I enjoyed the Dungeon Meshi Cafe. The food is pricey for the quality, but what makes this special is that the cafe recreates the dishes cooked in the story so it feels more immersive. The cafe was nicely decorated with large artworks, a poster autographed by Ryoko Kui and others, and the tables had artworks from the manga. The anime BGM soundtrack added a nice atmosphere. It was a relaxing meal and I had fun!

Beautiful atmosphere. There was a vast merch section, the food was pretty good. Although, what I thought tasted really good were the drinks. (A bit pricey but that's expected with collab cafes)
