MK Guide Recommends
Tucked into a quiet residential stretch of Sumida, Cafe Capyba invites guests to relax alongside real-life capybaras, Japan’s favorite oversized rodents. The space is compact and cheerful, with natural light, wood accents, and a laid-back pace that matches its furry hosts. Patrons can enjoy light drinks and desserts while observing or interacting with the café’s resident capybaras in a calm, controlled environment. Ideal for families, animal lovers, and those seeking a slower Tokyo moment, Capyba is less about spectacle and more about gentle presence. Advance reservations are recommended, as capacity is limited and these mellow creatures deserve their space.
