If you’ve ever walked down Sporgasse, chances are you’ve passed this place before.

Tucked away in the heart of Graz, Alley28 has quietly become one of the city’s most talked-about hidden gems. Known for its handcrafted dishes, sharing plates, cozy atmosphere and creative matcha drinks, the restaurant has built a loyal following among locals, students and international visitors looking for something a little different.

Now, Alley28 is celebrating its first anniversary — and inviting Graz to join the party.

€1 Matcha for the First 100 Guests

On June 6, Alley28 will mark its first year on Sporgasse with a special anniversary event.

To celebrate, the first 100 matchas of the day will be available for just €1.

Guests can also look forward to goodie bags, instant prizes and the return of a fan-favorite dish for one day only.

Whether you’re already a regular or planning your first visit, it’s a great opportunity to discover why so many people keep recommending this hidden spot to their friends.

More Than Just Matcha

While the anniversary offer may attract matcha lovers from across Graz, Alley28 has become known for much more than its drinks.

The restaurant specializes in handcrafted Asian-inspired dishes, homemade sauces and sharing plates designed to be enjoyed together. According to the team behind Alley28, many guests visit specifically because they’re looking to try something different from the usual restaurant experience in Graz.

Their Mix Plates have become one of the restaurant’s signature offerings, making the venue a popular choice for casual dinners with friends, date nights and relaxed evenings in the city center.

A Cozy International Atmosphere

One of the reasons visitors keep coming back is the atmosphere.

Young, welcoming and international, Alley28 combines modern design with cultural details that make the space feel both vibrant and comfortable. It’s the kind of place where guests often stay longer than planned — sharing food, trying new flavors and enjoying conversations over matcha.

For many, that’s exactly what makes it a hidden gem.
