Train Cafe in Akihabara
After all the meido, butlers, schoolboy cafes, what else can Akihabara offer to their otaku crowd? A train cafe featuring waitresses dressed like train conductors – very cute indeed.
Little TGV is a newly opened cafe in Akihabara that catering to trainspotters’ every delight. But I’m pretty sure these very cute conductors are sure to attract otaku as well. (*ï¼¾-ï¼¾*)
Instead of the usual meido cafe greetings “Welcome home, master”, these kawaii conductors will greet you with “Thank you for boarding our train.”
Customers enter the establishment by paying 500 yen for an old-style train ticket, which a waitress uses a hole punch to permit entry, just as station attendants once did at ticket gates across Japan.
Items on the cheaply priced menus also have a distinct train theme, like Loop Line Fried Onion Rings and Yamanote Line cocktails, named after the arterial routes that run through Osaka and Tokyo.

I have a great doujin image that train otaku would love ^.^
@ Spyhunter: that image is hawt.
