Step into Tocha, a serene Japanese tea house at Banyan Tree Dubai, where the timeless rituals of Japanese tea culture meet contemporary hospitality. Inspired by the quiet beauty, craftsmanship and sense of ceremony found in traditional Japanese teahouses, Tocha offers a modern interpretation of an age-old experience—thoughtful, elegant and deeply rooted in Asian traditions.

At the heart of Tocha is an appreciation for tea, flavour and the art of slowing down. Discover a carefully curated selection of premium teas and distinctive beverages, complemented by a contemporary Japanese all-day menu featuring beautifully crafted small plates. Each creation celebrates delicate flavours and refined ingredients, bringing together familiar Japanese elements with a modern sensibility.

Experience the Afternoon Tea Tree, Banyan Tree’s signature interpretation of afternoon tea, inspired by the philosophy of Asia. Choose between a Japanese-inspired selection of sweet and savoury bites, showcasing ingredients such as yuzu, green tea and matcha, or an International Tea experience featuring classic pastries, freshly baked scones and delicate sandwiches.

As afternoon transitions into evening, Tocha takes on a more vibrant character with its Japanese-style aperitivo hour. Sip on a curated selection of drinks, each thoughtfully paired with two inspired otsumami—small Japanese bites created to complement and enhance the drinking experience.

Whether you are joining for a quiet tea ritual, a leisurely afternoon, a light meal or an elegant aperitivo, Tocha invites you to pause, connect and savour the moment. A contemporary expression of Japanese tea culture, Tocha is where tradition meets imagination, and every detail is designed to create an experience worth lingering over.
