Why go
Coffee, matcha and tea get equal billing
Ikinari Coffee names three drinks in the same breath: coffee, matcha and tea, with sweets after them. That ordering is the menu in miniature and it is worth taking literally, because matcha is not a concession here. It is one of the three things the café is for. No machine, grinder or roasting partner is put forward as the story, so the drinks are left to stand on their own.
A small room with a daytime rhythm
The café is small and easy to be in, an Amsterdam neighborhood coffee spot rather than a destination, and its rhythm is daytime only. It is calm in a way that suits a quick cup and a short sit better than an afternoon of work, and the service runs over the counter rather than at the table. Modern, unfussy, and mostly used by people who live nearby.
Order the matcha
Start with matcha if that is what drew you in, then use the same three categories to choose what follows: coffee, tea, or something sweet alongside. There are no single origins, house blends or ceremonial grades advertised, so the reliable move is to stay close to what the café actually names rather than to ask for a preparation it has not claimed.

Frequently asked questions
What should you order at Ikinari Coffee?
Matcha, coffee or tea, in whichever order suits you. The café gives all three equal weight rather than treating coffee as the main event, and sweets sit behind them for anyone who wants food with the drink. Nothing more specific is advertised, so ordering by category rather than by preparation is the dependable approach.
