Overview
Tucked discreetly on Albion Street in Brunswick, Osoi Café is a tranquil, Japanese-inspired space that champions slow sips and quiet refinement. Sharing its address with the acclaimed Osoi restaurant, this standalone café concept focuses on the art of tea—particularly matcha—and offers a curated experience that feels both sophisticated and deeply calming.
The drinks menu is led by high-quality Japanese teas, including ceremonial-grade matcha, hojicha (roasted green tea), and genmaicha (green tea with toasted rice). Matcha is whisked with care and served traditionally, or blended into lattes with oat or dairy milk. Seasonal specials often feature refreshing combinations like yuzu matcha spritzes or iced hojicha with lemon.
Beyond tea, Osoi Café also offers elegant house-made treats such as matcha cheesecake, black sesame cookies, and mochi-inspired bites. Each item is designed to complement the drink menu, with a restrained sweetness and focus on texture and balance.
The interior mirrors Japanese aesthetics—light timber, neutral tones, and natural light create a space that feels intentionally quiet and reflective. Whether you’re meeting a friend, enjoying a solo moment, or working on the go, the ambience encourages pause and presence.
Osoi Café is a standout for matcha and tea lovers, bringing refined Japanese café culture to Brunswick in a way that feels authentic, modern, and meditative.
