Japan is well known for it's cute character cafes that run for a limited time period like this Cinnamoroll cafe or the Card Captor Sakura Cafe, but this time here at TokyoTreat we decided to compile a list for all you Japanese snack and Japanese candy lovers of themed restaurants that are open all year round!

Vampire Cafe – Ginza

With the boom of vampire stories in both manga and anime in recent years its no wonder a cafe with a vampire theme exists! The vampire cafe in Ginza really does go all out with not only its decor but also the food and even the staff! Due to the restaurant being inspired by tales of European vampires, all the food is European style with a Gothic vampire twist! The staff also dress the part with the Vampire Cafe's main server Vampire Rose being sure to provide an immersive experience!

As you can see all the food is delightfully creepy and sure to please whether you love European cuisine or Japanese candy! Though be warned with the Vampire Cafe you're not only paying for the food but for the experience as a whole, so it's a little bit on the pricier side! However still definitely worth visiting!

Ninja Akasaka – Akasaka

As you may have guessed from the name, Ninja Akasaka is entirely Ninja themed! The decor is incredibly detailed, looking exactly like how you'd imagine a ninja's hideout to look like and you're served by ninjas clad out in their gear! It feels like they've really gone all out in all aspects of this restaurant and you certainly wont be disappointed!

Even the food is incredibly detailed featuring things like throwing stars, knives and even a realistic looking bonsai tree made entirely of Japanese sweets! Their courses start from around 5000yen and the non set items are an average 1500yen which is pretty standard and definitely worth it considering the experience you're getting!
