They basically do it for the gram’ …

​Founded by Bianca Pearson, Matcha Cita was born out of Pearson’s love of matcha and interior design. Serving as Director of Sales and Marketing for over a decade at trendy Chicago hotspots, Pearson launched “Pop and Props” in 2019, a boutique balloon installation and event planning company. “When I realized there was an opportunity to bring a trendy, fully matcha-focused café to Chicago, I began conceptualizing Matcha Cita.”

The space, designed by East Interiors, a colorful 1600 square foot café is retro and geometric in design with tropical vibes. The photo-worthy space is bold and bright! Matcha Cita offers seating for 20 guests in plush light pink and matcha green booths: a perfect coworking space for patrons looking for a work-from-home alternative.

Our menu features specialty matcha drinks, smoothies, fresh baked pastries and more. Complementing the bright and colorful space, Matcha Cita’s menu items are just as playful, offering an overall Instagram-able experience. We welcome all to #SpillTheTea with us at 1017. West Lake Street.
