Taiwan's No. 1 maid cafe opens in Akihabara - Tsukuyomi Maid Cafe

In the Reiwa era, the emergence of new maid cafes has caused a lot of shock.
Akihabara is truly known as a con cafe town, with over 200 con cafes in operation.
Although classic maid cafes are on the decline, long-time Akihabara residents were delighted.

So, this time I'd like to introduce you to Tsukuyomi Maid Cafe, a good old maid cafe that recently opened in Akihabara.

What is Tsukuyomi Maid Cafe?

Tsukuyomi Dining Group, which operates maid cafes mainly in Taiwan, has opened a maid cafe in Akihabara, Japan.
Tsukuyomi Dining Group has brought the new culture of "maid cafes," which was born in Akihabara about 20 years ago, to Taiwan.
After expanding into Taiwan, they opened a Taiwanese maid cafe in Akihabara, which is considered the holy land of the original.

It's shocking to see a classic maid cafe opening in Akihabara in the Reiwa era...
Would you call it an Akihabara-inspired maid cafe?

Check out the difference between maid cafes and con cafes

Before introducing the shop, let's first review the difference between maid cafes and con cafes.
In a broad sense, "maid cafes" fall under the broad category of "concept cafes," but even though the name includes "maid cafe" or "maid cafe," they can be broadly categorized by the system.
If you keep it down for now, there's no problem.
■ Maid Cafe
Food and drinks are the main focus
・The uniform is a maid outfit or something that matches the concept of the store
・No seat charge or cover fee
・No alcoholic beverages (even if there are, they comply with coffee shop regulations)
■Con Cafe
・Drinks (alcohol) are the main
・Seat charges and cover fees are charged on an hourly basis
That's about it.

Of course, Tsukuyomi Maid Cafe is a pure maid cafe.

A classic maid cafe with luxurious interior

What do you imagine the inside of a maid cafe to be like?
A cute interior with a pastel theme?
Or maybe European woody decorations?
The interior of Tsukuyomi Maid Cafe is reminiscent of a luxurious guest house.

The interior is based on white, with calm accent colors and gold decorations.
There is a stage with a horse-drawn carriage motif in the center of the store.

The counter is also spacious, allowing you to use the tabletop to your advantage.

The sofa seats are quite spacious, so it can easily accommodate large groups.
The L-shaped sofa seats in the back especially give off a VIP vibe.

Both the counter seats and sofa seats are equipped with power outlets.
I make full use of my smartphone when I'm walking around Akihabara, so it's nice to be able to charge it at any seat.

The walls are decorated with original maid outfits from Tsukuyomi Maid Cafe.
