Check out The Matcha Tokyo's new branch at Gateway Mall 2, Quezon City:

Roughly a year since Matcha Tokyo made its debut at MITSUKOSHI BGC, the store has finally opened its second Philippines branch in the north of Metro Manila, specifically at Gateway Mall 2 in Quezon City. It was announced on their Instagram back in mid-December and it officially opens today, January 3.

Open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day, the new branch at Gateway Mall 2 is the bigger branch compared to that in MITSUKOSHI, with the former having a seating capacity of 36. Aside from size, the layout of the new branch is quite different as it leans toward the look of a modern Japanese café. There are cushioned stair seats and coffee tables in one corner, while the other section of the store has regular tables and chairs.

The Matcha Tokyo's menu stays the same at the new branch. You can get your fix of earthy, umami green tea with classic drinks like the Japan Premium Matcha drink (P190/hot or iced) and Matcha Latte (starts at P220/hot, P250/iced), or opt for something more on the creative side like the Philippine-exclusive Matcha Ube Latte (starts at P260). Same with the first branch, the new store also offers options for matcha-with-matcha pairings with matcha eats such as the Matcha and Black Sesame Cookie.
