Cafe Cre Asion

Cafe$

This venue is one of Good Food’s 100 Essential Sydney Cafes and Bakeries of 2026.

Owner Yu Sasaki pioneered Sydney’s matcha movement with the opening of Cafe Cre Asion in 2011. The original has closed, but he’s since expanded to two small, minimalist cafes in North Sydney and Pyrmont, each serving a considered menu of green-hued drinks and desserts – from slices of matcha chiffon cake and Swiss rolls filled with matcha cream to matcha lattes built to your specifications.

The take-home powders and matcha gear – 100-prong whisks; bespoke bowls – are top-tier, too.

Good to know: Peruse the shelves for ceremonial-grade matcha powder and whisks.
