Questions visitors ask

What is a concept café?

A themed café, from maids to idols, each with its own house rules.

Can foreigners get into bars in Golden Gai or Ura-Namba?

Some welcome tourists. The regulars-only ones let you in as a host’s guest.

Why do I have to verify my ID?

So everyone is 20+ and real. Other members never see your document.

Do I need to speak Japanese?

No. Hosts list their languages, and you can filter by them.

Can I choose who I’m matched with?

Yes: women, men or anyone. Hosts choose too.

Is this a dating app?

No. Hosts show visitors their city, and both sides agree before meeting.

Which cities can I use it in?

Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Nagoya, Fukuoka and Sapporo, or tell us yours.
