Google reviewers frequently praise Junbi Matcha & Tea for its fast service, friendly staff, and efficient ordering system, noting that the mobile matcha bar is well-suited for corporate events. The cafe is described as a compact, clean location with limited indoor seating, relying primarily on outdoor tables for customers who wish to stay. While many patrons recommend the matcha lattes and boba, a recurring criticism among lower-rated reviews is that the matcha can taste diluted, chalky, or lacking in depth compared to its ceremonial grade pricing.

We used Junbi's mobile matcha bar service for an event and they were the best! Yummy, matcha, amazing service, and friendly staff. Highly recommend!
Thanks so much Reena! Appreciate you having us and so happy that your team enjoyed our mobile matcha bar service :)
We hosted Junbi's mobile matcha bar at our Twitch SF office for an organizational onsite, and it was a total hit! Nikki was such a lovely server: friendly, fast, and happy to chat about the drinks with our staff whenever anyone had questions. Our teams loved both the matcha and the hojicha, and the stickers were a fun bonus that people are still showing off. Brian and Liz made booking and planning easy from start to finish. If you're coordinating a corporate event or an onsite treat for your team, I can't recommend Junbi enough. We'll definitely be having them back (again AND again)!
Thanks so much for having us Meg! We had a great time bringing our mobile matcha bar to Twitch :)
I went to jumbi to buy drinks . Ordering was easy cause the computers are at the entrance . After ordering the drinks came out fast. The service was also really friendly .I loved the color of the dragon fruit with chia seeds . The place was clean . Onigiri was sold out by the time we came so maybe I will try it next time when I come earlier.
Nice salt bread with w/ gochujang butter 😋
unassuming spot, but sooo good. the brown sugar matcha latte was delicious. definitely recommend for matcha in union square, especially compared to other more “instagramable” cafes with awful drinks and higher prices nearby
This place is okay. I got the strawberry milk with almond jelly. The strawberries were the perfect amount of sweet, and the almond jelly was good, but only almost fresh tasting. It’s just a drink so I expect a 5/5 experience but they couldn’t even make the drink an experience to remember. The only good thing is the ingredients were sort of fresh. Seemed like the workers deliberately tried to spoil my food. Disappointed they messed up my drink.
Thanks for the review A C. We’re really glad you enjoyed the strawberry milk with almond jelly - it sounds like you picked a great combo. Thanks for sharing the helpful tip about ordering online. Hope to see you again soon!
Great service and drinks! Thank you to the SF team and the shop for hosting a BTS event for RM’s SFMOMA exhibition.
