Maid cafés are incredibly popular in Japan. You’ve probably seen videos of maid cafés on TikTok where waiters and waitresses are dressed as maids and butlers and act like personal servants to customers. They not just serve food and drink, but also sing, dance, and play games with their ‘Masters’ and ‘Princesses’.
Usagi Anime Maid Café – just like the Japanese version – serve kawaii food and drink, including Omurice, parfait, Magic Soda, waffles and more. ‘Masters’ and ‘Princesses’ can ask their maid or butler to decorate their food by drawing something cute on it with ketchup or chocolate sauce.
There are a few rules, however, all guests should keep in mind.
Photos and videos of the maids and butlers are not allowed. If you want to bring a memory home, you can take a ‘cheki’ which is basically a mini polaroid photo with one of the maids or butlers that they then personalise for you.

Halloween Week at Usagi Anime Maid Café

From 25 – 31 October, every day is revolving around a specific theme. The maids and butlers dress up or cosplay according to the theme of the day and they encourage their Masters and Princesses to do the same.
Check out the full list of the themes here and book a table on their website.
They serve special Halloween and Autumn-themed set menu during the whole week to “taste the sweetness of Autumn”.
Plus, they provide both spooky and kawaii Halloween accessories you can use for free to take photos or a cheki with your maid or butler.
I went to the ‘Sweet Gothic Lolita – Black & Pink’ and the ‘Gothic Style’ days.

The Halloween week started on the 25 October with ‘Sweet Lolita – Black & Pink’ day.
All the maids were wearing cute black & pink Lolita dress, kawaii makeup and accessories and encouraged their Masters and Princesses to wear black & pink outfit (not compulsory).
On the first day, I ordered their cute Halloween special set menu. It contained a purple and green ‘poisonous’ matcha drink, a mini pumpkin pie and a kawaii Halloween ice scream brain dessert coated in fresh cream and garnished with everything Halloween. The set menu also contained a cheki with a maid or butler.
To make sure my food would be super delicious, my maid taught me a secret magic spell to put on my desserts and drink. ✨

After finishing my food, I took a cheki with my maid. I picked a Halloween-themed axe headband and love how the photo turned out.

The ’Gothic Style’ day on the 27 October was the one I loved the most. To align the theme of the day, I wore a striped black and white long sleeve shirt with my favourite Death Note tee on top and a pair of skeleton earrings.
This time I ordered their special black Omurice and a green Magical Soda. You can ask your maid or butler to draw literally anything on your food with ketchup or chocolate sauce, in case of a dessert. I asked my maid to draw a bat on the top my Omurice. 🦇
