Matcha Haus

Matcha Haus establishes its third local footprint on the concourse level of First Canadian Place, bringing specialty green tea culture directly into the dense downtown core. Founded by Angela Yan, the brand focuses on sourcing first-harvest matcha through direct relationships with small generational farms in Nagasaki, Japan. Partnering with Japanese vegan chef Haruna Makino, the cafe emphasizes wholesome ingredients, organic cane sugar, and scratch-made vegan cold foams to elevate traditional tea preparation into modern daily routines. The concept reflects a sleek, plant-forward design philosophy tailored specifically to the fast-paced commuter rhythm of the underground PATH network.

Visitors navigating the Financial District can expect a diverse menu featuring signature drinks such as the Haus Blend matcha latte, traditional usucha, and richer koicha preparations, alongside creative seasonal additions like the banana bread matcha and pandan coconut cloud matcha. Given its strategic subterranean location inside a major office tower, the counter attracts heavy volumes of weekday professional foot traffic looking for sustainable energy and antioxidant-rich alternatives to coffee. Orders are handled efficiently for on-the-go professionals, and delivery options are available via major third-party apps for those unable to visit the downtown counter in person during peak business hours.
