YOU A KAWAII ENJOYER??? GO HERE.
There's lots of Pingu, Chiikawa, Calico Critters (Sylvanian Families for the purists out there), Miffy, Sanrio, and other goods that aren't easily found in other shops, at least in person. I'd even say that some of these items are hard to find even at anime conventions. It's not the same blind boxes and gacha goods that you see everywhere (but they definitely have that too).
It's a shop, not a cafe, but it's located in the back of a take out Japanese restaurant, so if you want onigiri or taiyaki or a bento, you can definitely grab that to go as well.
So after making a turn inside, the food becomes cute goods. They have a wide variety of items and it CAN get very crowded in there since it's literally a U shaped walkway with stacked up cute goods.
Lots and lots of keychain plushies and blind boxes, some of them are only available through Miniso overseas and haven't been released in the Miniso over here. Prices can be steep for some items, seeing that they are more "rare" and now we have to deal with the implications of tariffs and literally the rising cost of everything. The Chiikawa pudding lamp was around $50 and the loooong lolita Hello Kitty plush keychains were $30, if that gives you any idea. But I was able to find some items under $5 that made for great gifts to bring back (not a lot but it did exist).
For the Calico Critters, if you factor in the availability of some of the sets and subtract out the shipping, it's a pretty good deal. I haven't seen the otter family before and with shipping it was at least $8 cheaper than what it would have been online if I had purchased it (also not available on the US Calico Critters page).
So definitely have your phone ready to look up prices. Follow their IG if you want to see an update on the stock of items that they have too. read more
