Matcha Latte in Da Nang — The Roly Poly Experience

Iced strawberry matcha latte poured over ice at Roly Poly Fresh Spring Rolls & Coffee Da Nang

In Da Nang’s vibrant café culture, matcha lattes are everywhere — but at Roly Poly Fresh Spring Rolls & Coffee Da Nang, we craft something more than just a pretty green drink. Our philosophy is about balance, freshness, and authenticity. In Japan, matcha has been part of tea ceremonies for centuries, valued for both its earthy flavor and calming energy. Today, this tradition has traveled worldwide, but not every café gives it the respect it deserves. At Roly Poly, we’re proud to whisk ceremonial-grade leaves, measured with care, so every sip reflects both heritage and modern coastal living.

We designed our matcha program to fit Da Nang’s pace: breezy afternoons, beachside mornings, and the city’s blend of locals, travelers, and remote workers. Whether you’re grabbing a light pick-me-up before heading to My Khe Beach or pairing it with our spring rolls for lunch, our lattes are meant to refresh without weighing you down.

What Makes Our Matcha Different

We source first-harvest, ceremonial-grade matcha directly from Shizuoka, Japan. Unlike culinary-grade powders used in baking or desserts, ceremonial matcha is shade-grown, hand-picked, and stone-ground to a delicate texture. The result? A natural sweetness, vivid green color, and smooth umami without the harsh bitterness some people associate with green tea. In Vietnam’s tropical climate, freshness matters: that’s why we store our tins airtight, light-proof, and cool, ensuring every serving tastes like it was whisked in a Japanese tea room.

Transparency is also part of the experience. We know where our leaves come from, which farms grow them, and when they’re harvested. This dedication ensures every drink served in An Thuong carries the quality of centuries-old Japanese farming traditions — yet feels perfectly at home in a seaside Vietnamese café.

Our Three Signature Matcha Lattes

Classic Matcha Latte

Our most popular choice: smooth, creamy, lightly sweet, and endlessly refreshing. Whisked with a touch of vanilla bean sauce, poured over ice, and finished with Oatside oat milk. The aroma is grassy and clean, while the finish is bright and crisp — perfect for mornings or a post-beach reset.

Salted Caramel Matcha Latte

Comfort in a glass. The salted caramel brings out matcha’s savory depth, creating a flavor both indulgent and balanced. Oat milk keeps it plush without being heavy. Ideal for cozy afternoons, this latte is the café’s equivalent of a light dessert — but still vegan and refreshing.

Strawberry Matcha Latte

Playful and layered. A dairy-free strawberry cream floats above vivid iced matcha, blending earthy and fruity in every sip. The aroma is sweet, the flavor uplifting, and the finish smooth. It’s the Instagram favorite — but more importantly, it’s the perfect antidote to Da Nang’s humid afternoons.

How We Whisk (So It Tastes Better)

  • Water first, not milk: blooming matcha with cool water avoids clumps and preserves brightness.
  • Proper whisking: our zig-zag motion creates micro-foam, giving creaminess without excess sugar.
  • Ice-first build: layering over ice keeps aroma intact and flavor balanced to the last sip.

Why Oat Milk?

Oat milk lets the tea lead. Neutral, silky, and plant-based, it matches perfectly with matcha’s grassy freshness. Unlike dairy, it won’t overpower delicate flavors or leave a heavy aftertaste. Plus, it makes all our lattes fully vegan by default, fitting seamlessly with our fresh, health-focused menu.

Health Benefits of Matcha

Beyond taste, matcha is a superfood. Packed with antioxidants, it’s known for supporting metabolism, skin health, and immunity. Thanks to L-theanine, it delivers calm focus and steady energy without the jitters of coffee. Many of our guests love switching between matcha and our salted coffee, depending on whether they want alertness or relaxation.

Pair that with oat milk — rich in fiber and naturally cholesterol-free — and you’ve got a drink that feels indulgent yet nourishing. When combined with our fresh rolls, you get a meal that fuels both body and mind, keeping you light on your feet for exploring Da Nang’s beaches and streets.

Perfect Pairings with Fresh Spring Rolls

  • Classic Matcha Latte → Garlic Prawn; Poached Chicken & Avocado. Crisp proteins with bright matcha amplify each other’s freshness.
  • Salted Caramel Matcha Latte → Smoked Goose; Soy-Glazed Pork Belly. Sweet-savory synergy that feels indulgent yet balanced.
  • Strawberry Matcha Latte → Tofu, Mushroom & Avocado; Chicken Satay. Fruity sweetness lifts earthy and herb-forward rolls.

And don’t forget dipping sauces — peanut adds richness to the Classic, sesame deepens the Caramel pairing, while our house chili-lime brightens the Strawberry combination.

Matcha in Vietnam’s Café Culture

Vietnamese café culture is evolving fast. While phin coffee remains iconic, younger crowds and expats are embracing matcha for its wellness benefits and photogenic appeal. In An Thuong, where digital nomads, surfers, and foodies cross paths, matcha lattes represent more than a drink — they’re a lifestyle choice. At Roly Poly, we see our café as a hub where traditions meet trends, offering both authentic flavors and a welcoming community space.

When to Visit & How to Order

We’re open Monday to Saturday, 10:00–20:00 (closed Sunday). Mornings are calm, afternoons bring beachgoers, and evenings fill with a friendly international crowd. For takeaway, our layered builds stay balanced even after a stroll down to the ocean — perfect for sipping under palm trees. Prefer delivery? Order us on Grab and enjoy ceremonial-grade matcha from the comfort of your home or hotel.

Bottom Line

Great matcha is about clarity: bright color, smooth texture, and flavors that refresh rather than overwhelm. At Roly Poly, we whisk to order, use ceremonial-grade powder, and pair drinks with fresh rolls that reflect Da Nang’s easygoing pace. Whether you’re vegan, health-conscious, or simply chasing a delicious drink, our lattes are made for you. Visit us in An Thuong, sip by the beach, or order online — either way, you’re tasting matcha done right.
