Pretty picky about matcha (I don’t like starbucks, dunkin, etc). Here are some of the better ones I would recommend in az that I have tried (still a lot of other shops I want to try though!)
Map
They just opened their 3rd location in az. I have gotten their matcha for over a year and love it. Great place to get work done.
Peixoto Coffee Roasters
Only had a few times, but from what I have had, quality matcha. They whisk it in front of you.
SAIGON COFFEE & TEA - Updated November 2025
Right on ASU campus and fairly good matcha for the price. It is a walkable place on campus so very convenient.
Premium Matcha Cafe Maiko
This is definitely more popular of a place for milk teas/boba. However, I get the matcha here and similar to cafe matcha maiko it is on ASU campus and very convenient.
The Alley Tempe
They just opened a new location in az. I love their seasonal flavor and a very fun atmosphere to get work done. This and peixoto have a great working atmosphere.
Light Heart Coffee
This place is great for more health focused foods and drinks. Slightly more on the pricey side, but worth it in my opinion.
