗮 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝗷𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗮 𝗡𝗼𝗶𝗿
Bold and nutty black sesame paste paired with deep roasted houjicha and fresh milk for a creamy finish.
Both ingredients share naturally nutty undertones that feel dark, smokey and toasty.

【Specialty Drink (i)】
Moving past the usual and building something that actually matches where we’re heading: Sharper. Bolder. More intentional.
We’ve thought hard and stripped everything back, rebuilding our menu from the ground up. Every single drink you see here is a study in texture, balance, and intentional flavour.
• Koicha Latte
• Matcha Cloud 9
• Matcha Latte
• Matcha Strawberry
• Houjicha Latte
• Brown Butter Houjicha
• Goma Houjicha Noir
This change honestly made us nervous too. But sometimes growth means rethinking familiar things and trusting the direction ahead.

【Matchaya 3.0】
Launch today.
A new chapter. Sharper. Bolder. More intentional.
We went back to the drawing board and reimagined what the modern tea experience could feel like — refreshing flavours, layered textures, thoughtful craftsmanship, and drinks designed to feel exciting again.
This is Matchaya, evolved.
And beyond drinks, we wanted the food experience to evolve alongside it. Our new food direction focuses on comforting Japanese-inspired flavours designed to complement our tea program — introducing Rice Burgers as a fun, satisfying addition that brings together convenience, flavour, and the Matchaya experience in one bite.

Intentionally fresh, delicate, and slightly unstable in the best way possible - the kind that slowly spreads and sinks when lifted.
It’s dessert that rewards slow eating.
When paired with tea, the texture contrast and lingering roasted notes of kinako become much more noticeable.
Available at all outlets.

Last weekend, our Tiong Bahru space played host to Tyler’s 1st birthday 🎈
Filled with balloons and the happiest energy, the party began with a buffet spread prepared by our in-house chefs for friends and family to enjoy.
The afternoon continued with fun activities, followed by soft serve after the meal, and a cake cutting session.
A beautiful first milestone, celebrated in a space made for moments like these! Happy 1st Birthday, Tyler! 🎉

【Space Takeover】
Hosted a team bonding session at Tiong Bahru, starting the evening with a casual buffet-style dinner.
There was a mix of comfort mains and light bites like mac and cheese, dashi chicken and takoyaki, alongside matcha and houjicha, and soft serve at the end as a tea+ssert ✨
After dinner, the group of 30 moved into the tea room for a guided matcha and wellness workshop. It was a slower, more focused session where they were introduced to ceremonial matcha, how it’s typically prepared, and how different profiles can vary in taste and texture.
From there, the format opened up into smaller group activities, almost like moving through different stations. One of the first was a smear test, where participants tried 3 different matcha powders side by side without knowing what grades they were, just to get a feel of the differences before revealing 🍵
The last part brought everything together with a DIY ceremonial matcha session, where everyone got to whisk and prepare their own bowl from start to finish.

【Royal Sakura Soft Serve】
Over the years, Sakura season has become an opportunity for us to keep experimenting and to revisit a familiar motif, thinking how it can be expressed anew each year.
Royal Sakura Soft Serve began with the idea of pairing Earl Grey tea leaves with sakura. What emerged was a surprisingly balanced profile: the floral sweetness of sakura gently offset by the bold, robust depth of Earl Grey 🍂
The milk is infused with tea leaves for 48 hours to fully draw out their flavour, before being blended with sakura concentrate from Odawara, Kanagawa prefecture 🌸
Using extracted and concentrated sakura allows for a vivid floral aroma and a delicate pink hue.
A bit more nuanced, tea-led and not too overpowering - especially enjoyable as a parfait, topped with fresh berries for a layer of tartness.

【The Descent of Spring】
This year’s Sakura campaign is inspired by the contrast between 2 main elements - the ethereal softness of cherry blossom petals and the deep, robust flavour profile of Royal Earl Grey.
Rather than noise or spectacle, this season unfolds as a slower, more mindful journey into renewal, with large batches of tea leaves cold-steeped over 48 hours before being blended into soft serve.
We’re also putting the spotlight on our signature Royal Milk Tea, made with aromatic black tea from Hyogo prefecture and topped with a creamy sakura cloud.

What people say
Matchaya is a tea room that takes pride in offering the best premium ingredients from different prefectures in Japan. Their dedication to sourcing only the finest raw materials for their teas is evident in every sip. Matchaya's authentic Japanese milk tea flavors are carefully formulated with different suppliers within Japan, ensuring that each flavor goes through at least 100 taste-tests before being launched to the public for feedback.
What sets Matchaya apart from other tea rooms is their commitment to health-consciousness. They use organic-certified raw ingredients and do not use any preservatives. The sugar level in their teas is also minimal, making it a guilt-free indulgence.
Matchaya's passion for serving high-quality Japanese milk teas to the masses is truly inspiring. Their soft creams and sweets are also curated with authenticity and quality in mind, providing customers with a delightful experience.
Their story began with a trip to Japan where they learned about Chado - The Way of Tea. Their hearts were drawn towards Matcha - Shaded Green Tea, and upon returning home, they realized the lack of places introducing Matcha. This drove them back to Japan to source for various premium ingredients from different prefectures.
Overall, Matchaya offers an unforgettable experience that will leave you craving more. From their meticulous attention to detail in sourcing ingredients to their passion for serving high-quality Japanese milk teas, it's no wonder why they have become a favorite among tea lovers in Singapore.
