Entering Optimus Cafe, you are allowed to choose between sitting indoors or on the balcony, where you can get a picturesque view of the river, Nakanoshima Park and the stunning Osaka City Central Public Hall. Be aware that during busy hours you may not get the choice to sit outside, since the seats are limited.
The interior is thoughtfully designed, with counter and table seats tastefully adorned with earthy tones and eco-friendly materials, creating an inviting and mindful atmosphere that aligns seamlessly with the vegan philosophy embraced by the cafe.
The menu at Optimus Cafe unfolds as a vibrant tapestry of plant-based delights, showcasing the culinary team’s commitment to crafting dishes that are both ethically sourced and gastronomically pleasing. Whether you are a dedicated vegan or an adventurous omnivore, the diverse offerings ensure there is something for every palate.
Their menu includes breakfast, lunch and dinner items, which you can order depending on the time you visit. Their popular OPTIMUS Buddha Bowl consists of healthy, colorful and delicious vegetables and grains that will satisfy any hungry vegan or vegetarian customer.
Their golden brown Corn Frittos also deserve special praise. They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and can be dipped in a sauce to add some acidity to the flavor of the corn.
Their menu also includes dessert items, such as gluten-free muffins, chocolate cake, tiramisu, pistachio French toast, gluten-free cookies and granola soy milk yogurt. This is the perfect way to top off your meal for those with a sweet tooth and struggle to find vegan and gluten-free opinions in Japan. The muffin was moist and flavorful with a soft interior and perfectly baked exterior.
Optimus Cafe’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond its culinary offerings; it’s ingrained in every facet of the dining experience. The establishment provides a vegan culinary experience that is both enjoyable and health-conscious, catering to individuals without the use of animal-based ingredients like meat, fish, eggs, or dairy products.

The focus is on utilizing ingredients with minimal additives, with a proactive approach to incorporating locally sourced organic vegetables. Furthermore, all desserts are gluten-free, ensuring a safe and inclusive dining experience for individuals with gluten allergies.
As patrons savor their meals, the panoramic river view becomes a serene backdrop to the dining experience. Customers can dine while people-watching those at the park chatting on the riverside benches, running or biking. They can also wave to the occasional tour boat that passes by with smiling tourists waving back. The rhythmic flow of the water creates a soothing ambiance that enhances the pleasure of each bite. The calmness of this cafe contrasted with the bustling Namba and Shinsaibashi areas makes it a haven for those seeking some quiet and serenity in the city while on their trip.
