The heart behind the bar

Our Story

It all started with a dream, a little risk, and a lot of love.

Brenda, founder of Matcha Mia, at a matcha tasting table in the pink cafe

Hi, I’m Brenda, the founder of Matcha Mia, and let me tell you — this business is my heart and soul. As a proud Latina with big ambitions, I wanted to create something that Houston had never seen before.

When I discovered the incredible benefits of matcha (hello, energy without the crash), I fell in love. But there was just one problem: nobody in Houston was doing matcha right. I wanted the real, vibrant green matcha that’s rich, smooth, and ceremonial-grade — and I wanted it on the go.

So, I decided to take a risk, break the mold, and create Houston’s first-ever matcha-dedicated café. With Matcha Mia, I didn’t just want to offer matcha — I wanted to make it an experience. From our bold pink walls to our family-owned values, Matcha Mia is all about bringing something fresh, fun, and vibrant to the table.

“Matcha Mia isn’t just a brand — it’s a trailblazer in Houston’s matcha scene.”

Real matcha

Ceremonial-grade, vibrant green, and never cut with fillers or artificial colors.

Family-owned

Built on hospitality, warmth, and the kind of care that feels like home.

Bold & fresh

From our pink walls to our seasonal sips, we bring something vibrant to the table.

Wellness & connection

More than caffeine — a daily ritual that helps you glow from the inside out.

As a 27-year-old entrepreneur from Mexico City, I’ve always had a vision for spotting what’s missing in the market and creating something unique. Matcha Mia is my way of blending my hospitality background (shoutout to the Hilton College at the University of Houston) with my passion for wellness and connection.

And now, with our own line of matcha powder, we’re making it even easier for you to enjoy premium matcha anytime, anywhere. Whether you’re sipping a latte at the café or whipping up your own creations at home, we’re here to elevate your daily rituals and help you glow from the inside out.

Welcome to Matcha Mia

We’re here to bring you wellness, joy, and a daily ritual that’s as bold and vibrant as you are.
