About Matcha & Chai
Matcha & Chai is planned as a neighbourhood place where the cup is only the beginning. Matcha, chai, coffee and food make room for an ordinary morning, a shared table or an afternoon that does not need rushing.
The autumn 2027 opening in Campo de Ourique, Lisbon brings a café together with lounge and work space, movement and recovery. Small gatherings and local collaborations belong in the same vision: a place neighbours can make part of their lives.
- Tea and food
- Matcha, chai, coffee and considered food at the heart of the planned café.
- Shared space
- Tables for company, a lounge and space to work, with room for movement and recovery at the planned café.
- Neighbourhood gatherings
- Local events and collaborations with creatives, practitioners and neighbours for the autumn 2027 opening.
The vision
