\u201cWelcome to our caf\u00e9!\u201d reads an advertisement for Nuigurumi Caf\u00e9 in Tokyo. This greeting is not for you, however. It\u2019s for your stuffed animals.<\/p>\n

Nuigurumi Caf\u00e9, set to open on July 28, is going to be Japan\u2019s first strictly stuffed animal caf\u00e9. Not only do they cater strictly to the plushy population \u2013 the caf\u00e9 staff is made up completely of stuffed animals as well.<\/p>\n

According to the Caf\u00e9 site, nearly 85 percent of women in Japan own a stuffed animal. This seemed like a good enough customer population for Nuigurumi Caf\u00e9 owners, who did not seem worried that these customers were inanimate objects.<\/p>\n

Nuigurumi Caf\u00e9 believes that if we go out for coffee and treats every now and then, why shouldn\u2019t our stuffed animals be able to do the same? They believe that our stuffed friends should have access to leisure activities as well.<\/p>\n

\"Stuffed
Stuffed guests arrive at the cafe via red wagon limo ride<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Stuffed guests are mailed to the caf\u00e9 (after reserving a table during one of Nuigurumi\u2019s bimonthly \u201cseatings\u201d) and after being led to their reserved table, they are served a mixed berry smoothie prepared by Nuigurumi\u2019s own resident stuffed snake chef, Hebi-chan.<\/p>\n

For the main course guests can expect a rice omelet with their name written in ketchup across the eggs. The dish is prepared by Karei the flounder, owner of the caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n

\"Stuffed
Each stuffed animal gets their own 10-stack of pancakes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If your stuffed animal still has room after the main course they can look forward to coffee and a stack of 10 pancakes for desert. The Caf\u00e9 boasts a house coffee blend consisting of half Peruvian and half Tasmanian beans, which is sure to please the strictest of stuffed coffee connoisseurs.<\/p>\n

After the meal your stuffed animal will get to hear a ghost story by Karei and play cards with the staff, and their night will end with a good nights sleep at Nuigurumi\u2019s with a complementary bedtime story from Karei.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When their visit has come to an end, your stuffed animal will be mailed back to you along with souvenirs from their vacation \u2013 a coaster for people-sized drinks along with a photo album filled with memories from the visits. For those with a sweet-tooth, your stuffed animals will also return with some of the brown sugar the caf\u00e9 serves with its coffee.<\/p>\n

Frequent visits to Nuigurumi lead to rewards like this mug<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

For those who want to visit Nuigurumi Caf\u00e9 again in the future, the caf\u00e9 offers a rewards program. After your stuffed animal\u2019s first visit you will receive a loyalty card that gets a stamp with each visit. Enough stamps can earn you \u2013 and your stuffed pet \u2013 rewards like mugs, magnets and pins.<\/p>\n

If you think it is about time to set one of your stuffed friends off for some rest and relaxation, Nuigurumi Caf\u00e9 has packages starting at $40, but keep in mind that you need to reserve a spot. Currently reservations are full until mid-September, but you can keep up on availability here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
