Square Enix has revealed plans to establish permanent retail and dining spaces in both the United States and Japan. The upcoming Square Enix Cafe & Shop locations are scheduled to open in Los Angeles and Shinjuku, Tokyo, during Spring 2026.
These venues will combine a themed cafe experience with a dedicated merchandise area. The cafe sections are designed to offer menu items inspired by various Square Enix intellectual properties, while the adjoining shops will stock a broad range of official products.
The Los Angeles branch will be situated at 316 E 1st St., Los Angeles, California 90012. Operations for this location will be handled by J-Pop Culture Cafe Inc. In Japan, the Shinjuku site will be located within the PASELABO TOWER, occupying the first, second, and third floors. This Tokyo based venue will be operated by NEWTON CORPORATION.
While the general opening window has been set for the first half of 2026, more specifics are set to be confirmed at a later date.
