Detective Conan Cafe 2026 is the biggest character-cafe event of the Japanese spring, eight venues, a retro port-town theme tied to the 29th theatrical film The Fallen Angel of the Highway, and a reservation lottery that filled two full rounds before the cafes opened per the operator's announcement. Per visitor reports on X (Twitter), the standard 90-minute Phase 1 weekday slot at the Shibuya venue with a 715-yen reservation includes a Conan coaster, hamburg-steak menu access, and the puzzle book that brings collectors back through Phase 2. This guide covers the three venues overseas visitors actually reach, BOX cafe&space GEMS Shibuya in Tokyo, HEP FIVE in Osaka, and Global Gate Nagoya — with menu prices, the two-tier reservation fee, and the puzzle reward that brings regulars back three times.
Detective Conan Cafe (名探偵コナンカフェ) is an annual limited-time character-cafe event operated by BOX cafe&space and licensed by Shogakukan / TMS Entertainment / Yomiuri TV, the 2026 edition is themed "Retro Port Town" (港町レトロ), runs from April 10 to August 2, 2026, and marks the 30th broadcast anniversary of the TV anime that started in January 1996. Planning a Tokyo-only cafe day? Klook sells a Tokyo Subway 24-hour pass from 800 yen in English that covers every transfer you need to reach Shibuya and any other anime district in one day. Grab your Tokyo Metro pass on Klook, it pays for itself on the round trip alone if you also hit Ikebukuro or Shinjuku.

What Is the 2026 Retro Port Town Cafe?
This is a licensed pop-up. BOX cafe&space runs the kitchen and handles reservations; Shogakukan and Yomiuri TV approve the menu plating and character artwork. Theme "Retro Port Town" (港町レトロ) nods to The Fallen Angel of the Highway, where several scenes play out in an old-school yoshoku diner in a seaside town. Every character illustration shows a period-matched outfit, and the dishes are all showa-era Japanese western food — hamburg steak, napolitan spaghetti, curry rice, pudding à la mode. Anniversary backdrop matters here. Detective Conan began broadcasting on Yomiuri TV on January 8, 1996, so 2026 is the 30th year of the anime. Anniversary tour: the touring 30th Anniversary TV Anime Exhibition that opened at Tokyo Dome City Prism Hall on February 20, 2026 and tours Osaka, Fukuoka, and Hiroshima through 2026–2027, a separate ticketed exhibition, not a cafe. Coverage focuses on the Retro Port Town Cafe, a movie-tied collaboration that runs in parallel across spring and summer. The official Detective Conan Cafe 2026 site is the canonical source for dates, menu updates, and the reservation link. Collabo-cafe.com's event page mirrors the menu and merchandise in full and is easier to machine-translate in Chrome.
Where Are the 3 Main Venues?
Across the full run there are 8 venues; for most overseas visitors the three covered below are the practical choice. They sit in Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya, the three cities most Japan trips hit anyway.
| Venue | Address | Nearest Station | Hours |
|---|---|---|---|
| BOX cafe&space GEMS Shibuya | 3-27-11 Shibuya, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo , GEMS Shibuya 3F | JR Shibuya Station, New South Exit (新南口), 5 min walk | 11:00–21:15 |
| BOX cafe&space HEP FIVE | 5-15 Kakuda-cho, Kita-ku, Osaka. HEP FIVE 7F | Hankyu Osaka Umeda 5 min; JR Osaka Station Midosuji exit 4 min | 11:15–21:30 |
| BOX cafe&space Global Gate Nagoya | 4-60-12 Hiraike-cho, Nakamura-ku, Nagoya. Global Gate 1F | Aonami Line Sasashima-Live Station, 3 min walk | 11:15–21:30 |
For first-time visitors, Tokyo Shibuya is the default choice, five minutes from Shibuya Station on the third floor of GEMS Shibuya, which stacks several other collab cafes so you can pair Conan with a second event in the same day. Osaka HEP FIVE sits on the seventh floor of the red ferris-wheel building above Umeda, impossible to miss from the JR Osaka Midosuji exit. Nagoya Global Gate is the quietest of the three, a spacious 2017 tower complex across from Sasashima-Live Station that handles solo visitors best.

Hitting Osaka too? The Osaka Amazing Pass on Klook is 1,800 yen for one day and covers unlimited Osaka subway + Hankyu rides plus free entry to 40+ attractions — it pays for itself if you hit the cafe plus two other stops in the same day.

Browse Anime ExperiencesPhase 1 vs Phase 2. Why the Dates Matter
The event splits into two phases with separate menus and novelty gifts, if you have a favourite item, the dates are the gating factor.
- Phase 1 (前期): April 10 to May 17, 2026, covers the "Wind's" Beef Stew Hamburg, White Feather Napolitan, Fallen Angel Rice Curry, Angel Pudding à la Mode
- Closed: May 18–19 for phase changeover (some venues also close May 21)
- Phase 2 (後期): May 20 onward, through June 28 in Shibuya, July 5 in Nagoya, August 2 in Osaka Phase 2 swaps the three phase-1-only dishes for new ones and rotates the coaster and card illustrations. Exact Phase 2 menu items were not public as of April 2026, follow @conan_cafe on X or the official site for the mid-May menu drop.
What Is on the Menu? (Full Prices)
Every paid food or drink item ships with a rotating novelty card or coaster. You cannot buy the novelties separately, which is why regulars order multiple drinks in one sitting.
Full-Run Food Menu (all 3 venues)
| Item | Price | What You Get |
|---|---|---|
| "Wind's" Beef Stew Hamburg | 2,190 yen | Hamburg steak in demi-glace stew, named after a film character — the signature menu item |
| Detective Mix Fry Plate | 1,690 yen | Mixed fry platter of shrimp, croquette, and chicken cutlet with retro diner plating |
| Conan Waffle & Bread Set | +890 yen | Add-on set for any main, includes a waffle stamped with the Conan silhouette |
| Edogawa Conan Shortcake | 1,590 yen | Red-bowtie-decorated shortcake, served with a Conan latte-style drink on request |
| Character Drinks | 1,090 yen each | 8 character-themed drinks, milk cocoa, strawberry soda, cassis tonic, and others |
Phase 1 Only (前期, April 10 to May 17)
- White Feather Napolitan: 1,790 yen , classic ketchup-and-butter pasta plated with a white feather garnish tied to the film's "fallen angel" imagery
- Fallen Angel Rice Curry: 1,790 yen, dark curry rice plated with a black wing silhouette in the rice
- Angel Pudding à la Mode: 1,590 yen, retro-style pudding with whipped cream wings

Movie Commemoration Menu
- Haibara and Chisaka Lemon Sorbet Pasta: 1,890 yen, cold pasta with lemon sorbet on top, tied to characters Haibara Ai and Chisaka
- Angel vs Fallen Angel Drink: 1,190 yen, two-tone cocktail layering, gets the most camera attention of any 2026 drink
Pro tip: Order one food item and one character drink to stay inside the 715-yen reservation tier's free novelty allocation. If you want the full goods bundle, book the 3,850-yen premium slot from the start , it comes with the acrylic keychain, pouch, puzzle book, and shopping bag up front, so you skip the merchandise queue entirely.
How Do I Book? The 715 vs 3,850 Yen Reservation Tiers
This is where overseas fans get stuck, the cafe runs a paid reservation system rather than a free lottery. You pay the slot fee when booking, and the slot fee is in addition to what you order once seated. Standard reservation: 715 yen per person (tax included)
- One random invitation card, priority entry to your 75-minute seating
- No merchandise included, you buy goods separately in the same building Premium reservation: 3,850 yen per person (tax included)
- Acrylic keychain (random), character pouch, puzzle book, and shopping bag included
- Priority merchandise access before general sale
- The goods bundle retails around 4,500 yen piecewise, so this tier saves money if you want the keychain How the booking calendar works:
- Member + public lotteries ran February 25 to March 11, 2026 (both closed)
- Rolling cancellation release: From April 10 onward, cancelled slots go back on the official site as first-come-first-served — this is the main way overseas visitors secure seats in 2026
- Payment by credit card (Visa / Mastercard / JCB / Amex) or Japanese convenience store
Heads up: The reservation site is Japanese only, and children aged 4 and older need their own reservation. Cannot handle the Japanese booking flow? The nuclear option is to have your hotel concierge book on your behalf, many Shibuya and Umeda-area hotels have done this for overseas guests before and will accept a print-out of the page.
Recommended booking strategy: Set a timer for Japan Standard Time 10:00 AM weekday mornings from late April onward. Per visitor reports on X (Twitter), cancellations post in batches Monday / Wednesday / Friday. Refresh the date you want and book the earliest open weekday lunch, evenings and Saturdays typically clear within minutes.
The Puzzle Reward Mechanic (Why Regulars Visit Three Times)
Every reservation ships with a one-page puzzle card, a visual cipher tied to that phase's illustrated characters. Complete the puzzle at the cafe and staff stamp your loyalty sheet. Three stamps in Phase 2 across any combination of the eight venues earn a clear-case Conan file folder not sold as merch. Phase 1 had a simpler one-puzzle-one-sticker reward that regulars already chased in April. For overseas visitors on a two-week trip, one puzzle stamp in Tokyo is still a clean memento even if the three-stamp clear case is out of reach.
Why This Cafe Hits Different
The Japanese response has been quieter than the 2024 30th Anniversary Cafe but steadier, the film is playing well in its third release week, and Phase 1 slots have held around 80% booked. Regulars call the Retro Port Town theme a "reprieve" from Conan's usual bright-palette collab aesthetic, muted browns, period-costume illustrations, and yoshoku menu all lean nostalgic. These three metro venues are well chosen for a film-year tour. Each sits within walking distance of a major cinema chain, so fans can catch the film and the cafe in the same half-day. Hunting Conan merchandise while you are here? Browse Detective Conan figures and books on Rakuten, limited-run 30th-anniversary acrylic stands and art books are listed by resellers alongside new official stock, with free shipping over 3,980 yen on most stores.
FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to visit Detective Conan Cafe 2026?
Budget 2,300 to 3,500 yen per person on the standard tier , that is the 715-yen slot fee plus one food item (1,690 to 2,190 yen) and one drink (1,090 yen). Premium 3,850-yen tier gives you the acrylic keychain, pouch, puzzle book, and shopping bag on top of the seat, so budget 6,000 to 7,000 yen total for that option including food.
Can I walk in without a reservation?
No, all three of the metro venues (Shibuya, HEP FIVE, Global Gate Nagoya) require a paid reservation. Walk-ins are turned away. Slot not secured? Check the rolling cancellation listings on conan-cafe.jp from 10:00 AM Japan Standard Time on weekday mornings.
What is the difference between Phase 1 and Phase 2?
Phase 1 (April 10 to May 17) serves the White Feather Napolitan, Fallen Angel Rice Curry, and Angel Pudding à la Mode alongside the full-run menu. Phase 2 (from May 20) swaps those three items for new ones and rotates the character illustrations on coasters and cards. Phase 2 also unlocks the three-visit clear-case reward. Menu specifics for Phase 2 are posted on the official X account around mid-May.
Is this the same event as the 30th Anniversary Exhibition?
No. A separate 30th Anniversary TV Anime Exhibition runs as a ticketed exhibition running at Tokyo Dome City Prism Hall from February 20, 2026 and touring Osaka, Fukuoka, and Hiroshima through 2026–2027. Coverage here is the movie-tied "the Retro Port Town concept" collaboration running at BOX cafe&space venues. Fans often visit both in the same trip.
Which venue is best for overseas first-timers?
Tokyo Shibuya for most visitors, five minutes from Shibuya Station, easy to combine with Harajuku or Shinjuku in the same day, and the GEMS Shibuya building holds several other collab cafes if your booking is for lunch and you want more anime-themed stops before dinner. Osaka HEP FIVE is the cleanest pick for a Kansai trip; Nagoya Global Gate is the quietest of the three and best for solo visitors who want a slower pace.
