A Hidden Hole in the Wall Called Coffee ONDA
We parked up in Newmarket with no plan, just a wander. No checklist. No destination. Just walking and seeing what caught our eye. That is when we spotted this tiny hole in the wall called Coffee ONDA.
Pastel colours. Super cute. Seats literally placed in a driveway. Blink, and you might miss it. The kind of place you would walk straight past if you were not paying attention.
Strawberry Matcha Was the Only Order
My wife loves matcha. Especially strawberry matcha. So there was no debate here. One drink. Strawberry matcha. Eight dollars. One cup. I was only there for a sip.
First taste and everything changed.
Smooth. Creamy. Strawberry sweet without tasting fake or syrupy. Then the matcha hit. Soft. Gentle. No bitterness at all.
And listen. I am not a matcha person. I have tried plenty for my wife, and most of the time, I am pulling a face. This one, though? Hands down the best strawberry matcha I have ever had.
The kind I can actually drink happily.
Why Coffee ONDA Is Worth Finding
Coffee ONDA is not flashy. It is small. It is easy to miss. It feels almost accidental. But that is precisely what makes it special.
If you are in Newmarket, park up and go for a walk. Keep your eyes open. It might take a minute to spot, but once you do, it is absolutely worth it.
Now I want to know.
Where is the best strawberry matcha you have ever had anywhere in the world?
Google Reviews:
Every other matcha place i've been to in AKL (almost every one lol) is nowhere near as good. I usually just make my own matcha/strawberry matcha at home but whenever I'm out i'll always stop by & order a strawberry matcha latte (^_-) they just do it the best!!! Super recommend their cabinet food as it is always great as well~
Ever since discovering this place I have to drop by whenever I’m in Newmarket!
We ordered:
- strawberry matcha
- hojicha iced latte
