Kawaii Monster Cafe

Cafe Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Japan

What to expect

KAWAII MONSTER CAFE is a unique entertainment restaurant located in the heart of Harajuku, Tokyo's fashion district. The cafe is known for its bizarre and colorful atmosphere, with a mix of cute and creepy decorations, including a giant merry-go-round shaped like a three-tier cake, booths with candy-colored stripes and mushroom canopies, and a bar inside a jellyfish. The cafe's theme is centered around the concept of 'kimo-kawaii,' which combines disgusting and cute elements. The menu features a range of unique and photogenic dishes and drinks, including colorful poison cake, MADBLT, and 'cocktail drugs.' The cafe also hosts various events and shows, including burlesque nights and drag queen performances. The staff, known as the 'Monster Girls,' are dressed in futuristic Harajuku fashion and add to the cafe's eclectic atmosphere. While the cafe is tourist-friendly, with English menus and staff accustomed to foreign customers, its nighttime events are more adult-oriented
