Genshin Impact: How to Reach the Coupon cafeteria in the Fortress of Meropide
The Fortress of Meropide in Genshin Impact is more like a community for exiles than a traditional prison. Here, convicts must follow rules and work to live comfortably, though slacking off is permitted occasionally at the cost of credit coupons. Thankfully, even those who work lightly are still fed, as the warden doesn't want to lose the valuable workers of the fortress.
The Coupon cafeteria is where people can get their daily meals. The Traveler and Paimon often visit this place because Paimon, the emergency food, needs her daily calories, even though the protagonist handles all the work. If players get lost while navigating the Fortress of Meropide, getting to the Coupon cafeteria in Genshin Impact is actually just a click away. This article will explain how.
## How to Get to the Coupon cafeteria in Genshin Impact

To reach the Coupon cafeteria in Genshin Impact, players simply need to press the Fortress of Meropide logo and click teleport. This will instantly transport Travelers to the administrative area where the cafeteria is located.
Another way is to use the teleport waypoint on the dormitory floor and then glide down to the administrative area.
However, for those seeking a more immersive experience, they can take a detour by riding the elevator, depending on their current location. There's no direct route to the administrative area from the upper level of the production zone. So, players must first ride the lift down to the lower level of the production zone.
Once at the lower level of the production zone, go to the western elevator and ride the lift up to the administrative area.
When the elevator stops, walk around the circular area of the Fortress of Meropide to reach the Coupon cafeteria on the northeastern side of the administrative area.
## Coupon cafeteria and welfare meals
Criminals in the Fortress of Meropide can get meals by spending credit coupons in the cafeteria. However, once a day, they can claim a free welfare meal. This ensures everyone gets at least one portion of food daily. But these welfare meals are like a gacha; people never know what they'll get. Sometimes, they might get lucky and claim a delicious box, while other times, it could be a suspicious bowl of soup. Those who break the "hidden rules" may even end up with suspicious - looking meats that could be dangerous after one bite.
Players can check their daily welfare meal by going to the inventory and selecting the Precious Items tab. Find the welfare meal and press use to reveal a dish and a fortune slip. The food box can be claimed by speaking to Bran the robot. Just like the fortress rules, only one welfare meal can be claimed per daily reset.
Once Travelers accumulate enough credit coupons by running errands or opening Genshin Impact chests, they can talk to the Coupon cafeteria supervisor and buy exclusive recipes and extra dishes to keep them energized during prison chores.
