Munich has a thriving matcha scene concentrated in the university quarters of Maxvorstadt and Schwabing — UP Coffee leads on quality near LMU, and Daily Matcha operates two dedicated matcha bars in the same neighbourhoods. The Schwabing–Maxvorstadt corridor makes for a natural matcha crawl, with five verified addresses within a short cycling distance. All cafés below are confirmed open as of April 2026.
A specialty coffee and matcha bar on Adalbertstraße in Maxvorstadt, a short walk from LMU (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität) and the Englischer Garten. UP Coffee holds a 4.9 rating from 241 reviews — the highest on this list — reflecting the precision and quality of a café that has earned a dedicated following among Munich's specialty coffee community. Open Monday through Friday from 8am and Saturday from 9am, closing at 5:30pm (4:30pm on Saturdays). Closed Sundays.
The original Daily Matcha location in Munich, on Augustenstraße in Maxvorstadt near the Technische Universität. A dedicated matcha bar with a focused menu — not a general café that also serves matcha — open daily from 10am to 5pm including weekends. A 4.7 rating from 174 reviews. Its Augustenstraße address puts it in one of Munich's most walkable and café-dense streets, making it a natural first stop on a city matcha crawl.
A café-bar on Schellingstraße in the heart of Munich's university quarter, open until 10pm on Fridays and Saturdays — the latest-closing address on this list by several hours. With a 4.7 rating from 291 reviews, Toto has built a strong and varied following that spans the morning coffee crowd and evening bar visitors alike. Open from 11am on weekdays and 12pm Fridays/Saturdays. A natural choice for a late-afternoon or early-evening matcha on weekends.
In the pedestrian-zone-adjacent Altheimer Eck — a small square connecting Kaufingerstraße to the Rindermarkt in Munich's city centre — Matcha Lab is the most centrally located address on this list. A 4.5 rating from 180 reviews, open Monday through Saturday from 10:30am to 6pm. Its central position makes it the most convenient option for visitors staying in the city centre or Marienplatz area, without a long trip to the university districts.
The second Daily Matcha location in Munich, on Leopoldstraße in Schwabing — the wide boulevard running north from the university district that is one of Munich's most famous streets. With 527 reviews at 4.4, it's the most reviewed address on this list and the best option for the Schwabing corridor. Extended hours (Mon–Fri 9am–8pm, Sat–Sun 10am–8pm) make it more accessible for evening visits than the Augustenstraße branch.
