My Hero Academia is opening a cafe in Japan, and the menu features an All Might margherita pizza. The pop-up locations will serve food and drinks inspired by the anime’s superheroes, with each dish tied to a character’s quirks, costume, or personality. The cafe opens October 16 in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Sapporo, with Osaka following on October 22.

The main attraction is the ¥2,090 (around $13.28) pizza box, which lets visitors choose from character-inspired pizzas. The cafe offers four new pop-up cafes across Japan, each running for a limited time with reservations available through the official website.

The All Might Margherita

The All Might margherita is the most visually impressive item on the menu. His signature smiling face is printed onto the cheesy topping.

Deku’s pizza is topped with basil cream and arugula, reflecting his costume’s hood and cape. Bakugo’s pizza combines meatballs and spicy curry, with crisp pastry and mashed potato details modeled on his explosive powers and fiery costume.

Todoroki’s gorgonzola and pepperoni pizza represents the two sides of his Half-Cold Half-Hot Quirk. His father’s bacon and chili tomato pizza is inspired by his Hellflame Quirk.

For dessert, Uraka’s pizza comes topped with chocolate, marshmallows, vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and a pink sauce. The cafe describes it as a sweet treat.

Drinks and Desserts

The drink menu runs seven themed hero sodas, each priced at ¥990 (around $6.30). They include:

  • Deku’s mint and muscat soda
  • Uraraka’s peach soda topped with cotton candy

Each drink comes with a coaster featuring the hero it represents. Fans can also pick up merchandise featuring newly drawn art, including badges, acrylic stands, keychains, pouches, stickers, and clear files.

The Full Menu

The cafe’s themed menu goes beyond pizza and drinks. Donuts are inspired by younger versions of Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki. Fries are served for Uraraka, and buffalo wings are offered for Takami.

The themed hero drinks round out the meal. Fans can wash down their lunch with a soda matching their favorite character.

Locations and Dates

Tokyo, Nagoya, and Sapporo open October 16. Osaka follows on October 22. Each location runs for a limited time, with reservations available through the official website.

What We Make of It

This is a pure delight. The All Might margherita pizza is the star, but the whole menu is built with care. Each dish ties to a character’s quirks, costume, or personality.

The prices are modest: ¥2,090 for the pizza box, ¥990 for each drink. That makes this a lunch that rewards fans who plan ahead.

The reservation system is the only barrier for anyone heading to Japan this fall with a trip planned.

A Year of Anime Cafes

My Hero Academia is not the only anime getting a food-themed collab this year. Chainsaw Man is opening an IRL Reze cafe with anime-themed food on October 1.

The Verdict

The All Might margherita pizza is the highlight, but the full menu earns its place. The donuts, fries, and wings offer variety for those who want a snack rather than a meal.

Each dish carries a reference to a character’s quirks, costume, or personality.

This is a lunch worth planning around. If you are in Japan this fall and a fan of the show, the reservation system is the only barrier. The food is the draw, and the food delivers.
