Kafe is a Rainbow Six Siege map located in Moscow, Russia. It was included in the initial map pool for the game, alongside Bank, Chalet, Consulate, Clubhouse, Hereford Base, House, Kanal, Oregon, and Presidential Plane.
It is one of the most-played maps in the game, with the initial version of it getting a rework in June 2019. Following its rework, Kafe was included again in the professional map-pool of the Rainbow Six Siege esports scene.
Kafe - map structure
Kafe Dostoyevsky is a huge map. The Kitchen bombsite is located in the basement area, which can be used by defenders to move freely around the map. Three different stairs — known as red, white, and main —connect the basement with the ground floor, although only both red and white also connect to the second floor.
The roof is frequently used by attackers to get in the building by the skylight, or by destroying one of the two hatches located there.
Due to the map’s dimensions, defenders can use that in their favor to hide. Kafe is also known for its soft destructibility, which offers attackers the chance to play vertically. Operators like Valkyrie and Mozzie are also used frequently, as the map's destructibility gives them the chance to pre-place C4’s or to provide their teammates with game-changing information.
