It's not just a cafe! I tried working at a study cafe in Akihabara

Even though Akihabara is a city of hobbies, there are bound to be people who want to study.
So I went to a "study cafe" which is the perfect place to study!

I tried out a study cafe in Akihabara.

Study Cafes primarily provide study spaces for members. However, they also offer services for non-members, such as visitor use, so you can use the space whenever you want without becoming a member. This time, I tried using it as a visitor for two hours.

First of all, please note that Study Cafe Akihabara Studio is a 7-minute walk from Akihabara Station and a 1-minute walk from Suehirocho Station, so the nearest station is Suehirocho.

When I went to the reception, I was told that the fee had to be paid in advance, so I told them the time I would like to use and paid.
After receiving an explanation about the Wi-Fi and drink bar available to visitors, you can take a seat of your choice and start working.

The binder you are given after paying contains information about usage times and the wireless LAN SSID and password.

There were two types of study spaces available: a lounge space where eating, drinking, and conversation were allowed, and a working space where conversation and eating were prohibited (drinks were allowed).
It's great that you can use it to suit your mood.

The lounge space was similar to a typical cafe, with sofa seats, two-seater seats, and several single seats with power outlets.

The working space was a neat, self-study room with single seats and power outlets, with quiet background music playing.
The study space didn't feel cramped even when I spread out my books and notebooks, and the partitions between the seats were large, so I was able to concentrate on my work without worrying about those around me.

All that's left to do is return the binder and you're done.

My impression is that study cafes are spaces where you can study more seriously than in a regular cafe, but more casually than in a library.
If you find studying too difficult, I think it's worth giving it a try.
