The cafe is really cute! Not very crowded and the pigs are very friendly. Many of them were sitting in my lap for a long portion of the time I was there! I booked the 1 hour package for 2,500 yen. The staff were also very helpful! They had materials in both Japanese and English.

I wanted to go to the micro pig cafe and searched, and this came up. My first micro pig is more friendly and cute than I expected! It was healing.
The pig that is about the size of a medium-sized dog is just so cute! They wander around making cute sounds, or they take a nap in a row of three in a river shape, just watching them is irresistible♪
Although no one there speaks any English, the young lady did have a translator which worked well. It was a very fun, unique experience.
Pigs are cute! There are many pigs, and the fun pigs come to me.
The pig interacted with me and came over a lot, and it was cute.
Lots of pigs came and they were cute!! I'm satisfied that I could give them a snack too.

Interaction with a micro pig at zero distance! Even the child who was initially scared gradually got used to it and started to enjoy it. The staff members were very kind and taught me many things!
ご来店ありがとうございました! マイクロブタさんとの距離の近いふれあいを楽しんでいただけて何よりです🐽 最初は怖がっていたお子様にも、少しずつ慣れて楽しんでいただけたようで安心しました✨ スタッフへの温かいお言葉もありがとうございます!
