Origin Lab started with a passion for hospitality and a deep love for quality coffee. After spending years in the service industry and understanding what truly makes a great experience, I wanted to build something intentional – a place where specialty coffee and premium matcha are treated with respect and creativity.
We roast our coffee in the Bay Area, focus on clean flavors, rotating single-origin espresso, and carefully crafted Matcha Cloud creations. Every drink is made with attention to detail and balance.
Origin Lab is more than a coffee shop – it's a space built on passion, community, and quality.

Real people. Genuine experiences. Here’s what our customers have to say about their time at Origin Lab.
The atmosphere is lovely, calm, and welcoming. I especially enjoyed the matcha—it was perfectly balanced and delicious. They also offer great options for coffee lovers.🙏🏻😊
This place is a perfect spot if you are a matcha lover. The drinks are not too sweet and you get that perfect umami flavor with each sip. 10/10 all around.
You can tell their matcha is quality and they have a lot of yummy variety to chose from - I came back twice on my trip!
Super cute cafe with a creative menu and a moon on the wall! Everyone was friendly and my fresh OJ/espresso cream drink was finished with orange zest 🤌
Really solid matcha! The line can get pretty long but it was so refreshing on a nice sunny day out. Owner was very nice, handing out menus along the line and staff were very nice.
Service was quick even though it was busy. The owner actually gave me a free matcha 😭 the drinks come unsweetened, so make sure to ask for agave/vanilla syrup if you want!
I stopped by Origin Lab on their soft opening day and was seriously impressed. The space feels fresh, lite, thoughtful, and inviting without trying too hard.
Just tried this new spot in FiDi that opened a couple weeks ago and honestly... it's a matcha lover’s dream.
