Gong Cha, the global tea café chain, is set to open a new location at LaLaport Izumi in Osaka on April 23, 2026 (Thursday). The new branch will be situated right next to the renovated "FOOD PARK" area, which features sofa seating and BOX seating.
Since making its debut in Japan in 2015, Gong Cha has continued to expand its footprint well beyond 200 locations nationwide. The chain has earned wide support for its approach of making high-quality tea accessible in a casual setting — offering individually customizable drinks, welcoming service, and inviting store environments that are perfect for catching up with friends.
Operating in approximately 30 countries with over 2,000 locations worldwide, Gong Cha is known for carefully sourcing quality tea leaves and brewing them in-store with attention to water temperature and steeping time.
