A new matcha and tea café, Unique Green Tea, has opened in Downtown Bellevue, introducing AI-powered beverage preparation to the local tea scene. The café is located at 308 105th Avenue Northeast and marks the brand’s first location in Washington state.
Unique Green Tea is currently in a soft opening period through January 2, with its grand opening scheduled for January 3.
The location was previously occupied by Chicha San Chen, which has since moved to Bellevue Square. Prior to that, the space housed Aqua S., a premium soft serve shop.
Founded in 2024 by Taiwan’s beverage group Sharetea, Unique Green Tea operates as a franchise business and is designed around a modern tea concept that integrates AI brewing technology. The system allows each drink to be prepared in approximately seven seconds while maintaining consistent quality.
The café’s menu includes pure tea, milk tea, Uji matcha, fruit tea, tea espresso, and smoothies.
The brand’s signature beverage, Fifteen Jasmine Flowers Green Tea, is crafted using a traditional triple scenting method, infusing the aroma of 15 real jasmine flowers into each cup. Additional popular offerings include Osmanthus Light Oolong, Red Oolong, and Peach Oolong.
