Matcha Tea Catering in Zurich: Get Memorable Experiences
You train. But not at the level you expect from yourself.
Bring a staffed matcha bar directly to your Zürich venue with hot and iced drinks prepared for corporate events, Hochzeiten, exhibitions, private celebrations and branded activations.
Pearl Lemon Café handles menu planning, matcha preparation, equipment, service and clean-up, giving organisers one less part of the Veranstaltung to manage. From a Firmenanlass in Zürich West to an Apéro in Enge or a reception near Bahnhofstrasse, the service is planned around your Gäste, venue and schedule.
- 6 Event Service Formats
- 5 Planning Stages Included
- 2 Matcha Temperatures Served
- 1 Fully Managed Station
Matcha Catering Built Around Your Event
From a compact office Apéro to a high-footfall Messe, our matcha catering can be configured around guest numbers, service periods, branding requirements and venue access.
Corporate Matcha Bars That Keep Breaks Moving
Give teams, clients and delegates something different from another standard coffee station.
We serve hot and iced matcha drinks from a staffed bar suited to office events, conferences, networking sessions, wellness days and company celebrations. Menus can include traditional matcha, matcha lattes, iced drinks and plant-based milk options.
For busy Firmenanlass schedules, the service plan can be built around defined refreshment windows so guests are served without disrupting presentations, meetings or networking.
Best suited to:
- Corporate receptions
- Conference breaks
- Team events
- Wellness days
- Office celebrations
- Weihnachtsfeier events
Wedding Matcha Bars Guests Will Talk About
Add a visually distinctive drinks station to your Hochzeit without making the catering plan more complicated.
Our team can serve hot and iced matcha during receptions, afternoon service, dessert periods or evening celebrations. Drink menus can be kept simple for faster service or widened to include flavoured lattes, dairy-free alternatives and matcha desserts.
Couples can also request personalised menu wording and event styling to suit the wider reception.
Ideal for:
- Wedding receptions
- Engagement parties
- Bridal events
- Afternoon celebrations
- Dessert service
- Summer weddings around Zürichsee
Mobile Matcha Stations for High-Footfall Events
Turn matcha preparation into part of the guest experience.
A mobile station puts preparation where attendees can see it, making the drinks bar useful for exhibitions, launches, pop-ups and public-facing Veranstaltungen. Service can be organised around expected guest flow, available floor space and the time guests are likely to arrive.
For Messe and exhibition settings in areas such as Oerlikon, the station can be planned to minimise unnecessary queueing while keeping preparation visible.
Service can include:
- Matcha equipment
- Staffed preparation
- Hot drinks
- Iced drinks
- Cups and serviceware
- Setup and breakdown
Brand Activations With Matcha Built Into the Campaign
Use the drinks station as part of the event rather than placing an anonymous refreshment table in the corner.
Corporate clients can request branded menu cards, campaign-specific drink names, branded cups where available and matcha kits for selected event formats.
This works particularly well for product launches, media events, exhibitions and customer activations where visual presentation matters as much as the drink itself.
Possible additions:
- Branded menu boards
- Company cup branding
- Campaign drink names
- Matcha sampling
- Takeaway kits
- Event-specific presentation
Interactive Matcha Workshops for Smaller Groups
Give guests a reason to participate instead of simply collecting a drink.
Workshop-style sessions can introduce the preparation of matcha, whisking technique, serving methods and the role of matcha within Japanese tea culture.
They work well for staff events, wellness sessions, private groups and smaller corporate gatherings where interaction matters more than serving maximum volume.
Workshop elements may include:
- Matcha preparation
- Whisking demonstration
- Tasting
- Equipment introduction
- Group participation
- Q&A
Matcha Desserts and Pairings That Extend the Menu
Matcha does not need to stop at the drinks station.
Add matcha-led desserts or complementary sweet items where suitable for the event format. They can support afternoon events, weddings, private celebrations and longer corporate programmes where guests need more than drinks.
Pairing the drinks with desserts also creates a more complete offering for Sommerfest, Apéro and reception-style occasions.
Menu possibilities can include:
- Matcha cakes
- Matcha pastries
- Matcha cookies
- Matcha desserts
- Small sweet bites
- Dairy-free options where available
The Kind of Feedback Event Organisers Should See
The matcha bar gave our afternoon programme a much stronger refreshment option than the standard drinks table. The service format worked well around scheduled breaks, and guests particularly liked having both iced and hot choices. Setup and service were easy for our event team to coordinate. We would use the format again for a future Firmenanlass.
We wanted something a little different for our reception and the matcha station fitted the atmosphere very well. Guests could choose their drinks without the menu becoming confusing, and the presentation looked excellent throughout the event. The plant-based options were particularly useful for our group. Service remained organised from setup through to the end.
Der Matcha-Stand war eine tolle Ergänzung für unseren Firmenanlass in Zürich. Die Gäste konnten zwischen warmen und kalten Getränken wählen, und der Ablauf vor Ort war sehr gut organisiert. Besonders gefallen hat uns die klare Abstimmung vor der Veranstaltung. Wir würden den Service für einen weiteren Anlass wieder einplanen.

Bundesfeier on 1 August
Swiss National Day takes place on 1 August, with celebrations across Switzerland, making it a natural date for private gatherings, workplace events and summer hospitality.
Sechseläuten
Zürich’s spring festival creates another seasonal reason for companies, hospitality teams and private hosts to arrange an Apéro or reception.
Weihnachtsfeier Season
November and December bring office parties, end-of-year receptions and client hospitality where warm matcha drinks can sit alongside more familiar festive refreshments.
Sommerfest Season
Warm-weather company events and private celebrations are a natural fit for iced matcha, fruit-led variations and lighter drink menus.
