Champagne House" opens in Toyokawa City, Japan, where you can interact with rare animals Champagne House Opens in Toyokawa City

animal happiness Co. (Location: Toyokawa City, Aichi Prefecture; Office name: Champagne House) opened "Champagne House," a hands-on café where visitors can simultaneously interact with rare animals and enjoy authentic crepes, in Toyokawa City, Aichi Prefecture on March 5, 2026. The restaurant is equipped with a petting room where visitors can meet rare animals such as kinkajou, binturongs, fennecks, meerkats, shogalagos, ferrets, and other rare animals in Japan.

In addition to animal encounters, the café's time and space design will also be included in the experience.

It is an "experience-type café" that goes beyond "cute" to include healing, surprise, learning, and photography experiences.

We also focus on hygiene management so that both visitors and the animals can spend time together in peace. The floor is disinfected with Vilcon (veterinary medicine) every morning and evening, and the entrance mats are soaked in disinfectant solution to ensure a clean environment. Shoes are changed and hands washed during petting sessions, and aprons are provided to prevent soiling of clothing. Five large air purifiers are installed to ensure both hygiene and comfort.

Champagne House will continue to provide a safe environment for both animals and people, while offering a relaxing time for everyone in the community to gently unwind from their daily fatigue.

Features of the store

1. Experience petting rare animals

We offer a special time to get up close and personal with some of the rarest animals in Japan, such as kinkajou, binturongs, fennecks, meerkats, shogalagos, and ferrets. You can experience their breathing, eye contact, and gestures in a way that cannot be fully conveyed in photographs.

2. A calm and immersive experience made possible by the complete reservation system

We adopt a complete reservation system in which only a limited number of people are guided through the interaction room. The design reduces the rush and allows visitors to spend quality time with the animals.

3. Authentic café menu centering on crepes

The petting experience is not limited to the petting room; the café also offers a full menu of crepes, waffles, drinks, and other items. As a "place where you can enjoy the aftermath of the experience," it is also suitable for dates, parent-child time, and women's gatherings.

4. Pets are allowed, and the cafe can also be used for events and off-line meetings.

Pets are welcome in the café space. The café space can also be used for off-line meetings and various events to encourage local interaction and community building.

5. Sanitary management system to ensure safe and enjoyable interactions with rare animals

At Champagne House, we have a thorough hygiene management system in place to ensure that our guests can enjoy the special experience of interacting with rare animals in a safe and comfortable environment.

Every morning and evening, the floor is disinfected with Vilcon (veterinary medicine), and the entrance mats are soaked in disinfectant solution to create a clean environment. Furthermore, we thoroughly change shoes and wash hands during petting sessions, and we are equipped with aprons to prevent soiling of clothing.

We have also installed five large air purifiers in the store to ensure the overall comfort of the space.

Providing learning experiences for children and students

In order to make the experience of visiting the Center a learning experience for children and students, the staff provides easy-to-understand information on the characteristics and ecology of the animals. In the future, we also plan to use the store as a learning center for the local community.

■Representative Yuka Morita comment

Champagne House aims to be a place where visitors can take home with them a "special time" that will remain in their hearts, rather than a temporary experience of interacting with animals. In addition to the extraordinary experience of meeting rare animals, we will make it a new reason for people to visit Toyokawa by providing a safe environment and a fun café experience.
