Square Enix Cafe Osaka

For those who grew up through the nineties and noughties enjoying the height of the Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest crazes, this cafe is a dream come true. Situated just outside Akihabara Station, the Square-Enix Cafe provides coffee and snacks themed around the game of the month, presented beautifully (and usually on the sweet side!) Merchandise can be browsed and bought, from the hottest new game to older classics. Every so often, when a new Square Enix game launches, the entire cafe’s decor, menu items, music, and items for sale dramatically transform, giving both locals and tourists a reason to keep returning.
