I went to the Final Fantasy XV Limited Cafe at the new Square Enix Cafe space located in Akihabara, and the cafe was AMAZING. If you’re an FFXV fan, then this cafe is like the geekiest thing you can do (and believe me, I was internally freaking out the entire time lol). Wrote a review of the cafe, food, and goods available. Enjoy~

FFXV Cafe Food Pictures



The space itself is Square Enix’s new cafe location in Akihabara, Tokyo. This is the third Square Enix/Final Fantasy cafe (besides Artnia and Eorzea). The concept of the Square Enix Cafe is to have a space where they can focus on limited edition games, and I foresee there eventually being a limited Kingdom Hearts cafe, NieR Automata cafe, etc.

INTERIOR DECOR

The interior of the cafe is covered with posters and huge tapestries of scenes from the game and Kingsglaive. There are also several large TVs playing trailers for FFXV, Kingsglaive, and Brotherhood nonstop.

The cafe also has a wicked soundtrack that really adds to the atmosphere. They played the Camping Theme, which definitely felt like Ignis was just cooking next door haha. Other songs they played was Duscae Demo’s Hammerhead, Fight Fantastica, Omnis Lacrima, Nox Aeterna, Duscae’s night-time battle theme, and some tracks from Kingsglaive.

FFXV FOOD MADE BY IGNIS

Ignis’ potluck stew from the Duscae Demo is an item you can order from the cafe, and it is DELICIOUS. It tastes sort of like a chowder with baked potatoes, carrots, chicken, and arugula stewed in a creamy sauce. According to the place mat that you can get at the cafe, Prompto is the one shown eating Ignis’ stew here:

The next FFXV item I tried was the “Titan Mont Blanc,” which was a dessert dish with a sponge cake topped with whip cream and chestnut “dirt” crumbles. The montblanc was pretty good, a bit too chocolately for my taste, but still good. Noctis is seen eating the Montblanc in the placemat here:

They also had a Titan sculpture bust that showed details of Titan’s head.

All drinks also come with FFXV pixel art coasters, and apparently these pixel art characters pop up next to Ignis’ food items in the actual game, showing which food is each character’s favorite foods.

For food items that are not part of the FFXV limited edition food, we got a special Final Fantasy Big Bang Placemat, available for purchase here!

FFXV CAFE LIMITED EDITION GOODS

With a limited theme cafe comes limited edition goods, and the FFXV cafe goods are super cool, especially the posters since thus far, we have not had many official FFXV posters, but the selection at the cafe was pretty great.

The cafe also has huge poster versions of the posters you can buy from the cafe, so I thought it was a good marketing touch.

SPECIAL ITEMS AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTS

Each FFXV related plate came with a placemat that picture each character, such as Prompto for Ignis’ stew, Noctis with the Montblanc cake, Ignis with a chiffon cake, and Gladio with pizza lol.

The cafe itself actually was pretty well done, and being an FFXV freak, I was pretty much internally screaming the whole time. The food was also surprisingly good for a anime/game themed cafe as usually themed-cafes are always kind of crappy because you pay for presentation over quality of food haha.

All in all, the cafe is an amazing experience, and we will be going back next week to try the other food items we weren’t able to try today.
