Sakura Miku Cafe 2021 Menu and Merch
For me, one of my favourite Cafe collaborations are the Sakura Miku ones – so much pretty, colourful food dishes, and an abundance of gorgeous cherry blossom-themed character merchandise to “ooh!” and “ahh!” at. Of course, this year’s cafe looks to be equally as wonderful as last year, and here are the newest updates in regards to food, drink and merch! Make sure to check out our previous coverage to find all the info you need about the cafe!
