Medarot’s new diner café puts Metabee’s face on a burger

Metabee’s face is the finishing touch on a cheeseburger at MEDAROTTERS Café, the new Medarot—known in English as Medabots—collaboration at Collabo Cafe Honpo’s Akihabara and Osaka Nipponbashi branches. The reservation-only event runs from November 20 to December 13, 2026, with bookings opening October 30 at noon Japan time.

Ikki’s diner shift comes with curry udon

Horuma Rin’s new artwork casts Ikki, Metabee and Rokusho as diner staff. Ikki wears roller skates, Metabee carries burger plates and Rokusho holds a character-themed dessert.

The Metabee Burger costs ¥1,540. For a fuller meal, the Katsu Curry Udon Set is ¥1,650, pairing cutlet-topped curry udon with rice and miso soup. Medarot Potato & Crispy Chicken is also ¥1,540.

The Rokusho Float Parfait and Roborobo Parfait are ¥1,320 each. Rokusho’s version combines panna cotta, blue jelly and vanilla ice cream; Roborobo’s features brownies, chocolate ice cream and chocolate sauce.

There are also 11 character drinks at ¥750 each, including two hot options. All listed prices include tax.

The special cake has its own A4 card bonus

The Medarotters SPECIAL CAKE costs ¥1,650 and is limited to one per person. Each cake comes with one A4 illustration card, with a choice of two designs. It does not include the regular food-and-dessert mini bromide card.

Ordinary food and dessert items each come with one random mini bromide card from seven designs. Each character drink comes with one random coaster from 12 designs, including a secret design.

There is a separate offer for the selectable A4 cards: purchasing two food/dessert coupons earns one card. That reward is for buying the coupons; menu items ordered using coupons do not receive order bonuses. Benefits are available only while supplies last.

Diner artwork to take home, with online shipping in April

The three full-figure acrylic stand designs use the new diner artwork and cost ¥1,980 each; they are not blind-packed. The six merchandise lines also include B8 card cases, a sticker set and blind-pack collections of cards, acrylic keychains and chibi acrylic stands.

In-store merchandise is sold only to café customers, so there is no merchandise-only walk-in shopping. Every ¥3,000 spent on collaboration-menu items and merchandise combined earns one random illustration card from four designs, while supplies last. This spending bonus is separate from the cake’s selectable A4 card.

Online orders at MEDICOS e-SHOP are already open, having started October 27, 2026 at noon Japan time, and run through January 12, 2027. Shipments are planned to begin in April 2027, separate from the café’s November–December sales.

Before booking your 70-minute visit

Bookings will be handled through TableCheck’s Akihabara and Osaka Nipponbashi reservation pages. There is no walk-in entry, numbered-ticket distribution or cancellation waiting list.

A credit card must be registered when booking. The booking representative must bring an original official ID bearing their name—a passport is accepted, but photocopies are not. One reservation can cover up to four people in Akihabara or three in Osaka Nipponbashi.

Each visit lasts 70 minutes, with last orders 30 minutes before the session ends. There is no table charge, and guests aged three and over must place at least one order. Redeeming a coupon requires an additional order; a coupon purchase or soft drink can count toward that requirement.

Cancellations are free until 72 hours before the visit. Later cancellations and no-shows incur a fee of ¥750 per reserved guest.

Both cafés close on non-holiday Tuesdays. If stairs are a concern, note before booking that the Akihabara café is on the second floor and has no elevator.
