Visit these 5 Interesting Animal Cafes in Tokyo!
Have you ever sat down at a cute café or bistro, sipping on your coffee or savoring a cheesecake, and thought to yourself ‘Hm… What could make this experience better?’ Well, here’s a wacky idea, how about cute, furry, animals?
 

 
In fact, this idea really isn’t that wacky at all; having started with cat cafes, there has been a wide increase in Tokyo animal cafes featuring many other animals such as bunnies and rabbits, owls, and even goats! If you’re wondering where to find animal cafes in Tokyo, your search ends here! Here’s a list of animal cafes you can visit in Japan, some of the top animal cafes in Tokyo.
 

1) Cat Cafe Asakusa Nekoen

 

Starting the list of top animal cafes in Tokyo is a classic cat café, and an adorable on at that! Start your wild tour of Tokyo’s animal cafes with Asakusa Nekoen. This is a comfortable and relaxing place to hang out for a while amongst cute cats and kittens. The owner and staff are quite helpful and speak fluent English, so tourists won’t have communication problems. All the cats here are rescues, and are well maintained and clean. You will have to pay by the hour, and can also buy cat treats for extra cost to feed them.

 

2) Fukuro Sabo Owl Café

Owls! Don your wizarding robes and slap on a pair of glasses before heading to this café to feel like Harry Potter for a little bit. This is one of the unique animal cafes you have to experience! Adorable owls galore: you can pet them, feed them, and even hold them! The owls are well cared for and the staff are friendly and speak English. You can stay here for an unlimited amount of time, and you can enjoy your time at one of the best owl cafes in Tokyo with a cup of herbal tea.

 

3) Sakuragaoka Café

 

There aren’t goats running around wild, but rather two special ones named Chocolat and Sakura that seem happy and friendly. It’s a great place to relax and enjoy a bit of coffee with a friend, while staring at cute goats! They usually stick their heads out to try and nibble at whatever they can reach, so you can give them a little petting.

 

4) Usa Café Mimi

 

If the sight of rabbit just make you go ‘aww’ then this is a unique animal café you have to experience in Tokyo. With friendly, adorable rabbits running around, this is one of the top animal cafes in Tokyo, and we can see why! The rabbits here are allowed to roam around freely (i.e. not in cages) and are laid-back with humans. The charges are per half hour, and the one hour fee includes a beverage of your choice from their variety of coffees and teas.

 

5) Kotori Café Omotesando

Adding to the variety of Tokyo animal cafes is Kotori Café Omotesando, which is essentially an aviary where you can have coffee! There is no missing what it is, as the entire front window is one of the four glass aviaries built inside the café. The species of birds here vary from white cockatoos, to canaires, parrots, lovebirds, and many more breeds of various sizes and colors. There is no charge for being here, but you will be expected to order at least one drink. You can also ask for a brief petting session which would be chargeable.
