Robot barista makes and serves coffee in Tokyo cafe

Travel agency H.I.S Co has opened up 'Henn na cafe' in Shibuya, Japan where the coffee is made and served by the sole staff member - a robot!
Posted by: admin , February 5, 2018
  • Travel agency H.I.S Co has opened up a cafe in Shibuya, Japan where the coffee is made and served by the sole staff member – a robot!
  • Like other places in Japan, you pay for coffee at a vending machine, but this time you take your ticket (which has a QR code) to be scanned by the robot inside Henn na Cafe (Weird Cafe).
  • A cup of coffee costs 320 Yen (US$2.90), but the braggadocio is free, with the robot claiming that it “can brew coffee better than the human beings down the road”.
  • However, if you’re in a rush, the robot reportedly takes 4 minutes to make and serve a cup of coffee, but at least it cleans up afterwards!
  • According to a spokesperson from H.I.S, the cafe only needs one staff member, aside from the engineer that maintains the robot.
  • H.I.S also owns the Henn na Hotel, where robots look after guests.
