To clear Maid Cafe Simulator main story mission 6/7, you must step outside the cafe at night and speak directly to the reviewer standing on the street. Even if your cafe meets the required level threshold and you have unlocked the required drink recipes, the special guest will not enter your shop during standard daytime service until you trigger this conversation after dark.
How to Complete Main Story Mission 6/7
Players frequently get stuck on this objective because the quest text asks you to receive a review from an incoming special guest, leading many managers to wait behind the counter during open hours.
To resolve the objective and trigger the review sequence, follow these exact steps:
- Meet the base conditions shown in your quest tracker. Community players encountering this mission note having cafe level 5 or higher and at least 8 unlocked drink recipes.
- Complete your daytime service and wait until the cafe closes for the night (after dark).
- Do not immediately go to sleep. Walk through the front entrance and step outside onto the street.
- Locate the reviewer NPC standing right outside the cafe exterior.
- Interact with him to trigger dialogue. He will state that he plans to visit your establishment tomorrow for an official inspection and will ask you to prepare a specific drink.
- Open the cafe the following day and serve the requested drink when the reviewer arrives to receive your review and advance the story.
Why the Special Guest Does Not Enter During the Day
The main story missions in Maid Cafe Simulator guide your progression through 13 chapters, leading up to formal Maidchelin inspections. During mission 6/7, the game scripts the reviewer's initial appearance as an after-hours dialogue event rather than an ordinary customer arrival.
If you remain inside making drinks or end the day inside without checking the street at night, the reviewer's visit flag remains unactivated, leaving the quest log stalled.
Troubleshooting Demo Save Glitches
If the reviewer does not appear outside after dark despite fulfilling all level and recipe requirements, check whether your current playthrough originated from the Steam demo.
On the Steam community forums, players have documented progression soft-locks in early story chapters (such as quests stalling indefinitely on evening wait states) when continuing from imported demo saves. If your save is flagged with [Demo] and an objective fails to update after multiple in-game days, starting a fresh save file in the full release is the primary workaround reported by players until further hotfixes are deployed by developers Accelix and SCON.

When you interact with the reviewer outside at night, he informs you that he will return the following day for a cafe review and specifies a particular drink you need to prepare for his inspection.
What are the requirements before the reviewer can be triggered?
According to players who reached this point, your cafe needs to reach at least Level 5 and you must have unlocked a minimum of 8 drink recipes before the review event becomes available.
