JELLY JELLY CAFE is a board game cafe chain
in Japan where you can play board games from all over the world whenever you want to play.
At JELLY JELLY CAFE, we have board games with simple rules for beginners and hardcore board games for enthusiasts. Everyone is welcome to come and enjoy board games, regardless of experience, age or gender. Come on by for some fun and a welcoming atmosphere!
What's the cafe like?
JELLY JELLY CAFE's maximum capacity is 30 people. On a usual weekday we are visited by students, with the evening catering more to couples and friend groups. Regardless of the time, make a booking and come share in the enjoyment! We have visitors from all over the world. You can choose and play board games straight from our large selection, or bring your own games from home.
Can I play games even if I don't speak Japanese?
Yes! We prepared a guide for finding language independent board games and booking a table if you don't speak any Japanese. You can find the guide here:
Playing language independent games
What if I get hungry or thirsty?
While we don't permit outside drinks, you're allowed to bring in food. You're also free to leave midway to buy food, bring it back, and resume your game while you eat. Please take good care of the games while eating. Each cafe has a drink menu to choose from and admission includes one free drink.
Can I come alone?
"I wanna play board games! But I'm alone." It's not a problem!
At JELLY JELLY CAFE, we host events you can enjoy with other people every week.
Whether you are new to board games or by yourself, you can join in and experience the fun. Navigate to the events page to find a suitable event to sign up for - we hope to see you there!
