The official Pokemon Cafe in Tokyo has announced it’ll now be taking “same day reservations” at the location itself.

Before the announcement was made, customers were required to make reservations through the cafe’s official website at least one day in advance, as the cafe doesn’t accept walk-ins. Now, if there are any reservations canceled on the day itself, those seats would open up to customers who happen to be at Pokemon Cafe on a first-come-first-served basis. We still highly recommend tourists planning to visit Pokemon Cafe to make a reservation in advance.

Details on same day reservations can be found below.
