By marrying the longstanding global traditions of matcha along with the Gulf South’s cultural reverence for coffee, Yvonne Picoff was able to make real a lifelong dream through the founding and grand success of Evolve Coffee + Matcha. Burnt out by corporate slog, Yvonne took her chance to create a space that was wholly her own, an outward and delicious manifestation of her own brand of curiosity, intelligence, and creativity. A New Orleans native, Yvonne feels that elevating the experience of guests and her own team are one and the same; a fostering of intimate connection that not only enriches her community, but also her own life as well. With multiple locations, Evolve Coffee + Matcha is more than a dream come true; it’s a reflection of its founder born out of love that is meant to be nurtured and shared with anyone with a taste for something authentically New Orleans.
