M2 Bar

What is M2 Bar? Occupying the corner of Church and Carlton inside the Matcha Matcha footprint at 403 Church Street, M2 Bar operates as an intimate evening counter-concept in the Church-Yonge Corridor. By day the room runs on ceremonial-grade green tea, but once night falls, the lights drop and the space transforms into a sleek, design-forward cocktail lounge anchored by low-slung seating, counter perches, and an interactive digital message board that guests contribute to throughout the night.

M2 Bar Menu & What to Order The drinks program leans heavily into culinary mixology and Japanese-inspired flavor profiles, moving well beyond standard highballs. Standouts include the savory, spirit-forward Wasabi Bento, the effervescent Tomato Champagne, and drinks inspired by Hong Kong bakery staples like the Pineapple Bun cocktail. Pair your pours with late-night bakery treats from the daytime counter, including the strawberry matcha tiramisu, matcha roll cake, or a flakey pistachio croissant roll.

Know Before You Go Seating is relatively tight and operates primarily on a walk-in basis, making late weekend nights particularly lively and prone to brief door queues. Streetcar access is painless via the 506 Carlton line right outside the door, or a quick four-minute walk east from College Station. Service kicks off late in the evening and runs until 2:00 a.m. from Thursday through Saturday.
