1. Cafeteria

Out of the two cafeterias, the cafeteria closer to IPMU and literally called “CAFETERIA,” does NOT accept cash. Instead, you can use two major Japanese IC cards, Suica or PASMO, which you can download as a mobile app and start using at once.

【How to order】

1. Choose what you eat from dishes displayed in the showcase.
   
2. Go to a counter where the food is served. There are 3 sections: combo-style dishes (First section of long counter), bowls and curries (in the middle) and noodles (in the end).
   
3. Take a tray and tell the server what you order. You can add side dishes in the showcase onto your tray by yourself. For the payment, place your card on the card reader at the end of the long counter. 
   
4. After you finish eating, return your tray and plates to the washing conveyor. There are trash buckets separated for leftovers, combustible waste (chopsticks) and plastic waste respectively.
