Read →Updated 2026-10-07A rundown café, an inheritance on the brink of closing, and five kemonomimi maids — each with a secret. Maid Cafe Simulator turns that opening into a first-person management sim where you mix the drinks yourself, count the change yourself, and carry the troublemakers out yourself (princess carry included).
The game launches on October 8, 2026 as a full release on Steam. This site is the manager's field guide: systems explained, launch facts verified, and every page built from the public record — the store page, the developer's own posts, and official screenshots.
What to read first
- Beginner guide — the first-shift loop, station routing, and the day-one checklist.
- Drinks & recipes — all 49 recipes, the three station types, and pour timing that survives rush hour.
- The five maids — bond stories, gifts, and how relationships raise your staff's abilities.
What kind of game this is
Maid Cafe Simulator is hands-on in a way most café sims aren't. Orders, pouring, receipts, change — every step runs through your own two hands in first person, and the maids' story runs beside the management grind: 13 story chapters, 36 bond stories, and 25 in-game texts per maid.
The goal above it all is three Maidchelin stars — judged by an inspector who is, by design, the toughest guest your café will ever seat.
