We have talked about animal cafes before on my blog (the cat cafe in Shibuya). However, have you heard of the owl cafe? In Asakusa, there was a small cafe with many different kinds of owls and a few other small animals called Owl Cafe Asakusa. While the cafe seems to be no more, there are several other owl cafes around Tokyo. This post will give you an idea of what an owl cafe is like in Japan!
Most animal cafes charge an admission fee or a fee for how long you stay, but they provide free drinks. This was the same way. We paid a small entrance fee and then had our choice of a free drink inside.
There were so many owls! Some you could pet and others were less friendly. Most were sitting on a little roost just relaxing, but some were flying around freely.
The ones I pet were so soft and seemed to be used to humans petting them.
There were also a few special animals there like otters, some turtles, and other types of birds. We spent about an hour inside looking at the different owls and other animals. It is definitely a really fun experience!
If you like animal cafes, check out my other post about Cat Cafe Mocha, as well. I hope you’ll visit an animal cafe on your next trip to Japan! It is an extraordinary experience.
