About

At Kyoto BAL’s first-floor entrance, this compact tea counter serves organic Uji matcha, hojicha and other Japanese teas, with lattes that can be made with oat milk. Seating is limited to a handful of indoor spots plus a small terrace; vegan cookies and lattes are the clearest plant-based choices, while the menu also includes dairy gelato and milk-based drinks.
