Plan your visitAbout Naau Cafe
Naau Cafe serves up rich, umami-packed matcha and roasted hojicha from a no-frills takeaway window on Russell Street. City regulars drop by for fast morning pickups and cold, layered drinks—especially the house-made raspberry matcha latte, pairing grassy tea notes with a tart berry puree. For a richer sip, velvety peanut butter cream or pistachio cream caps off iced hojicha, cut cleanly with oat or soy milk.
- Signature Nut Creams: Matcha and roasted hojicha lattes topped with thick, sweet-and-salty peanut butter or pistachio cream layers.
- House Raspberry Puree: Concentrated iced matcha poured over fresh in-house berry puree for a balanced, tangy profile.
- Speedy Window Service: A compact Russell Street hole-in-the-wall built for swift counter ordering and window collection.

Before you head over
Essential guidance for ordering and visiting Naau Cafe
Plan for takeaway only
Plan on grabbing your drink to go; the shop is set up for quick takeaway with no indoor dining area and only three waiting stools.
Arrive early before stock runs out
Popular options like the iced matcha can sell out early in the afternoon, so visit well before 1:00 PM to ensure full menu availability.
Stir layered fruit drinks before drinking
Give drinks with house raspberry puree a good stir before sipping to balance the sweetness, or request less raspberry if you prefer a less sweet profile.
