Imagination Cafe Computer
This content requires 
City Town.
It is currently available only on 
Apple Arcade.
City Town DLC will be released on other platforms in 2026.
The 
Imagination Cafe Computer is located in the 
Imagination Cafe in City Town. The player can open the Imagination Cafe and server customers by interacting with the Imagination Cafe Computer.
To open the cafe, press the Open Cafe button to begin serving customers! The Imagination Cafe can be closed at any time. It will automatically close if the player has served the maximum amount of customers for that day. The Imagination Cafe Computer is also the place to purchase certain ingredients using 
City Coins, which are earned by serving orders to customers.
Running the Cafe
To start receiving orders, the player needs to open the Imagination Cafe by interacting with the computer and opening it to receive customers. The player can also choose to close the cafe to send all customers away or after reaching their daily customer limit, but closing the cafe is not required.
The maximum daily limit for orders is 100 customers. That includes any canceled orders.
Taking Customer Orders
The customer is always on the other side of the counter. It is possible for characters who are currently the player's companion to come customers.
Customers can give a variety of kinds of orders! They may request certain flavors, certain foods, both, or just anything.
- If the player already has a food that fits their request, they should press
“I’ve got that ready.” Any dish displayed in this menu will satisfy that customer’s request. - If the player wishes to cancel the order, they should press
“I can’t make that right now.” While not recommended because it does mean one less satisfied customer for the day, this does not cause any long-term problems. 
Usahana will mention if the player has canceled orders recently if she is asked about how the Cafe is doing. Orders can only be canceled once every 10 minutes. - If the player does not have the item yet and is in the process of making it, they should press
“I’m working on it.”
Creating a Customer's Order
All orders are made at the 
Chef's Station where the player can craft all sorts of yummy treats, such as 
Mochi, 
Dango, 
Boba, and 
Rice Flour! Create a dish for the customer, or cook up a bunch at once to prepare for the upcoming day! Once the player is done, they must serve the treat to the customer using 
"I've got that ready." The customer will then give the player City Coin s as a reward and leave. When just starting with the cafe, Mochi rewards 2x City Coins and Dango rewards 3x City Coins.
Usahana has a Companion Ability that can give additional food when cooking at the 
Chef's Station, so it is recommended to always have her as a companion while filling Cafe orders. At higher levels, she has a higher chance at doubling food and can also give an extra City Coin for a filled order.
Rules for Filling Orders
- Customers do accept items already in the inventory if they match the requirement
- Boba awards the most City Coins, then Dango, then Mochi.
- Customers may request a specific food type and/or a specific flavor (or multiple flavors).
- Examples
- If a customer wants a Mochi that is "Sweet" then the player must create a Mochi using
Candy Cloud as its main ingredient. - If a customer wants a Dango that is "Sweet" then the player must create a Dango using at least 1x
Sweet Mochi — the second and third Mochi can be any flavor. - Any Boba made with at least 1x
Honeycomb does count as food with a "Sweet" flavor. (However, if customer specifically wants a Boba that is "Sweet", then the player should use 2x Honeycomb.)
- If a customer wants a
- Examples
- If the customer specifies only one flavor, they will accept any food type that can have it as a flavor.
- Examples
- If a customer wants an item that is "Rich" then the player can create any type of item using
Tofu as its main ingredient. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Boba using Tofu as its main ingredient — any modifiers can be added, unless otherwise specified by the customer.
- Dango using at least 1x
Rich Mochi — the second and third Mochi can be any type.
- Boba is never a "Creamy" item.
Coral Milk makes it a "Milk Tea" and not a "Creamy" flavor.
- If a customer wants an item that is "Rich" then the player can create any type of item using
- Examples
- Customers may name multiple flavors, but they will say "or" if they will accept any one of those flavors or "and" if it needs to include all of those flavors.
- Examples
- If a customer wants a Dango that is "Spicy and Magical," then the player must create a Dango using both 1x
Spicy Mochi and 1x 
Magical Mochi in their recipe — the third Mochi can be any flavor, not limited to only Spicy or Magical. - If a customer wants a Dango that is "Spicy or Magical," then the player can create a Dango using at least 1x Spicy Mochi or at least 1x Magical Mochi. It does not have to have both flavors. The second and third Mochi can be any flavor.
- If a customer wants a
- Examples
- If a customer wants a food with specific flavors included, they will accept the flavors being added in any order and amount.
- Examples
- If a customer wants a Dango and requests a Creamy Rich Pineapple Dango, they will also accept a Pineapple Creamy Rich Dango, a Rich Pineapple Creamy Dango, and so on.
- If a customer wants any food that is both Spicy and Sweet, they will accept a Boba made with 1x
Magma Bloom and any amount of Honeycomb.
- If a customer wants a
- Examples
- Foods with optional ingredients that are not the primary ingredient — also called modifiers — do not require the modifiers to be added unless the order specifically requires them.
- Items with flavors from event-only ingredients will only be requested during the related event or if the player has the ingredient or the items in their inventory.
- Examples
- The Confetti flavor requires
Rainbow Sprinkles from 
Happy Haven Days. - The
50th Anniversary recipes can only be used to fill general requests and are never specifically requested, even during the event.

Customer Approval Rating
One of Usahana's dialog options is to ask how the business at the Cafe is doing. The numbers of customers are approximate because different foods or not filling orders may affect the customer satisfaction. Customer satisfaction does not have any noticeable affect on the Cafe at this time.
