Prague is one of Europe's fastest-growing matcha cities — matcha now accounts for an estimated 20–25% of total drink sales at major café chains, driven by a young, specialty-coffee-literate customer base. Karlín (Praha 8) and Vinohrady (Praha 2) are the epicentres of the scene, though the Old Town holds two of the five best addresses. All cafés below are verified open as of April 2026.
A Korean-owned café on Benediktská street in the Old Town with a perfect 5.0 rating from over 1,300 reviews — one of the most consistently praised cafés in all of Prague. The name comes from the Korean verb 반하다 (banhada), meaning to fall in love. The matcha programme is the centrepiece of the menu, drawing a loyal crowd of regulars and visitors who return for the quality and calm atmosphere. Sunday is the one day off; all other days run to 7pm.
A dedicated matcha bar in Karlín — Prague's most design-forward neighbourhood and the hub of its specialty café scene. Atomic Matcha has built a strong following since opening, with a 4.7 rating from 275 reviews reflecting consistent quality. The Karlín location makes it a natural stop on any day exploring this part of Praha 8, with weekday hours from 9am and weekend hours from 10am through to 7pm.
Located on Opletalova near Václavské náměstí (Wenceslas Square) in Nové Město, Jun Matcha Bar is the most central option on this list for visitors staying near the main square. With 292 reviews at 4.6, it's a reliable and well-rated stop that stays open until 8pm on weekdays — later than most of Prague's dedicated matcha spots — making it a practical choice for afternoon and evening visits.
Also on Benediktská street in Staré Město — the same block as Cafe BANHADA — MY coffee is the late-evening option on this list, staying open until 9pm daily including Sundays. With a 4.8 rating from 319 reviews, it's one of the highest-rated cafés in the Old Town and serves matcha alongside a full café menu. The Benediktská cluster makes it easy to visit both BANHADA and MY coffee in one afternoon in the heart of Praha 1.
Located on Rumunská in Vinohrady — Prague's stylish residential district where café culture has deep roots — Matcha Crew is the longest-established dedicated matcha presence in this part of the city. With 454 reviews (the highest count on this list), it has earned a broad and loyal local following. Hours run Monday to Friday 10am–8pm and weekends 11am–8pm, making it the most accessible option for evening visits in Praha 2.
Tips for drinking matcha in Prague
- Cafe BANHADA is the top pick — a perfect 5.0 from 1,300+ reviews is rare anywhere in Europe. Go Tuesday to Friday for maximum opening hours; note it's closed Sundays.
- The Benediktská cluster in Staré Město has both BANHADA (#1) and MY coffee (#4) on the same street — useful for a second stop if there's a queue.
- For the Karlín and Vinohrady neighbourhoods, Atomic Matcha and Matcha Crew are the respective picks — both are neighbourhood-rooted destinations rather than tourist spots.
- Jun Matcha Bar near Wenceslas Square is the most convenient for visitors and the latest-closing dedicated matcha bar in the city centre.
