Beloved Dutch character Miffy’s themed cafe in Tokyo is now open, and satisfied fans have been sharing pictures of the food that looks every bit as adorably delicious as we’d hoped it would!
Japan has so many cute characters, from Hello Kitty to Keroppi, Rilakkuma, and beyond, that you’d be forgiven for thinking they don’t have any room left to give love to foreign-born creations. But in fact, nothing could be further from the truth! European imports like the Finnish Moomins and the Dutch-created Miffy in particular enjoy enormous popularity.
We reported previously that Miffy (known as Nijntje in Dutch) was set to have her very own limited-edition theme cafe at Shibuya’s PARCO mall, and now it’s open! Guests have been excitedly tweeting snaps and videos of their time at the cafe!

Every meal will come with a free Miffy place mat to take home after you’re done eating, and many of the meals also come with goods like mugs included in the price (or you can opt to just pay for the price of the meal). Lunchtime staples such as curry rice, sandwiches, hamburgers and pancakes are all Miffy-themed, and there’s even Miffy sodas with huge frothy bunny “heads” on top of each drink!
Let’s check out some of the adorable-looking dishes people have been posting on Twitter!

▼ So cute!
Visitors to the cafe should be aware that the waiting time for a table can be up to one hour on busy days, however you can walk right into the shop with no wait.
