In recent years, Cairo has witnessed a delicious shift in its café culture, with matcha, once a niche trend, now blooming into a vibrant and flavourful movement. No longer limited to the traditional grassy green latte, matcha in Cairo is now swirled with berries, lavender, coconut, and even olive oil. From trendy brunch cafés to minimalist coffee bars, here are the top five spots in Cairo serving flavoured matcha drinks that blend tradition with imagination.

With its sleek branding and boundary-pushing menu, Koffee Kulture is a hotspot for flavoured matcha variations. Their Strawberry Matcha Latte and Blueberry Matcha are local favourites, while the Dirty Matcha, a bold blend of espresso and matcha, is a must-try for those who want their green tea with a caffeine punch.
Brown Nose Coffee

Although not as experimental as some others, Brown Nose Coffee has perfected the art of smooth, mellow matcha. Their Coconut Matcha Latte is rich and creamy, and their Vanilla Matcha offers a gently sweet entry point for matcha beginners. While their Instagram presence is limited, they’re often recommended in Cairo’s top matcha guides.
Nanas

If you’re looking for something genuinely different, Nanas should be your next stop. Known for its experimental menu, Nanas has introduced Cairo to Olive Oil Matcha, seasonal “Earth Day” blends, and more daring interpretations of the classic drink. You’ll often spot them featured in local foodie reels from their branch in Majarrah Mall.

For those who appreciate the earthy essence of pure matcha, Seven Fortunes is a sanctuary. Their drinks emphasise smooth textures and refined flavour, with occasional mild infusions that enhance rather than overpower the base. No gimmicks; just great matcha done right.
