The 7 brands in Tokyo are a mixed group. Ippodo, Nakamura Tokichi and Gion Tsujiri are Kyoto tea houses with branches in the capital. Nanaya is run by Marushichi Seicha, a tea company from Shizuoka. Jugetsudo is run by Maruyama Nori and has its main store in Tsukiji. THE MATCHA TOKYO runs drink cafes, and all 6 of the cafes in our count belong to it.
The guide below matches four common spots to the nearest shop in our list.
Near Tokyo Station, go to Ippodo in the Shin-Marunouchi Building. In Ginza, go to Nakamura Tokichi in GINZA SIX. Around Omotesando, walk to Ippodo Aoyama. At Tokyo Skytree, Gion Tsujiri in Solamachi stays open until 22:00.
Ginza, Tsukiji, Tokyo Station and Azabudai
Five of the 15 shops are in central Tokyo. Ginza and Tsukiji have 3, and the Tokyo Station and Azabudai area has 2. The chart below counts the shops in each of the 5 areas this guide uses.
| Item | Value | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Aoyama, Omotesando, Harajuku | 4 shops | |
| Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ebisu | 4 shops | and Sendagaya |
| Ginza and Tsukiji | 3 shops | |
| Tokyo Station, Azabudai | 2 shops | |

Nakamura Tokichi Ginza is on the 4th floor of GINZA SIX, in Ginza 6-chome. The tea counter and the cafe both open 10:30 to 20:30, and the cafe’s last order is 19:30. The cafe takes no reservations. The shop closes when GINZA SIX closes.
The Nakamura Tokichi official store list also has a branch at Azabudai Hills. It is in Garden Plaza B, basement 1, and opens 10:00 to 20:00. Walk about 1 min from Kamiyacho Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line. This branch is a shop with takeaway, without a sit-down cafe.
On that store list, the tea counter hours appear under 銘茶売場 (meicha uriba, “tea sales counter”). The cafe hours appear under カフェ (kafe). Look for the first word if you only want to buy tea to take home. Our Nakamura Tokichi page lists 12 matcha from 1,980 yen for 30 g, with tax.
Ippodo Shin-Marunouchi Building is the closest shop to Tokyo Station. It sits in basement 1 of the Shin-Marunouchi Building. The Ippodo Tea Shin-Marunouchi Building store page gives a 2 min walk from the Marunouchi North exit, through an underground passage. Otemachi Station on the Toei Mita Line connects to the building directly.
The shop opens 11:00 to 21:00, and 11:00 to 20:00 on Sundays and holidays. It opens every day except 1 January. Takeaway tea stops earlier: last order is 19:00, or 18:00 on Sundays and holidays. A takeaway thin matcha (usucha) costs 972 yen, a thick matcha (koicha) 1,620 yen, and a matcha latte 1,080 yen.
The shop takes cash, credit cards, transport IC cards and phone payments. Our Ippodo Tea page lists 11 matcha from 864 yen for 20 g. If you fly into Haneda and want to start here, our Haneda Airport to Tokyo Station guide compares the trains and buses.

Jugetsudo has the other two shops in this part of town. Its main store is in Tsukiji, and a second shop is in the Ginza Kabukiza building. Our list has 12 Jugetsudo matcha from 1,060 yen for 40 g, at a median of 195 yen per gram. Jugetsudo shows each price with tax next to the base price. Their official pages do not list hours, so our list has only the names of these two shops.
Aoyama, Omotesando and Harajuku
This area has 4 of the 15: two tea house shops and two cafes. Ippodo Aoyama opened on 29 August 2025 on the 2nd floor of a building on the road toward the Nezu Museum.
The Ippodo Tea Aoyama store page gives an 8 min walk from exit A5 of Omotesando Station. Exits B4 and B3 take 10 min. The Ginza, Hanzomon and Chiyoda lines all stop at Omotesando. The shop and the tea room open 10:00 to 18:00, and the tea room’s last order is 17:30.
Ippodo Aoyama closes on Mondays. The tea room has 21 seats and takes reservations through an outside booking site. The shop does not take cash, so pay by credit card, transport IC card or phone. A takeaway matcha costs 972 yen and a matcha latte 1,080 yen. Ippodo also runs a short matcha whisking workshop here, booked through the same tea room reservation.
Nanaya Aoyama is the second tea house shop in the area. Nanaya belongs to Marushichi Seicha, which also has shops in Fujieda, Shizuoka, Makinohara and Kyoto Sanjo. Our list has 8 Nanaya teas from 540 yen, at a median of 65 yen per gram. That is the lowest median of the 7 brands with a Tokyo shop. Nanaya shows prices before tax, with the price with tax in brackets.
THE MATCHA TOKYO has two cafes here. The THE MATCHA TOKYO official cafe list gives the Harajuku cafe 9:30 to 18:45, with 30 seats. The Omotesando cafe opens 11:00 to 19:00, with last order at 18:50 and 25 seats. Both offer takeaway, and both are cashless only. Our THE MATCHA TOKYO page lists 4 matcha from 3,200 yen for 20 g, with the price as the shop shows it.

| THE MATCHA TOKYO Omotesando (cafe) | Jingumae 5-11-13 | 11:00–19:00 (last order 18:50) |
The 15 places split into two kinds of stop. Tea house shops sell tea to take home, and some add a tea room. THE MATCHA TOKYO cafes serve matcha drinks to have there or carry away. The picture below sets the two side by side.
Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ebisu and Sendagaya
The west side of central Tokyo has 4 of the 15. Three are THE MATCHA TOKYO cafes in shopping buildings, and one is a Morihan tea shop in Sendagaya.
For matcha in Shibuya, go to THE MATCHA TOKYO Shibuya Miyashita Park at Jingumae 6-20-10. It opens 11:00 to 21:00, with 23 seats and takeaway. It is one of the 5 places in our count that stay open until 21:00 or later.
For matcha in Shinjuku, go to THE MATCHA TOKYO NEWoMan Shinjuku at Shinjuku 4-1-6. It opens 8:00 to 21:00, and closes at 20:30 on Sundays and holidays. That 8:00 start is the earliest of the 12 places in our count with opening hours. The cafe has only 6 seats and takeaway.
THE MATCHA TOKYO atre Ebisu is on the 3rd floor of the atre Ebisu main building. It opens 10:00 to 20:00 and has 7 seats. It is the newest of the cafes on the brand’s list, which marks it NEW.
Morihan Sendagaya works on a different schedule. The Morihan official shop page gives 10:00 to 17:00, with shorter hours on some days. It closes on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, though it opens on a few of those days each year. Walk about 3 min from Sendagaya Station on the JR Chuo-Sobu Line. From Kita-sando Station on the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line, the walk is about 5 min.

Coming from Haneda, our Haneda Airport to Shinjuku guide and Haneda Airport to Shibuya guide list the trains and buses to each area.
Oshiage: Tokyo Skytree Town
Tokyo Skytree Town has 2 of the 15, and both stay open until 22:00. Oshiage Station connects directly to the complex. The Tobu Skytree Line, the Hanzomon Line and the Toei Asakusa Line all stop there.
Gion Tsujiri is on the 6th floor of Tokyo Solamachi, the shopping complex at the base of the tower. The Gion Tsujiri Tokyo Skytree Town Solamachi store page gives 11:00 to 22:00, with last order at 21:00. It closes on irregular days, and the page warns that hours can change without notice. It takes cash and credit cards, and there is paid parking.
Our Gion Tsujiri page lists 7 teas from 1,296 yen for 40 g, at a median of 100.5 yen per gram. Gion Tsujiri marks most prices as including tax. The brand list also names a Saryo Tsujiri cafe at Daimaru Tokyo, which sits outside the 15 in our count.
THE MATCHA TOKYO Tokyo Skytree Town is on the 1st floor of Solamachi. It opens 9:00 to 22:00, with last order at 21:30. With 40 seats, it is the largest of the 6 cafes, and it also does takeaway.

Open late: matcha shops until 21:00 or later
Five of the 15 close at 21:00 or later. The two at Tokyo Skytree Town go furthest, until 22:00. The table below lists all 5 with their areas and hours.
| Shop | Area | Hours |

Two of the 5 close earlier at weekends. Ippodo Shin-Marunouchi Building closes at 20:00 on Sundays and holidays. THE MATCHA TOKYO NEWoMan Shinjuku closes at 20:30 on those days. On a Sunday evening, head to Oshiage or Shibuya instead.
Last orders come before closing time. Gion Tsujiri Solamachi takes its last order at 21:00, and THE MATCHA TOKYO Tokyo Skytree Town at 21:30. Ippodo Shin-Marunouchi stops takeaway tea at 19:00, though the shop stays open to sell tea until 21:00.
The picture below sums up the late options. Five places stay open to 21:00 or later, and two of them stay open until 22:00.
At the other end, Morihan Sendagaya closes at 17:00, the earliest of the 12 with hours. Ippodo Aoyama closes at 18:00. We checked every time in this guide on 17 and 18 October 2026, so look at the shop’s own page on the day you go.
Are matcha prices in Tokyo different from Kyoto?
We can compare only the brands’ online prices. The 7 brands with a shop in Tokyo list 62 matcha on their official online shops, at a median of 126.8 yen per gram. The 6 brands with a shop in Kyoto city list 51 matcha, at a median of 118.8 yen per gram.
Four brands have shops in both cities: Gion Tsujiri, Ippodo, Nakamura Tokichi and Nanaya. These figures come from the brands’ online prices. We did not compare shop-counter prices, so check the price tag in the shop.
The median price per gram changes a lot from brand to brand. The table below lists the 7 brands with a Tokyo shop, using the figures in our database.
| Brand | Median per gram | Lowest price in our list |
|---|---|---|
| Nanaya | 65 yen | 540 yen |
| Gion Tsujiri | 100.5 yen | 1,296 yen for 40 g |
| Morihan | 111.6 yen | 864 yen for 20 g |
| Ippodo | 124.2 yen | 864 yen for 20 g |
| Nakamura Tokichi | 185.3 yen | 1,980 yen for 30 g |
| Jugetsudo | 195 yen | 1,060 yen for 40 g |
| THE MATCHA TOKYO | 200 yen | 3,200 yen for 20 g |
Six of the 7 brands show prices with tax, in different ways. THE MATCHA TOKYO does not say whether its prices include tax, so we show its prices as listed. At Ippodo Shin-Marunouchi, takeaway prices include tax, and the page notes 10% tax if you drink in.
Prices also moved this autumn. Ippodo set new matcha prices from 1 October 2026, keeping the 20 g size the same. Nakamura Tokichi raised some prices for orders from 1 September 2026. Our matcha price comparison covers 124 matcha at 15 brands, with a 20 g tin from 864 to 21,600 yen.
Buying online works differently from buying in the shop. Since a notice of 1 August 2025, Ippodo limits how much matcha it sells to each customer, without giving a number. Ippodo has a Global Online Shop that ships overseas. Jugetsudo ships overseas only to registered customers. The matcha shops database lists each brand’s order limits.
