Located in Kichijoji Petite Village alongside its sister establishment Temari no Ouchi, Temari no Oshiro (the mysterious cat castle) operates as a more upscale, event-focused variant of the Temari cafe concept, still maintaining the signature "no time limit" pricing model that distinguishes these venues from standard hourly cat cafes. The castle-themed aesthetic and slightly more formal atmosphere appeal to guests seeking extended private events, photo sessions, or celebration experiences. Within the same Petite Village complex—a charming, Ghibli-esque retail destination in Kichijoji Honcho—the cafe benefits from the area's artistic community and tourist appeal, making it accessible both to locals and visitors. Operating from 10 AM to 9 PM daily with no regular closing days, the venue welcomes walk-in visitors while also accommodating large private bookings and specialized celebrations such as birthday parties, couples' events, and photography sessions.
The cat population at Temari no Oshiro mirrors its sister location in diversity and health, featuring over 20 cats of various breeds including Maine Coons, Scottish Folds, Munchkins, and Ragamuffins, each with documented names and personalities. Staff members maintain the same commitment to individual cat welfare evident at Temari no Ouchi, offering breed-specific treats and facilitating genuine connections between visitors and animals. The space design emphasizes the "castle" theme more explicitly, with multi-level areas and distinct rooms creating an immersive fantasy environment while simultaneously providing cats with sufficient elevation and refuge options. Reviewers noted the same high standards of cleanliness, aesthetic consideration, and staff attentiveness as the sister location, with particular praise for the professional handling of dietary accommodations and the seamless management of larger groups. The cafe operates feeding times twice daily, with dinner at 6 PM drawing all cats together in a visible gathering—reviewers described this as an especially charming experience that creates opportunities for extended engagement as cats transition through their routines.
Entry pricing matches Temari no Ouchi at ¥1,400 on weekdays and ¥1,800 on weekends and holidays, with evening rates of ¥1,000 after 7 PM. No time restrictions apply. The beverage and food menu is extensive and thoughtfully curated, featuring hand-made cakes (with a notable caramel chiffon cake receiving specific praise), coffee selections, specialty teas, craft cocktails, and beer options ranging from ¥480 to ¥825. The venue offers party packages for private bookings, accommodating groups of up to 70 people with customizable two- or three-hour experiences at varying price points (¥42,000-¥192,000 depending on date and duration). Private charter options include flexibility to bring outside food and beverages, adjustable lighting for photography sessions, iPod music capabilities, and projection equipment for themed events. Celebratory packages include fireworks and message chocolates for birthday cakes. The cafe operates on a 40% discount for first and second-floor-only charters, depending on availability. Cat treats are available separately, typically featuring items like steamed chicken. The location within Petite Village provides cultural context and multiple nearby attractions, enhancing the overall experience for visitors seeking extended neighborhood exploration.
