Matcha Tea Catering Paris for Standout Events
Bring a staffed bar à matcha to your Paris event with hot and iced matcha drinks, ceremonial-style service, plant-based options and event-ready presentation.
From an événement d’entreprise in La Défense to a lancement de produit in Le Marais, a private réception, showroom event or mariage, Pearl Lemon Café plans the drinks, equipment, staffing and service format around your venue and guest numbers.
Choose from traditional matcha, iced matcha, matcha lattes, signature drinks, desserts and branded service options. We help create an efficient guest experience that looks polished, serves smoothly and gives people something more memorable than another standard drinks station.

Matcha Catering Built Around Your Event
From a compact animation matcha for a private gathering to a staffed matcha station for hundreds of invités, we structure the service around venue access, attendance, menu complexity and the atmosphere you want to create.
Mobile Matcha Bar for Busy Paris Events
Give guests a dedicated drinks station where matcha is prepared and served throughout your event.
Our mobile matcha bar can be planned for corporate hospitality, conferences, salons professionnels, exhibitions, launches and receptions. We assess expected guest flow, service windows, venue access and menu size before recommending the setup.
Hot and iced drinks can be served alongside dairy and boissons végétales, helping you offer greater choice without creating an oversized menu.
For high-footfall events around Porte de Versailles or major corporate gatherings in La Défense, an organised drinks station also helps reduce congestion and gives guests a clear service point.
Best suited to: Conferences, exhibitions, offices, launches and brand events.
Ceremonial-Style Matcha Service With Theatre
Add a quieter, more considered matcha experience to receptions, VIP areas and smaller gatherings.
Matcha can be prepared using a chawan and chasen, giving guests an opportunity to see the preparation process rather than simply collecting a finished drink.
This format works particularly well for premium hospitality, wellness events, Japanese-inspired celebrations and intimate réceptions privées where presentation matters as much as speed.
For events requiring formal Japanese tea-ceremony representation, the exact format and practitioner credentials should be agreed before booking.
Best suited to: VIP hospitality, cultural events, wellness events and private receptions.
Hot Matcha Latte Bar for Year-Round Hospitality
Serve smooth matcha lattes prepared to order with dairy or plant-based milk options.
A matcha latte station is well suited to autumn and winter events, company gatherings during the Paris rentrée, indoor exhibitions and end-of-year hospitality.
The menu can remain focused for faster service or include selected flavour additions such as vanilla, strawberry or seasonal ingredients where appropriate.
Milk choices can include oat, almond or soy depending on your event requirements, making the station easier to plan for mixed dietary preferences.
Best suited to: Offices, winter events, receptions and corporate hospitality.
Iced Matcha Drinks for Spring and Summer Events
Keep summer hospitality fresh with chilled matcha drinks prepared for warm-weather gatherings.
Iced matcha works well for rooftop receptions, outdoor events, fashion activations, summer launches and events around the Fête Nationale period on 14 July, when brands and private hosts often plan seasonal celebrations.
Menus can include iced matcha latte, strawberry matcha, citrus-led matcha drinks and other event-appropriate combinations.
We plan preparation and service around the number of guests so drinks can be served efficiently during concentrated arrival or networking periods.
Best suited to: Summer parties, terraces, launches, festivals and daytime events.
Matcha Cocktails and Signature Drinks
Give evening guests a matcha option that feels more suited to a reception than a standard tea service.
Matcha can be incorporated into selected cocktails, alcohol-free drinks and signature event beverages. Its distinctive colour also works particularly well for visually led events, product launches and hospitality where drinks form part of the guest experience.
For brand events, the menu can be coordinated with campaign themes, packaging colours or presentation requirements where practical.
Alcohol-free alternatives can be served alongside cocktail options so the station remains accessible to a wider guest mix.
Best suited to: Evening events, launches, fashion hospitality and celebrations.
Matcha Desserts and Sweet Pairings
Extend the matcha theme beyond drinks with sweet items designed to accompany your beverage service.
Depending on the agreed menu, options may include matcha pastries, cakes, cookies or bite-sized desserts. These work particularly well for afternoon receptions, showrooms, mariages, client hospitality and events where guests are circulating rather than sitting for a formal meal.
Pairing a focused dessert selection with hot or iced matcha also gives organisers a compact refreshment format without commissioning a full meal service.
Best suited to: Showrooms, afternoon events, weddings and private celebrations.
Guests Remember the Details
Thoughtful drinks, professional service and smooth guest flow can make a lasting difference to corporate launches, private celebrations and Paris events.
The matcha bar completely changed the atmosphere of our Paris product showcase. Guests kept returning for the iced matcha during networking, and it became a natural meeting point throughout the evening. The team handled a very high flow of attendees without any delays, even during our peak arrival window. We would happily consider the team again for future brand activations.
We wanted something elegant but different for our wedding reception in Paris, and the matcha service was exactly that. Guests loved the variety of drinks, especially the oat milk matcha lattes and the lighter iced options during the afternoon. The staff were discreet, professional, and adapted smoothly to the flow of the day. It felt like a natural part of the celebration rather than a separate catering setup.
Le bar à matcha a apporté une vraie touche originale à notre réception d’entreprise à Paris. Les invités ont particulièrement apprécié la qualité des boissons et la rapidité du service pendant les moments de forte affluence. L’équipe a su s’adapter parfaitement à notre espace et à notre planning serré. Nous referions appel à eux sans hésiter pour un prochain événement.
