About Ksana Matcha - One City Centre

Ksana Matcha is a small matcha concept café on the 2nd floor of One City Centre (Unit R2-02) on Phloen Chit Road, near Chit Lom. The room is all white and cream, with curved walls shaped to look like a cave or Antelope Canyon, so it feels quiet and enclosed compared with the busy street below. It is compact, with fewer than ten seats.

The menu centres on Japanese matcha from Uji and Shizuoka, served as usucha, koicha or lattes, with named teas such as Coastal Breeze, Silenced Highland and Smokey Peaks. Drinks run roughly 140 to 240 baht, and traditional wagashi such as nerikiri, yokan and kingyokukan cost about 140 to 150 baht. Staff hand out cards that explain each matcha.

It suits a calm daytime date, especially for couples who like tea and design. Seats are limited and the café closes early (5:30pm on weekdays, 6:30pm at weekends), so a weekday morning or early afternoon is the easiest time to get a spot. Pair a latte with a nerikiri and take your time.

Why it works for a date

  • High-quality ceremonial matcha from Japan
  • Calm, cave-like white interior
  • Helpful cards explaining each tea
  • Lightly sweetened by default

Good to be aware of

  • Very few seats (under 10)
  • Seats are not very comfortable for lounging
  • Closes in the early evening

What to order

Coastal Breeze Latte at Ksana Matcha - One City CentreCoastal Breeze Latte ฿190-240A punchier, almost savoury matcha that reviewers single out as the standout. Served lightly sweet by default.
Silenced Highland Usucha ฿170A nuttier, rounder matcha served straight as usucha, a good pick if you want to taste the tea itself.
Nerikiri ฿140-150A traditional Edo-era bean-paste sweet that Time Out recommends pairing with the grassy matcha.
