Ah, another cosplay cafe thread. As always, I'll help out in any way I can; including volunteering, if need be. I've worked for Starbucks for 3 years, so maybe I can handle the coffee portion for you ^.^

I just hope you have lots of money and friends to get this off the ground!

Yeah, lots of people have tried this, but it's mostly the money thing that kills it. I mean, you need LOTS, and let's face it - otaku aren't the richest of people. According to this:

http://espresso101.com/coffee_faq.html

even opening a coffee CART costs well over $20,000. I'm not trying to put a damper on your project or anything (I'd love to see it work!), it's just a very difficult thing to accomplish, realistically.

Although, I know of a lot of otaku who would be very happy if you actually succeed!

If it's just a one-day thing out of your house, it might be fun. Anything more than that, there are a whole slew of problems you're gonna need to consider. It might not be that productive as an actual food-serving cafe though, mainly because of getting customers. You'll probably run into legal issues if you advertise/cater to people outside the forums.

Also, can you change your font please? It's a bit hard to read...

'Cause everyone thinks it's weird or perverted or "objectifying women" etcetc

... which it may be, but so what? Strip clubs are legal, aye? BD *brick'd*

I know of a maid cafe and a manga cafe that closed down recently :c They were in Cali... But it makes me sad that they couldn't last that long, especially there.

I wouldn't be surprised if a small one in Portland were to survive. Especially if they welcomed meet-ups and whatnot there. Even making coupons to hand out at cons.. AUGHHH I WANT A COSPLAY CAFE. >O<

LOL i was actually planning on opening a maid/anime cafe but not now. after i get my carreer going (ima actually do a minor in bartending) and my major is a teacher degree lol (and i work as a reg/front at a fast food chain) so i mean i know where i'm going into. i just need to save up for a few years... (like 15 years or so) and then place in downtown and live there. me and nick were already planning on doing this (since he's going into the culinary arts) and so it would be a great project.

it's been a dream of mine to open a restaurant (same with him) and live on top of my restaurant/bar and just enjoy the great life :3 (although it's not that great right now economically but i know in a few years it will be okay ^_^)

if you want help or something let me know, but something as BIG as what my idea is, i don't think you'll have enough... srsly koneko sweety -_-" i can help you if you wanna make this a one day or 3 day event, but i can't do really help much if it's a long-term goal like mine. (although you're welcome to join ours :3 but we'll be opening ours probably in japan (it's going to be american/mexican food and french pastries and a bar as well for open mic and all sorts of stuff :3) although now that i think about it, i think having one here would be a great idea, ESPECIALLY if it's a bar at night and a cafe and restaurant for breakfast/lunch/dinner.

but hey! if you want me to help with a small project like a once a year type thing, then YES count me in! >w< i can help with the treasurer/money stuff :3

that sounds super fun! i would like to help!! I have been planning to some day in the future to do something like that but more of butlers and lolita maids.. but its all the same as long as we try to let our customers have fun. I have a degree in Baking & Patisierre and I do have cafe experiences via serving and great customer service (working in nordstrom's cafe).

anywhoo, why not do some japanese based food since it will be a "cosplay cafe" and maybe even sweets? maybe you can based food off some animes? for example Naruto's favorite ramen dish? or maybe a dessert buffet?

if you're thinking sweets..

mini fruit tarts


jumbo size individual creme puffs


or even cute plated desserts, possible with anime characters drawn with sauce or something?



*i made these too so yummiess*

the thing about having it in portland is the Location. Sometimes the most secluded place is the best. like Rimsky house is a dessert house only open at night and its popular. Its good to have a business plan made up first. usually about the finances and how much you would spends per year. usually new business dont last long if they dont succeed the very first year. and of course you need to know the design plan and the menus and everything you are serving and hmm. there is alot put into it. hopefully I can be of some help. I know I like to be a helping hand as well!

i know! how weirder can we get? we got pirate festival, zombie marches, nude bicyclists, no pants day.. we definitely need that cafe.

or what if we can do a monthly or an annual cafe party? wouldn't that be great. it would also be nice to do like shows or performances like parapara dances or something..
here is a youtube channel of my sister and her friends being having fun doing anime maid cafe stuff "AniMaid Cafe" for sort.. i know they also serve juices and simply drinks as well as sandwiches during AX (anime expo in Los Angeles) or other anime conventions in California.

I will make a meet up date as soon as i feel all better and ill bring a few boxes so people can write down there ideas and put them in the boxes and if you have uniform ideas or designs for the cafe you can do it when ever you want and turn them in to me or soryko when the meet up comes around.

You guys have to remember this isn't something that's just gonna start all the sudden. It will probably take a few years to actually find our own shop, and actually be able to afford it. o__o We'll probably need help making the money. D;
I wouldn't worry about when you can work or anything like that just yet.

For now we're just looking for ideas and such. Eventually, we'll be able to get it going and decorate the shop. >u<

Also if you have yet to check out the edited front page, know that we plan to have a meet up Friday, the 27th to discuss ideas.^^

For the love of Haruhi, NO!!!  Please!  Anything but that!!!  Over done!

I like the Hare Hare Yukai dance, but I could see some people saying that this one might be over done, too.

Lucky Star is a fine series.  The Caramelldansen is what I'm opposing, especially since almost everyone who does it only does that few seconds worth of hand-flapping with hip-shaking motion.

this would be fun if it was a panel at a con or something or a once in a while event. I would love to wait tables as a maid :3

I'd join in, but I have other priorities. But I'd love to help in any way, even if it's just supporting ^^

If I can, I may come by Friday to see what plans are and such. And of course give my opinions and maybe decided whether or not I could join!

Even though it's too late for that, there's places that can be agreed upon for meeting up for this.  If I recall correctly, the bistro will be arranged for con-goers to hang out (except during breakfast).

Hmm... well, personally that doesn't work.  I have meetings every Saturday (except in the month of September, for some odd reason) so I won't be able to be there.  I'd love to hear the results, and possibly send my few ideas to someone that knows for sure that they'll be there.  So far, I'm the first to respond to this date change, so maybe I'll wait a little bit first...

I just came up wiht an Idea.
How about we rent a place once a month for a Cosplay cafe event? I know of lodge that rents out it's space for events, My mom is the president of the ladies group there so i think it would be easier to rent. They have kicten (You must have a food hadlers card to go in there though) a stage, Karaoke machine and more! It also became smoke free this year! It will cost a bit to rent, but at least not thousands of dollars.

I wish there was something like this in the Bremerton/Silverdale, WA area...  :'( I swear my town is sooooo boring!! Even Chinatown Seattle is Blah...This cosplay cafe sounds like so much fun! (It's kinda expensive and takes a few hours to get down there by train, airfare is at least twice the cost of amtrak.....so sorry...wish I could help, but I can't!  :( )

Can we get a meeting location inside the mall posted on the first page, or anywhere?  I don't think I saw one reading through the last few pages.  It would suck to have everyone scattered around because we forgot to say where we wanted to gather.

If this thing actually gets going it would be nice to work in a cosplay cafe.

So, is there going to be a meet-up some time in the near future?  If not, I'd like to ask that it'd be after the 15th, but no later than the 19th, so that I can make it.

My parents say it's possible to use their backup restaurant shop for this. (Since it went out of business)
Maybe we can fix it up and make it work?
Its not far, near Lloyd actually.

Well finding a place zoned for food services and whatever else we would want, at a price that is right for the business, is the hardest part.  If you, your parents in this case, already own a location this makes it WAY easier!

My parents own this place actually. But the problem with this place is that its a bit beat up since it's pretty old.

However I'm confident that we can fix it up. But we have to work hard because it's unpredictable how good the business will be.

Well then, this just went from a 99% likelihood of not happen to around a 50% chance possibility of success (though I refer to actually getting to the point of serving someone, and not the overall success of the store.)  I hope new insight and progress continues to come forward in this project.  I'm Looking forward to a future meeting with a significant progress report, and an ideas and development discussion.

Well i have a idea for this to be easier to get ideas from everyone! I will make a meet up date as soon as i feel all better and ill bring a few boxes so people can write down there ideas and put them in the boxes and if you have uniform ideas or designs for the cafe you can do it when ever you want and turn them in to me or soryko when the meet up comes around. Nyaa~ :3
[/b]

So after catching up and reading everything...
We should have a meet-up date and actually attend! XD I'd be happy to meet up with KonekoKaulitz and design something. ^o^-

She's probably going to buy a new business place near Lloyd, and I'm pretty sure it was called "The Orient"
If you guys seen it,  that's probably the place where the Cosplay Cafe will be running their business from.

Being a coordinator makes you part of a family. Mine was a very small family of skycaps(~150ish). I'll share what I discovered from this experience: If you are part of this family, you will be loved...

You know, for the uniform for the maids you could take different maid outfits from different animes/mangas and choose one of those or mix and match. Like, let the maids choose which one they want to wear.
You could use like Mikuru's maid outfit from Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu or Shion's Mort Cafe outfit from Higurashi.

Is it bad that I laughed when I saw the Shion pic?  Seriously, I did one of those little snort-chuckle-things when I saw it.  I blame her facial expression...

I think perverts are going to be pooring in too o__o but we can maybe have security? like if they are being inappropriate with the maid that get 2 warnings then they get asked to leave?
[Btw this is Koneko]

@Mew - that's close to the Californian border, isn't it?  Well, at least we'll see you at Kumoricon, right?

@Squirrel - Depending on WHAT said perverts would do, I'd say screw the warning and kick 'em out right then and there.  I'd be up for doing security, too, since I doubt ALL of my time would go into coordinating...

If you want some help with ideas you should check out these cafes.
Look at their prices, food, games, maids, and how the building is set-up.
Then set a budget; I'd also recommend that doing something where, during a certain time (lunch, dinner, etc.) You have Cosplay time then you have maid time. Cosplay time is where the workers wear any cosplay or the cafe sets a theme. (Swim suit, Ninja, Teacher, Animal, etc.) and Maid time is where the workers wear the same Maid uniform.
Because if you stick with official uniform image it will help promote your cafe.
Here's a link to ALL of the cafes in Japan.
http://moeten.info/maidcafe/
http://www.royal-t.org/ (This maid cafe is in Cali) since they’ve been here this long they must be doing something right. lol

Here are the rules for all Maid cafes;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqOW_87_gNk

1. Do not touch a maid's body
2. No asking for a maid's phone number
3. No asking for a maid's email address
4. Don't infringe on a maid's privacy by asking what time she gets off work
5. Do not stalk or persistently pick up a maid
6. Don't linger outside the cafe waiting for her to come in or go out
7. No harming the employees, guests, or neighbors of this cafe
8. No taking photos of the maids or the interior and exterior of the cafe ( They charge $5 for a photo with a maid)
9. Don't bring outside food or drink into the cafe
10. No smoking on the stairs outside the cafe

Here are some Theme cafe videos;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5S0xA4V2tgc&feature=fvwrel
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0TOW1xTGMg&feature=related
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqGv0kR_yMk&feature=related
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOucsztZJSw

But really it's a lot of work. I tried doing one myself, but it was going to cost around $20,000 just to start. So you’re going to need a huge team, lol. I think the best thing to do is ask a cafe, bakery, etc. and see if you can team up with them and do a Maid cafe event, just to get a feel of how your team will be and how much you can take. Because opening a place is a HUGE thing to do, and takes months even years to get ready. I really wish you luck ^_^ because I would love to see this happen, I would even drive there and work. Portland, OR needs a place like this and I think it will be a lot of fun.

Well for one if you set an age limit that just put out there for the gerenal public that somthings up. A business will not put an age limit on there place unless their going to be ADULT themed; which you don't want to give off.

Also really Maid Cafes don't get as many creepers as you might think. Maid Cafes have become very faimly friendly, girls go more than guys now and there are eve couples going.

Also no matter what you do in life there's going to be creepers, trust me. Sides if you keep the uniform longer than knee length and your workers know how to just put on a show and not get to intamte you should be fine. I know tons of cafes where the girls wear very long skirts too. lol

These are Maid cafe workers here in the US and from what i've read and watched they haven't had any trouble with creepers.

Yep, or you can do both if the team is willing. You can do early in the day Cosplay; Anything goes the workers pick/ make their costume. Then for later in the day your designed/theme Maid uniforms.

Or you can make your uniforms more on the cosplay side like theses.

Thanks ^-^ lol I got the idea from the oldest and longest running Maid cafe in Japan. But the name escapes me XP lol In an interview he was talking about the cosplay and maid times and he said it brings in more people because they never know what to expect. I would also recommend longer hours, having a place open for the late night crowd will help bring money in.

From what I’ve seen most Maid cafes don't open till 11 a.m and I’ve started seeing some not closing till 2 a.m. This for Portland, OR is a good thing.

Well for the meet up I moved it for the weekend after next because this weekend i might be going to my home town. So i was wondering is the 26 ok with everyone? because if everyone can make it that would be awesome because we could talk about all of these ideas [Thank you BangBangNeko~!] and the maid outfits and other ideas.

Like what kinds of foods?
What drinks?
and allot more!


I hope everyone can make it <3

Please MSG me if you plan on attending so i can get everything set up and ready!

Also when you do come if it is possible maybe bring a lap top or note pad to write things down. C:

i have a quick question... do the maids really have to call the guys "master" and the girls "mistress"? just as a clarifyer. and all of this sounds like a brilliant idea! maybe we should have a couple fundraisers before the actual event... and if the seamstresses need any help, im more than happy to help out. (cut patterns, run short errands, that kind of thing.)

You guys could likely just rent out a venue to avoid the crazy upfront cost of actually starting a business.  Heck, maybe someone who is is one of the local schools could secure a room while starting a maid club or somefing, I dunno

Well, I know that if this idea were to be attempted at Clark College, the club charter would have to be worded in a way that would be beneficial to anyone who joins as well as the college.  Since it'd be a cafe-style club, mentioning that it's in preparation for learning and developing management skills, or something.  Also, (if it were to be at Clark), it would need to make an agreement with the anime club to allow the cafe "workers" to cosplay, since cosplay falls under the jurisdiction of anime.

I'm not sure how it works at other colleges &/or universities, but that's how it'd work at Clark College.  I'd also offer myself as the advisor, but I'm planning on being a student again this Summer (Fall at the latest), plus I'm currently advising for the maximum number of clubs that one can advise.

This is a good idea, though.

I'm not thinking of getting involved, but this is a really cool idea. If you guys want recipe ideas, try looking at the manga Kitchen Princess. They have recipes for all kinds of sweets in the back pages.

...it looks like I'd have to take the Yellow Line, then ride the 56 Bus.

Is Koneko aware of this?  The last I've heard, she hasn't made any mention about the cafe, and she hasn't posted since I first recommended this date.

should just like rent a place out for a day, do it like they do in the school festivals in animes that have a maid cafe during the cultural festival.

The kickstarter idea is a good one too. 

I dunno, the food industry is really low margin but yeah, it would be nice if someone really wanted to take ownership of this.

So, I've been thinking about this idea since I saw it about a month back, and I would like to head up another attempt at the idea.  I don't want anyone to get their hopes up, but it'll have a lot of things to work out before even a small scale monthy or weekly could be started.
I already attempted to get in contact with the original poster of the thread, but I couldn't get in contact, f anyone knows her, I would like to bring her in to help.

I'll be making a new thread on the subject soon, if anyone would like to get in contact with me my skype name is "pumpkin-hill" and I'll be at Anime Expo till late Monday night so I'll be on Skype most the time after that.
Anyways, end of post, I'll have a lot more info in the thread, along with who I am since no one really knows me here yet.

Lots of things to consider, I really like the idea of themes, of course personas, but there's still limitations due to money, and of course running a business.
I really love the ideas in this thread and those given to me by my friends, I want to move forward in my planning soon, but I'm holding off on a new (shiny) thread until I have enough planned that I won't disappoint people.  But anyways, Washougal Otaku, iirc you have experience with restaurants and management yes?  If there's an easier way to talk with you without the forum, I think you could give some valuable input.

So if anyone has any questions in the mean time, I can try to answer them.  Until I have a whole plan, it'd be too much of a bother to try to compile the details, but I can try to answer any specific questions (including regarding volunteering.)

This sounds quite interesting, I must admit. Are you trying to turn this into an official business, or just something "for fun" and not to make money?

If it's the first, if you're ever in need of a large group of themed costumes for support, I might be able to talk the Kashyyyk Base and Cloud City Garrison into making a troop at the cafe once it gets going. These are two groups of Star Wars costuming organizations (Oregon branches), one dresses as the "good guys", the others the "bad guys". Both are non-profit charity, but do usually ask for donations to Doernbecher's and other such organizations.
No, they're not anime costumes, but I thought I'd mention it. We do dress in screen-accurate Star Wars costumes, and sometimes it can be pretty neat to see a group of Jedi, or stormtroopers and Darth Vader, or even various pilots.

^ Personally, I'd prefer to see Star Trek characters and uniforms.  Either way the occasional diversity might add to the appeal factor for said cafe...

This seems like a super cool idea and i think you could make it work not turning a profit but fan service galore!

i don't know if you have done so yet but getting a facebook page started and if there is anyone good with web development (i know your out there people) start a web page for it and get donations to get started if we can spread the word enough might be able to get someone to donate a space, not many wealthy otaku's out there but i imagine there are a few... xD

just some idea's to get this project from dream to reality, i work nights so have good portion of the days free to work on stuff but no real skills just a fan... i like to cook though would be fun

Alright, I've delayed my reply quite a bit.
The Star Trek and Star wars cosplay. It wouldn't really be treating directly to the main customers of a cosplay cafe, but I am in no way saying it could never happen, maybe an event night or something if there's enough demand.
Yes it would be a business, as the original thread had said.
And to finalmonk, I think running on non profit could be extremely difficult, especially if they're paying/donating for it to start up, and it could fail.  I've been told to seek sponsorship from places such as FUNimation or other otaku-related companies that could take an interest in the advertisement.

Here's the biggest reason I've delayed this post, Kaulitz, the original poster of this thread, I had finally managed to get in contact with her(?) and as it turns out, she will still want to do it eventually, but after getting things in life in order (I suppose this wording sounds serious, but it's nothing serious.)
So I have to keep in mind I don't want to invade on her dream/idea.  I haven't been in contact with her since, if I was I would be asking if she minds if I try to do it or not. 
If she either gets back to me, or the fans show a really big interest in this, I don't know if I can push forward, but for now I'll keep planning.

Do you actually HAVE a BUSINESS PLAN? I, personally think that you could actually make a bit of money in Portland, but this page is a few years old and I haven't seen much more than fun ideas. write up a business plan, get a loan, find a reasonably priced building, and just do it. That's my advice.
What does man value more than life, yet fear more than death and mortal strife? What the poor have the rich require, and what contented men desire. What the mizer spends and the spendthrift saves, and all men carry to there graves.

That's why I said "occasional."

I completely agree with you, on the fact that running it completely non profit would end up being extremely difficult. I was more just trying to get a brainstorm going of how we could spread the word branch out from the forums... but getting sponsored sounds like a much more likely possibility.

also agree with lilyrosa, once Koneko has her life in order getting a structured business plan laid out and that people can get behind and set up some more meeting to actually figure out the logistics of this thing

also sorry for not posting in original post
