In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'', {{Nihongo|Kissa Councel|喫茶カウンセル|Café Councel}} is unlocked after clearing [[Remix 1 (GBA)|Remix 1]], and can be accessed in the [[Medal Corner]]. Entering it initiates a conversation with the [[Barista]], who remains offscreen. He talks about various topics, usually regarding the player's progress in the game. The [[Barista]] can also allow the player to skip a [[Rhythm Game]] if they get three [[Try Again]] ranks in a row. Doing so effectively gives the player an [[OK]] rank on that game, clearing it, and allowing them to continue.

Notably, the [[Barista]] can no longer help the player skip games they are having trouble with—this is now handled by [[Rupert]], who also [[Coins|charges]] the player for this service.

*In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'', the [[Dog]] appears to have a girl employed as a waitress, with two customers also visible at the Cafe. This girl does a gesture when the player chooses to skip a game.

In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', completing a land allows the character that the player and [[Tibby]] met there to occasionally appear as a customer, meanwhile [[Saffron]] and [[Saltwater]] of the [[Gatekeeper Trio]] end up working at the Café as the [[Shop]]keeper and [[museum]] [[curator]], respectively.
