Welcome to the magical realm of Requiem: Coffee, Tea, and Fantasy, nestled in the heart of Anaheim, California. This delightful café invites all enthusiasts of fantasy, gaming, and delicious beverages to step into a vibrant universe where every sip and bite offers an experience. Located at 280 S Clementine St, Requiem stands out not just for its immersive atmosphere but also for its carefully curated menu that captures the essence of storytelling through flavors.
At Requiem, you'll find an impressive selection of specialty teas that blend innovative ingredients with comforting tradition. One standout is the Captain's Rose Earl Grey Creme milk tea, adorned with enchanting notes of blackberry and rose. Whether you prefer it steaming hot or refreshingly iced, this brew is a delightful odyssey for your palate, particularly with options for extra sweetness and alternative milks. Another magical potion to try is the Emerald Weapon Matcha milk tea, infused with buttery white chocolate and vanilla — a concoction that will transport you to a world of fantasy with every creamy sip.
The food options are no less compelling. I highly recommend trying the Inumaki Classic tuna mayo onigiri, garnished with tamago furikake, which bursts with flavor and makes an excellent snack for gaming sessions. For those seeking plant-based options, the Pop Star Vegan Kimchi onigiri combines a tangy kick with wholesome ingredients, perfect for the health-conscious adventurer.

Geeks paradise. Great for pictures sure but it's also just great for chilling. They have a literal tree you can climb into and get comfy. The pillows were sooo cushy. The place is a vibe. Came with friends and somehow MADE friends?? With your idea you can borrow a game an play I there. The "Make it so" lavender milk tea wasn't quite what I was looking for but still good. Potions are strong!!! Lots of sugar!! Had a gift shop too. Park in the building by the ice rink for validation from them. (2 hours) or there is 90 minite free parking on the street but those go quick. Also we had this ice cream thing that was amazing. Highly recommend this place.

I think I may have died and gone to nerd heaven! I am absolutely in LOVE with this fantasy themed cafe known as ‘Requiem’. Visited last night for the first time ever and was absolutely blown away! Picture this: a cafe open until 11pm that lets you play your own board games, card games, and chat with your buddies about anything at all! It’s a safe space for nerds to come and just nerd out to their favorite hobby card game or whatever they like. On top of that, they sell desserts and ‘potions’ which is code for beverages they look like something right out of an RPG game (think Final Fantasy, Elden Ring, etc). As a Resident Evil nerd, I especially appreciated the Leon Kennedy Golden Eggnog drink which was a delicious beverage that pays homage to RE4! My buddy and I played our first official game of Pokémon last night after having bought our first card decks last night. We figured, what better place to duel than at Requiem? I had a blast sipping on my eggnog drink, playing Pokémon, having an absolute blast all while watching Sonic Adventures 2 on the big screen monitor! If you are a nerd and need a safe and enjoyable place to embrace your inner nerd, please do yourself a favor and come on down to Requiem Cafe in Anaheim, California! It’s so worth the trip.

We Were just walking by on the street and got intrigued by the subtle decorations outside and since we had some free time we decided to check this place out. The inside was like nothing I've ever seen, with Anime on TV, somebody playing a game on another TV, and a handful of people playing either board games or gaming on laptops. The drink we had was delicious, and had pop rocks for some added fun. 10/10would recommend this place!

Unique and immersive fantasy themed cafe w forest, castle, spaceship, etc. Plenty of comfy spaces to relax and read, play games, or meet a friend or date. Really cute photo ops for the gram, too! very LGBT+ friendly More of a coffee shop with snacks than cafe. Very few food offerings though the heart-shaped waffles with cinnamon were delicious (a bit expensive at $6 for two small ones). Coffee was very good but slightly over priced. Most of all, the place is
