What's the best time to go alone to these things? I have bad social anxiety and can't be comfortable if there are a lot of groups of people there. I'll feel like the kid sitting alone at lunch in highschool. I want to try Cafe Lu.

I miss cats cafe, they said they will reopen mansion but it's been like a year. That spot was truly the best. DD cafe is holding me over till cats come back.

It's less crowded around when they usually open up until 12 PM. Since it's less crowded, the girls will come sit and chat with you. I haven't been to cafe lu either so I'm also wondering how it is. But yeah if you want to go when it's less crowded and spend more time with the girls, go in the daytime because at night, there are more large groups so the place is louder and more crowded. I also get kinda nervous and awkward as fuck around people but I still love going to these places just to chill and talk to the girls. You'll be fine, I was super nervous when I first went too, but after a few visits, you're going to love it.

Just walk in grab a table, the other customers won't even know you are there.
My go to drink is the avocado smoothie. The Vietnamese coffee is like liquid Meth its by far the most potent coffee on the planet earth. I had a cup one time and never again. It took me a day and a half come down off of it. Just get a smoothie.
The girls will expect a couple of bucks each time they fill your glass. A 5 dollar bill will get you noticed and the girls will appreciate it.
There is absolutely no reason to get an anxiety at these cafes.

They're genuinely pretty friendly if you're chill and not creepy. Tip them at least a buck every round, ideally a couple bucks or a 5 if you can. If you really want to go when its calm go in the morning or early afternoon on a weekday. My first was DD's and it's my favorite, but having been to 369 once they were super cool and friendly there and it's a more affordable shop.

Which one do you like more and which is better to talk to the girls, and how crowded is it compared to DD in the morning? I went once when it used to be 269 but I didn't really like it and I was ignored. Is it better now if you go alone?

You will have a good time. It may be busy though.

I am not looking to work there just want to go as a customer.

My suggestion would be to go to 168 or the new 368 from 2 to 4 pm so you can see the shift change at 3.
