'94 Cafe

'94 Cafe in Palm Beach, Gold Coast, grew from The Oatopia and more than five years of hospitality experience at local farmers markets. The team began by serving organic porridges, creamy overnight oats and signature matcha to early risers and breakfast lovers before bringing the concept to Palm Beach.

Matcha is central to the '94 offering. The venue uses 100% organic, ceremonial-grade matcha sourced from a family-owned farm in Kyoto, Japan, with only the first harvest selected for its bright colour, mild flavour and smooth texture. The matcha is served as a considered daily ritual, with the cafe describing it as calming, focusing and free from the bitterness and additives often associated with lower-quality preparations. In-house syrups, including strawberry and salted caramel, are made with real fruit and a little brown sugar rather than artificial colours or synthetic flavours.

The cafe’s identity is shaped around serving, hosting and connecting, with European roots and an Aussie outlook. Its idea of hospitality extends beyond the drink itself, drawing on music, beach swims, morning runs and the feeling of finding a place that feels familiar. That makes '94 a natural stop for a morning matcha, a breakfast catch-up or a quiet personal ritual, although the source does not provide enough detail to describe the fit-out, seating or specific facilities. Alongside cafe offerings, the brand sells matcha powder, whisks, bowls and gift cards for taking the '94 ritual home.
