About Matcha Cafe Maiko

Matcha Cafe Maiko is a Japanese cafe with a unique offering. The cafe is small, with outside TVs displaying menus for customers waiting in line. The ice cream is a highlight, especially the matcha flavor, which is praised for its high quality and concentrated taste. The soft-serve options are popular, with some customers enjoying the matcha soft serve and others trying the vanilla or hojicha soft serve next time. The Maiko special, a parfait of matcha soft serve on top of azuki beans, corn flakes, aiyu jelly, green tea chiffon cake, and mochi, combines various textures and flavors. The matcha is not too sweet and offers a burst of flavor, with contrasting textures from the corn flakes and chewy mochi balls. Although there is no seating inside, benches are available outside on nice days. Customers note the storefront is cute, and the generous servings make the prices feel justified despite being considered pricey by some. The staff is quick, and many visitors plan to return for the soft serve treats. Recent reviews confirm the matcha is prepared properly, whisked fresh to order, just like in Japan, providing a smooth, vibrant, and full-bodied flavor that genuine matcha lovers appreciate. Visitors also mention that the place can get crowded, especially during busy hours, but the quality and authentic taste make it worth the wait.

Loved my Matcha Float it was DELICIOUS
Tried the strawberry matcha latte at Matcha Cafe Maiko in NYC and absolutely loved it! 🍓🍵💚 The combination of sweet, fruity strawberry with the rich, earthy matcha was so refreshing and balanced. The drink was creamy, flavorful, and not overly sweet.

Such a cute spot for matcha lovers, and the strawberry matcha latte is definitely worth trying. Would happily come back for another one! ✨
Love this place! Great mango sticky sweets & love the matcha. Always come back!
