This was without a doubt one the highlights of my visit to Japan! Truly amazing and beautiful, so many owls of varying sizes, plumage and colours. I should also add - this is NOT a cafe as such, there is no food or drinks on offer, so the name is a little misleading. When you book, you get 45 mins in the company of many owls (I'm guessing ... maybe 20-30 owls?). Owls are sensitive birds and you have to be VERY quiet, no sudden movements and you must follow the concierge's directions carefully if you wish to touch them (with one finger, on the head above the eyes only). There are seats and instruction booklets outside the venue, I strongly recommend you look through the booklet while waiting to be admitted. The venue is not large - two rooms, beautifully decorated, and many owls on perches in both rooms. Initially it's quite daunting - so many owls! You are allowed to choose two owls to interact with (one at a time), it's so hard to choose, they're all adorable! I chose two of the larger owls - Gorilla (beautiful female owl, very calm!) and Mr President (amazing 'eyebrow' feathers!). Being larger owls with larger claws, I had to wear a leather glove on my hand. The concierge placed the owl on my hand and because they are large (1.5kg) and I'm not a big person, a wood block was placed under my hand so I could rest my hand on it. Being up close to an owl is amazing!! The concierge takes photos of you (you can also take your own photos) and you can sit with the owl for as long as you like. When you're ready, the concierge will remove the owl and bring your 2nd owl to perch on your hand. The biggest owl, Takoyaki is 3kg (so gorgeous!) and the smallest owl I saw, Shrimp, a mere 60g, wasn't much bigger than a fist, too cute! Each owl has a name plate above them with their weight, DOB and type of owl. Some owls have 'Baby' labels above them, and some have 'Break Time' labels while they're resting. The venue is beautiful, the owls look incredibly well cared for, classical music plays softly in the background. Each owl is on a short leash attached to their perch so that the larger owls cannot harm the smaller owls. When the session is finished, you are presented with two laminated photos taken by the concierge (included in the fee). You can also purchase all the "ultra-high-quality shooting data taken with the highest peak full-size camera" online for a fee and the funds will go towards the cost of owl food. If you post a review within 3 days from the date of your visit, they will give you "one free photo data taken in commemorative photo". There are also postcards and other owl merch you can purchase at the venue. When I return to Tokyo, I will definitely book in to see the owls again!
