Maid Cafe

The return of the Honey Tea Maid Cafe!

Maid Cafe VIP - $55 before taxes/fees

Claim your seat at the proverbial table with our HTMC VIP bundle. These limited quantity bundles include a bit of merch to go along with your line skip and complimentary drink and dessert. Read on for more details:

  • These bundles are pre-con, online purchases only and will not be offered at the con itself. 50 bundles will be available for each day of the con, and will be in the add-ons section of our Eventbrite page (usually at the bottom of the listings and does not require a badge purchase at the same time in case you’ve already pre-regged)
  • Each bundle includes a plastic circle fan, a pen light, line-jump privilege, and a complimentary drink and dessert of your choice. Each bundle applies to only one person, so be sure to purchase and coordinate with friends if you want to sit together.
  • Those who purchase a bundle will need to bring the add-on QR code to the maid cafe at least 30 minutes before the time block they’d like participate in so the staff can properly process and prepare. The bundle should not be treated as a “place a reservation for over 2 hours from now” item.
  • The bundle only applies to the day purchased for and does not include a designated time slot. Refunds and carry-overs will not be available to attendees who fail to redeem their bundle on the day they chose.
