【フクロウカフェ・銀座店】銀座駅 徒歩約3分!癒しの空間をお届け by フクロウカフェもふもふ

期待をはるかに上回る楽しさでした~!!

Reviewed by: Cha, 2022/09/07

囲いなど一切ない空間に、かわいいフクロウちゃん達が20羽以上いました。
大きい子や小さい子、みんなとっても大人しくて、よく慣れています。
お店の人に教わって、頭やくちばしをナデナデすると、気持ちよさそう~な顔をしてくれました。
触り心地は、店名の通り、『もふもふ~』。
お店の人が、フクロウの生態やエピソードなどをお話ししてくださったり、途中で肩や腕にも乗せてくださり、1時間まったく飽きずに夢のような時間でした。
写真。動画も取り放題です。
あれだけフクロウちゃん達がいるのに、動物の匂い一切なし!
犬猫アレルギーの息子も、まったく平気でした。
ぜったいに、また行きたいです!

Reservations for an Owl Cafe' Experience in Ginza

Feeding adorable owls... nothing like it! Highly recommend

Reviewed by: Ryusuke , 2019/12/28

It’s my second time visiting, this time around I was able to feed them with chopsticks! - a wonderful hands-on experience. The staff were friendly and helpful as always, willingly helping me taking pics. Reservation ahead is not a requirement but recommended as it does get busy. The owls all have different owl-nalities, and was a joy observing how they interact with one another and with the guests. Highly recommended for all ages, especially families with young children

Reservations to Meet Adorable Bunnies at a Rabbit Cafe' in Tokyo

So Sweet

Reviewed by: Deys, 2019/08/30

I love bunnies and it was nice to interact with these sweet creatures. There were about 9 rabbits in cages. Two were let out to roam around and you could open the door to pet and feed others while they were in their cages. The space is small, but no problem getting to interact with the bunnies.

Reservations for an Owl Cafe' Experience in Ginza

Great activity for families with children!

Reviewed by: Ryusuke , 2019/07/15

We were lucky to be the only guests for our reservation time, and had a wonderful time meeting with all the owls, taking many pics, interacting with them.

Unless you’re a vet or a zookeeper, we haven’t seen anyone allowed to come in contact with owls in the US. So it was a rare and a memorable experience for all of us.

The manager was friendly and very knowledgeable. She’s taken selfies for us, with owls atop of our shoulders and heads! We were impressed how quiet they are when they fly across the room..

Time flew by fast, as we’ve all had a great time. At the end of the session, we got to vote for the favorite owl on the chart.

It’s a cute cozy place tucked in midst of busy Ginza district, a great activity for families with kids, especially on a day when it’s raining and get limited on outdoor activities. Highly recommend!

An Exciting New Experience!!!

Reviewed by: Anastasia, 2019/05/25

Coming into close contact with eleven owls is definitely a weird but interesting experience!!
The smaller ones especially are very cute with their intense stare. It doesn't happen often but lovely to see how they interact by cuddling and kissing each other. The owner is helpful in answering any questions about the owls as well. We end up taking many gorgeous photos!!

癒されました(#^.^#)

Reviewed by: まさまさ, 2019/05/01

とても可愛いフクロウ達でした。
お勧めは「エサやり体験」。別途@500円必要ですが
その価値あり!!
直接あげたり、腕に乗せて撫でたりって感じで、超可愛かったです。
フクロウそれぞれ性格が異なり、かまってちゃんの「あずきちゃん」や、とってもおとなしい「ぼぶさん」などなど。
是非皆さんも癒されに行ってください(^^)/

Comments from activity operators

ご来店ありがとうございます。
ふくろう達と楽しい時間をお過ごしいただけた様で、とても嬉しいです。
エサやり体験はお時間限定ですが、ふくろうさんとより仲良くなるのにぴったりのオプションです。
可愛いだけでなくお肉を食べる猛禽らしさも見られるのもおすすめポイントです☆
ぜひまた、みんなをもふもふしにいらして下さいね!!

Reservations for an Owl Cafe in Harajuku

Amazing

Reviewed by: Cayasha, 2019/04/08

I booked this activity for my first full day in Toyko. It was easy to find even though I wasn't used to navigating Tokyo yet and very close to the Harajuku Station. The experience was amazing. You could tell that the staff loves the owls and is very invested in their well being.

Comments from activity operators

Thank you for visiting.
We are happy that you enjoyed the time with the owls.
Close to Harajuku Station you can see the Meiji Jingu no Mori from the shop.
Please come whenever you want to see the owls.
We look forward to seeing you again.

So Cute and Fun!!!!!!!

Reviewed by: mrconte93, 2019/02/11

The cafe was a little hard to find (it was raining the day we went) but, once there it was amazing!!!!! The owls are so CUTE and very chill. (I think they are used to people by now). Chai was my fav only because he was the chillest and, during the petting demonstration/owl introduction, he looked the happiest to be getting pets. Would definitely do again.

  • Chai is the tan on in the middle

Comments from activity operators

Thank you for visiting.
There are three owl cafes in Harajuku, and the closest thing to the station is "Owlvillage Harajuku".
The chai is the youngest in the shop and it is very sweet.
Please come and see us if you want to see everyone again.
We look forward to your visit.

Cute owls!

Reviewed by: Serine, 2019/01/28

Very cute owls! There were two new ones which we were advised not to touch because they weren't used to people, but the ones we patted were very soft!

The only thing I would like people to note is that it's not so much a 'cafe' as they only have bottled water available, but still a lot of fun!

Great Owl Cafe

Reviewed by: Dominique, 2018/01/31

This owl cafe is nicely located, though a little hard to find since it's up a staircase off a side street. The waiting area with beverages was welcoming, and the staff were friendly. The area with the owls was brightly lit, and because of the windows it felt like a nice location for the owls to live. A great experience overall.

We reserved to meet with the owls ahead of time, which made things easier. The staff were very kind and are good with communicating in English. The owls were, of course, my favorite part! I got excited when we held them. Would come back to this particular owl cafe, when I come back to visit Tokyo.

The Owls were great!

Reviewed by: Dr Krista Leicht, 2017/08/15

I took my two daughters, ages 12 and 13 to the owl cafe this afternoon. We had an excellent time.

When we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and seated at a traditional Japanese table with floor cushions. There were colouring materials and reading materials for our use.

We were served our choice of drinks that were included. They advised us of our entry time into the owl room, which was about 15 minutes after our arrival. This gave us time to drink tea, and familiarize ourselves with all of the owls that we could see through the glass walls of the owl room. Pictures on the wall helped us to match the owls to their names, and read about their species and other facts.

When our turn came, we were helped to disinfect our hands, then welcomed in to the owl room. Inside, the owl caretaker walked us through how to best touch and interact with each of the owls. We were encouraged to take pictures and assisted to set up our shots so they turned out well. We were helped to hold as many of the owls as we wished. We stayed inside the room until we felt that we were finished, then returned to our table to chat. We did not feel rushed at all. Before leaving, one of the staff gave us some beautiful fans with pictures of the owls on them.

It was a really fabulous experience! The owls were all friendly, as were the staff. I would highly recommend it, even for those who do not particularly like birds, like myself. I found it to be a very lovely and moving experience. Do try it!

Real Owls!!!

Reviewed by: howard, 2017/07/01

We had so much fun being around the owls! You can actually pet (gently) the owls on the back of the head and have them perched on your arm, shoulder or on top of your head! Just beware of the possible poop! The room is small and cozy and you have to climb 5 flights of narrow stairs but it's worth it to be around these amazing animals. The variety of different owls is also impressive as they have from very small to large owls of different types. The only thing is it's not a cafe, don't expect food or hot drink like coffee. You do get a drink, but it's just a cold small bottle of green tea or lemonade. Overall my family loved it!

【フクロウカフェ・銀座店】銀座駅 徒歩約3分!癒しの空間をお届け by フクロウカフェもふもふ

有意義な癒しの時間でした。

Reviewed by: おりょうさん, 2017/05/04

友人と二人で参加しました。
銀座駅を出て徒歩3分程の、大通りから一本裏手に入った場所にあります。目線より少し上に看板が出ています。
1時間ごとの入れ替わり制となっているようで、少し早く着いた私たちは店外で予約時間まで待ちました。店内は約6畳ほどで、10羽のフクロウが待ち構えていました。
お茶をしながらフクロウを観察というより、みっちり触れ合うことができるお店です。
最初にフクロウの接し方について説明を受け、1時間のセッションがスタートします。
最初は人形かのように微動だにせず、じっと固まっているだけでしたが、十数分程触れ合っていると元気よく飛び回る子や、人にどんどん近づいてくる子、ひたすらに眠る子など様々な個性を垣間見ることができます。
丁度1年に一度の羽の生え代わりシーズンらしく、はげちゃびんになっている愛らしいフクロウがいました。
定員さんは常に気を使ってくださり、肩に乗っけてくれたり、写真を撮ってくれたり、個体別にどのような特徴があるのかなどを細かに説明してくださいました。
なによりモフモフなフクロウ達に癒された1時間でした。

  • 仲良しさんなのか、毛づくろいをしています。
