If you live in Melbourne, you might have heard about the recent Grand Opening of “どきどき Station” !
どきどき Station (Doki Doki Station) is pretty much a mobile maid and butler café that offers not only entertainment, games, performances but also serve yummy desserts and beverages (whilst wearing maid / butler outfits of course)

I was lucky enough to be invited to the Grand Opening by the manager, Angela ♥
She’s a good friend of mine, so when Angela asked if I would like to come along to write a blog post for どきどき Station, I was pretty excited! I have never experienced an actual maid cafe before, so the only expectations that I had were based off the internet/japanese shows, which was mainly: cute girl in a maid outfit serves you yummy food!
Got to get a photo taken with some of the cute maids ♥
Thank you to Manager Angela for inviting me over to the Grand Opening!
Were my expectations met? Definitely!
There were plenty of sweet, cute maids present, including the beautiful Phuju!
I think I was able to speak to nearly all of them, as they were sweet enough to start up conversations with us whilst we were waiting for our food to arrive. We were also entertained half way with an enjoyable dance performance of ‘Secret – Shy Boy’ from maid Maiko! I also believe that apart from the food&drinks menu, they also had a game / service menu in which you could choose certain activities to do whilst at the café. (which I didn’t get a chance to do)
Phuju being adorbs and drawing 'the most artistic thing' on my plate <3
Vu and I shared the 'いちごKiss" plus an ice-tea and cappacino ! (Cute usagi picture down by Phuju!)
どきどき Station is still in their early stages, so I can’t wait to see how big this becomes! And hopefully they’ll be able to open in an actual restaurant/café more than just once a week when that time comes!!
So yes, if you’re free on a Sunday, definitely check them out!
And head over to their Facebook page to find out more information ♥

Yes it is :D
so cute^^ i wanna go, but im too busy these day D:
Yeahh :( You can go in the holidays!
I want to visit one of these places someday! And since it’s nearby you, you won’t have to go to Japan or anything to experience this sort of thing, lucky you! When you said ‘butlers’ I was anticipating pictures of butler men, and for a second, thought Vu was a butler since you guys blended in with them in the pictures!
Ahahahah :P I didn’t get a picture of them – cos I uh ..forgot hehe.
And yeahhh, I still wanna go to one in Japan though! Although I know they’re quite pricey :(
Waaa maid café! It’s so cute with the maid uniforms ^^ Too bad you didn’t get to snap a pic of the butlers… ^///^
I’m so sorry it’s been so long since I last commented here. Because I like your blog so much, hehe. But it’s been busy. Still happy you keep making these cute posts x

ryc: I’m just starting to think clothes aren’t made for real people. But on the other hand, when you finally something that’s just so perfect, you feel better about buying it, because you put in all the effort.
Ahaha yess! I didn’t realise cos ..I ..went for the girls :’D hehe
And it’s all good! I’ve been busy lately too :( I hardly check blogs nowadays ..unless I have some free time hmm.
Ah, so cool! I’ve never been but I want to! I remember there was a maid cafe in my city but I don’t think it lasted very long. lol :(
I want to work at one! haha but it’s probably not as glamourous as I make it out to be.
All the maids look cute! I love how Angela wears a red wig too.
Ahaha! I think you’d look super cute as a maid! You could attract all the customers ;D hehe
That’s a really good idea and it turned out sooo cute ♥♥
I would love to go there one day, but unfortunately I’m living in Germany. lol Nevertheless, love the idea (^_^)
Aww, that’s why you should come to Melbourne hehe <3 !
lol I’ve actually always wanted to go to a maid cafe! I love love love the little maid outfits. Next time I pop down to Melbourne I’ll definitely make sure I pay this cafe a visit haha! and the food looks sooo pretty <3
Yess, you should definitely try it out if you’re in Melbourne! I really wanna go to one in Japan haha :P
awh such cute photos! i wish there was a maid cafe where i am :p
this is such a cool idea. I’ve never been to a maid cafe but i want to when I go Japan next year. The picture phuju created is so cute haha.
I think i’d just feel super awks cause I’m used to being the one serving people haha!
Ahah maybe you should apply to be a maid then ;)))
This is such a cute little restaurant! :O so asian but cute! haha Would love to visit it one day when I pop by Melbourne :)
