Premium Matcha Cafe Maiko

The Write-Up

The full story

Premium Matcha Cafe Maiko is a cute, cozy counter on Mills Ave devoted to real matcha, whisked to order. Guests call the matcha lattes some of the best in town, and the banana pudding matcha latte has become a signature, joined by matcha soft serve, ube soft serve and the Maiko Special parfait. Taiyaki warm from the griddle and Uji-Kintoki shaved ice keep it feeling like a calm little ritual in the middle of Mills 50.
