Starbucks Tea & Café – A Unique Tea Experience in Japan

When you think of Starbucks, coffee immediately comes to mind. But in Japan, there is something different waiting for you – Starbucks Tea & Café, a special concept store that focuses entirely on tea.

What Makes Starbucks Tea & Café Different?

Unlike regular Starbucks locations that highlight coffee, Starbucks Tea & Café is dedicated to TEAVANA™, Starbucks’ premium tea brand.
The concept is “彩りあふれる、心あたたまるティーのひとときを” – “a colorful, heartwarming tea moment.”

Here, you can enjoy:

A wide variety of tea-based beverages made with carefully selected tea leaves and botanical ingredients.
A refined and stylish atmosphere, more like a modern tea house.
Exclusive drinks not found at regular Starbucks stores, making it a must-visit for tea lovers traveling in Japan.

The first location opened in Roppongi Hills, Tokyo, in July 2020, and more have since spread nationwide.

Recommended Drinks

Here are some must-try menu items:

🍓 Strawberry & Passion Tea Frappuccino – Fruity, colorful, and perfect for Instagram.
🍵 Matcha x Matcha Latte – Rich and deep Japanese green tea latte.
🌿 Hojicha Latte – A roasted Japanese tea latte with nutty aroma.
🍑 Peach Green Tea – Refreshing and light, perfect for summer.
🍹 Tea Cream Soda – A playful sparkling tea topped with cream.

💡 Tip: Seasonal teas are often available, so each visit offers something new!
