FUMA and HARUA preview Café Swarovski in Ginza: dates, reservations and the 90-minute limit

Swarovski brings its crystal aesthetic from jewelry to a Ginza table. Café Swarovski opens in Tokyo from October 28 through December 25, pairing green interiors with hanging crystals, seasonal decorations and desserts. Guests including &TEAM's FUMA and HARUA visited before the public opening. Preview photographs released yesterday show how jewelry, interiors and tableware share the same visual setting.

The celebrity preview and ordinary customer visits are separate arrangements; the photographs do not promise daily celebrity appearances. Located on the second floor of Jewel Box Ginza, 8-9-15 Ginza, Chuo-ku, the café operates daily during the announced period, prioritizes reservations and uses a 90-minute seating limit. The brand directs reservations to a dedicated TableCheck page. This is a seasonal café, rather than a newly established permanent restaurant or a public fan meeting.

Green tables, crystal decorations and the details visible in the photographs

FUMA and HARUA's preview photograph places the pair at a round green table with a matcha-colored dessert, a white sculptural cake, a tiered stand and green drinks. Raised Café Swarovski lettering, hanging crystals and flowers continue the palette behind them. This describes the photographed arrangement; it does not establish that everything on the table is sold as one set at one price.

The official page identifies the tableware as Signum, Swarovski's collaboration with German porcelain brand Rosenthal, also sold at the Ginza store. The venue additionally displays couture worn at the 2025 Met Gala, designed by creative director Giovanna Engelbert with inspiration from the swan emblem and that year's theme. The tableware and clothing displays offer another way to explore the space. The garments should not be mistaken for new pieces from this year's Met Gala.

Hideki Eto's desserts and the limits on a particular set

Hideki Eto of Daikanyama pâtisserie PAYSAGE created the menu. The official lineup includes Café Swarovski Set, Matcha Opera Set and Swan Cake Set. The Café Swarovski Set is limited to ten servings per day and comes with coffee or tea. That quantity applies to the named set, rather than a total of ten café customers or ten additional servings at each seating. A reservation and the availability of a specific set require separate confirmation.

Matcha Opera centers on layered matcha, while Swan Cake uses a white swan form associated with the brand emblem. These dessert sets also include coffee or tea. Their photographs help identify the products, but color and appearance cannot establish ingredients or allergens. Prices for the individual sets have not been verified here. Neither photographs, another city's café nor last year's menu should be used to infer this year's Ginza prices; check the options attached to the reservation.

Plan around the seating limit and separate last-order times

Announced daily hours are 11am–8pm, with final food orders at 7pm and drink orders at 7:30pm. The two cutoffs differ: an 8pm closing time does not mean every dessert or food item can still be ordered at 7:30pm. A 90-minute seating policy also does not establish that every late arrival receives 90 minutes beyond closing. Check evening bookings against both the reservation conditions and operating hours.

The brand states that reservations have priority and directs guests to the dedicated platform; it does not guarantee walk-in access on every date. To include the café in a Ginza outing, first check the date, party size and available times, then review the menu and dining conditions. Preview pictures convey the setting, while actual seats, daily availability and capacity depend on the booking information and venue. A celebrity's photographed visit cannot establish those details.
