The Manga Café is an original Japanese concept that dates back to the late 70s. It is a friendly, affordable place, an atypical concept store, which brings together an impressive library, a shop, a video game area and a food corner with drinks and bento box. The principle is simple, you pay for the time spent. It’s a very affordable Parisian activity, since 1 hour of presence costs only €3 or €4.

THE READING AREA (LIBRARY) OF THE MANGA CAFÉ

It has the largest manga library in France with more than 18,000 references . The Manga Café is enriched every week according to new publications and releases.

Does your child or teenager want to spend some time there? A simple registration at the reception desk and then you pay for the time spent. The 1st hour of reading costs €3 in off-peak hours and €4 in peak hours, then any additional hour costs €1.50. A budget that remains very reasonable.
