Thank goodness May Picnic Table is open! The matchas are beautiful, fragrant, and delicious. If you like lavender, you need to taste the Lavender Matcha! Their food has tasted fresh both times I’ve been here and the ambience is perfect for a dine in! A great place for a date, to hang with friends or even to study. The egg sandwich is perfectly fluffy and the strawberry jam compliments it perfectly. The tofu pockets come in a variety of flavors that are all delicious, and you get to try them all with your order!

Enjoyed my experience here! Came for the ramen, they had a few different varieties, the place was nice and quiet. Perfect for getting work done or meeting friends. I do believe you pay for the experience here as the food seemed a bit pricey for the amount received.

Cute little shop. I went late in the day and just got the tofu pockets. They were all really good and different. My favorite was the imitation crab meat/salad one. The spicy tuna was good but really spicy. I wish you can mix and match the set especially since it was made to order. Overall, I had a good experience, I will be back to try other things.

Hands down the best strawberry matcha. Have tried it multiple places and there’s is just the best. Perfectly sweet and creamy, a great little treat that is my newest obsession.

Sweet little place with a chill vibe, great service and delicious treats. We tried a little bit of everything. The rice balls were perfect in both filling amount and rice texture. The bulgogi was just right. The yuzu cheesecake was divine. The kimbap was filling and perfectly seasoned with fresh veggies. The strawberry jam in the egg sandwich was a surprise. I don't usually like sweet and savory mixed, but it was really good. I loved my yuzu honey tea and loved watching them make a ceremonial grade matcha latte using the bamboo tea whisk. Will definitely come again.

I have been to May Picnic Table several times, and each visit never disappoints! Their wonderful drinks, food, quality, and service always tempts me to visit again and again. It is great to have a such a lovely space for food and matcha not too far from the UCO campus! I love love love the Lavender Matcha out of the drinks I tried so far. It adds a light sweetness that compliments and highlights the natural elements of the matcha. Here, the texture of the matcha is so nice and smooth! I have yet to find a place in Oklahoma that makes matcha better than here. I tried the Strawberry Matcha recently and can speak of it similarly! Although I personally like the Lavender Matcha more, the Strawberry exceeded expectations too. Usually with strawberry-flavored drinks, I tend to think it is too sweet, but this was perfect and not overwhelming at all! The added texture of the strawberry puree was fun and interesting as well! As for food, I only tried the Bulgogi Kimbap, Gochujang Bowl, and Spicy Tuna Mayo Triangle Kimbap, but all of these are delicious too! For the Bulgogi Kimbap, I got it with Sriracha Sauce (which did cost a little more with it), but it was a decent kimbap. For me, it is good for a lighter lunch. The Gochujang Bowl is my favorite in terms of food at May Picnic Table. It is not overly spicy, but has a little kick as well as some sweetness! I enjoy all the textures of the combined ingredients. Overall, it was so tasty and filling! When I went here with my partner, I tried a few bites of the Spicy Tuna Mayo Triangle Kimbap and that was definitely spicier. It was still good though! Because of my partner’s dietary restrictions, we wanted to make sure it did not have any gluten before purchasing. The staff were so helpful and attentive during our visit, and we really appreciated it! We were told the Kewpie Mayo they used might have gluten, but my partner has not had an issue with that kind of mayo before thankfully. Even later on, my partner was fine! We appreciate the heads up from Alice and another employee that was there at the time! They were awesome! While I enjoyed my matcha, my partner could enjoy something to eat. I always look forward to the next time I visit! The inside is so clean, and there are various kinds of seating. The place is well decorated and the music adds to the experience but is just the right volume. It is so cute and relaxing!
