This enchanting little spot is designed for animal lovers and those seeking a memorable interaction with these adorable creatures. Here, you’re invited not just to sip your coffee but to play and cuddle with charming hedgehogs in a cozy, welcoming atmosphere.

The cafe offers two distinct set menus tailored to cater to varying preferences. Choose Set Menu A for a 30-minute pass and an assortment of Hedgehog Treats for just JP¥1,500, or indulge in Set Menu B for a whole hour of hedgehog fun along with treats for only JP¥2,200.

As you settle into the cafe, you’ll find the ambiance perfectly designed for comfort and interaction. The space is clean, inviting, and filled with the gentle sounds of playful hedgehogs interacting with their visitors. Imagine holding a little ball of energy, like Hisui, who captivates everyone with her lively antics, or Ginta, who brings a calm and gentle presence to your experience. Customers often recount unforgettable moments of laughter and joy, just like Kevin Monte, who fondly remembered the cozy setup and the excitement of being among the hedgehogs. The cafe quickly becomes lively, often having people happily waiting for their turn to join this extraordinary experience, making it clear that every moment spent here is cherished.

In the words of satisfied customers like Isaac Nasso, this cafe is not only a boon for children but for anyone looking to escape the ordinary and connect with nature in a personal way.

We had lovely 30 minutes (there is a 60 minutes option as well) with Hisui-chan and Ginta-kun. First of all the place is neat and it seems that the hedgehogs are really well taken care of. Hisui was a action hedgehog, really cute and active. Really liked her food. We even bought extra snacks for her and Ginta. Ginta was a little bit older and more relaxed gentleman. This was a really great experience and they had lot of hedgehog merch. They even had badges with their hedgehogs and we of course bought the ones with Hisui and Ginta. Please visit and obey the rules/instructions given by the staff. Great experience.

The hedgehogs were adorable! It was my first time holding a hedgehog and it was incredible. We paid for 30mins and some hedgehog snacks (mealworms). Then we played with the cute little ball of energy named Ai-chan. The atmosphere and set up for the area was very cozy. We were the first to arrive but thereafter it became incredibly busy with people waiting out the door. I would definitely recommend coming early to avoid the rush.

We had a great time at the hedgehog cafe where we spent time with our hedgehog Lime! Although his sour name he was anything but, he was an incredible lil fella full of energy and burrowing ability. The worker who was there was lovely and great at explaining the experience with perfect English. We had a great time with Lime and would highly recommend going again to feed the lil guys

This unique establishment offers a delightful environment for children and adults alike. At The Hedgehog Café, guests have the rare opportunity to touch and interact with the animals, including feeding them live worms. The staff is exceptionally knowledgeable and happy to explain the various services offered. They take the time to share insights about each animal, highlighting their unique personalities and names, which enhances the overall experience. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and I encourage you to consider experiencing this charming café for yourself if you like Hedgehogs.

Located off on a side road on the 3rd floor of a small building little bit behind the Oriental Hotel. This establishment offers a very unique experience with Hedgehogs!! My daughter says it was a very memorable experiences in Osaka!! The staff here is very friendly and nice. They understand a little bit of English so they’re able to explain the rules and dos and donts about handling the hedgehogs. There’s are time slots when they do get busy, so stop by to get a reservation queue and then come back and pay for the visit. They offer 30mins or 1 hr experience and feeding as well. Establishments is very clean and you can also buy some souvenirs here as well.

Absolutely loved my visit to Harry Wood Cafe! The staff is very friendly & the hedgehogs seem very well taken care of. My boyfriend & I paid for the 30 minute tickets that included a snack for the hedgehogs & it was plenty of time for us! It was very fun to feed the hedgehogs, they loved the snacks & ate them all! If you're visiting Osaka please make sure to stop by this wonderful cafe & play with the hedgehogs, you won't regret it!!
