The meal prices are reasonable, the portions are sufficient, and the taste is generally good. The breakfast includes a variety of ingredients, the burger is standard, and the fish in the fish and chips is tender but the batter is thick. Overall, although it's not cheap, the taste is not bad and it's worth a try.
The atmosphere of the restaurant excites Harry Potter fans, making them feel as if they are in Hogwarts, which is quite appealing to customers who want to experience the movie scenes.

How many times in life can you dine at Hogwarts 😍? As soon as I saw the restaurant inside the Harry Potter theme park, I decided I had to have a meal here! As a Harry Potter fan, you must come and try it even if you're a Muggle~~
▪️Platform 9¾ All Day Breakfast with Drink
¥2300 (including drink) ❾¾
This is a dish almost everyone orders because the 9¾ design is just too iconic!! It's basically a standard Australian (English) brunch, and it's normally delicious. The food is simply seasoned and the portion is quite large, served with a choice of drink (forgot the options). I chose iced tea in a transparent cup that you can take home 😂
▪️Halloween Burger ¥2200
Just happened to visit before Halloween, there were some special menu items. I ordered one that didn’t look too strange. It tasted decent, better than expected, but it was just a standard beef bacon cheeseburger, served with fries and pickles (very American? in style).
▪️Fish and Chips ¥1800
At the time, I didn’t know why I craved fried fish and ended up ordering it by accident. The fish was quite tender but the batter was thick, and the addition of tartar sauce was a plus haha (I love tartar sauce). The rest was normal, and the whole portion needs to be shared, otherwise, one person would definitely get tired of it.
Overall, although the prices converted to Taiwanese dollars are not cheap, the portions are quite large. The food in such places is usually for photo opportunities, but I think the taste isn't bad. While I wouldn’t particularly want to eat it again, I recommend trying it once if you come here. The dining atmosphere is great, 2 stars for taste + 1 star for atmosphere.
Brace Face Review: The restroom is bright, clean, and tidy. Thumbs up 👍
The Food Hall is designed based on the scenes from the movies, and Harry Potter fans will be super excited when they come here. It's really like dining in Hogwarts! Since you're here, why not have a bite? Experience being a Hogwarts student 🧑🎓
We ordered:
Platform 9¾ Breakfast with a drink for 2300 yen. It includes a slice of toast printed with the name of the platform, sausage, two fried eggs, baked beans, hash browns, roasted tomato, and a lettuce salad, along with a drink. The portion is quite large, but the taste is just so-so.
Halloween Burger for 2200 yen. Seeing that it was a Halloween special, we had to try it. It contains ham and a burger patty, with a hard, black bun. Paired with the spicy sauce on the side, it was not bad. It also came with a pickled gherkin, which was a bit random.
Fish and Chips for 1800 yen. The fish batter tasted quite unique, and the fish itself was large, though getting a bit heavy to eat as we went on. It paired nicely with the edamame it came with, and the fries were soft.
The total was 6300 yen, and we were quite full. Considering the price and portion size in this location, I think it's acceptable. After all, it's a rare chance to experience the food of the wizards 😂.
