About Nana's Green Tea Melbourne

Skip the usual Bourke Street flat white for specialized Japanese green teas and comforting diner classics. Matcha regulars treat this sleek space as mandatory. Think towering matcha shiratama parfaits layered with mochi and red bean, easily big enough to split. Earthy hojicha lattes steam beside velvety soft serve hitting quiet bitter-sweet notes. Dessert fans consistently point to the creamy cheesecakes and black sesame drinks as CBD essentials. But the savory side holds its own. The smart order starts with crisp chicken karaage, dashi-rich ochazuke, or warm curry bowls before any sweets arrive—best enjoyed at tables set to background jazz with zero weekend surcharges.

  • Green Tea & Sweets: Multi-layered matcha shiratama parfaits, creamy matcha cheesecake, and balanced hojicha lattes.
  • Savory Japanese Classics: Comforting bowls of salmon ochazuke, Japanese curry, crispy chicken karaage, and donburi.
  • Spacious & Surcharge-Free: Spacious wooden seating, easy table ordering, and zero weekend surcharges for group catchups.
