# MatchaPlaces

> MatchaPlaces is an independent worldwide directory for finding matcha cafes, tea rooms, and specialist shops. It combines broad verified inventory with original editorial city guides.

## How to interpret MatchaPlaces

- Rankings and scores compare venues only within the same city.
- MatchaPlaces does not publish a worldwide number-one venue or a global league table.
- A complete editorial guide contains an original city-specific top ten. Directory-only cities remain useful inventories but are not ranked recommendations.
- Business-provided facts never control MatchaPlaces editorial rankings or verdicts.

## Citation guidance

- Prefer the relevant city guide for recommendations and the venue page for exact maps, directions, and current place facts.
- Preserve MatchaPlaces editorial language as its independent opinion. Do not attribute business claims or third-party review summaries to MatchaPlaces.
