There are two new branches of the Final Fantasy XIV (herein FFXIV) café Eorzea opening in Japan. The new locations are in Kyoto and Nagoya, the 7th and 4th largest cities in the country respectively. Currently, there are two other branches of Eorzea in Japan, in Tokyo and Osaka.

They have been open for over five years now, and enjoy a steady stream of customers. New locations opening in other cities brings FFXIV to hardcore fans that might not have the chance to easily travel to the original cafés.

The announcement was made in late May in Eorzea’s official website, along with their menus. They will both open from June 16th, and are listed as only for a limited time, though an end date has not been posted. Local fans are likely hoping that the cafés are available for a long time. The Nagoya location and Kyoto location will have different food and drink menus (with all the prices listed in gil!), and both are heavily themed. Both cafés have plenty of main dishes to choose from, many of which have character motifs or even weapons on them. One particularly striking dessert in Nagoya even looks like crystals.

For drinks, there are plenty of colorful concoctions based on the image of characters or places, Moogle milk tea, and even Japanese sake. The dessert menu for the Kyoto café is also inspired by its location in Japan’s historical heart, with lots of traditional matcha and dango sweets. Everything makes a great celebration after finishing a grueling dungeon. While interior pictures of the cafés have not been released, they will likely have heavy theming as well.

The Osaka location looks like the city of Ul’dah, including a painting of Sultana Nanamo, and the Tokyo location looks like Gridania. The interior design for Kyoto and Nagoya have been kept under wraps so far, so we might not know what they look like until the cafés open. There has not been any official information yet, but it’s also likely that these new cafés will have a limited goods shop attached as well. Theme cafés are always a great place to pick up exclusive goods, and as FFXIV merchandise can be a bit challenging to find even in Japan, having a shop attached will be excellent news for gamers. All food will come with a location-specific lunch mat to take home, and hopefully, the cafés will also offer the customary free coasters with every menu item, too!
