We got a combo ticket for the shiba cafe and the owl forest. It was interesting seeing owls so close up, but we felt a bit bad for them as they were chained to the branches and so couldn't really move around. There was a sign which said that as owls are nocturnal they were let fly around during the night, and which explains why they were quite tired during the day when people visit. Don't really know if that makes up for it. If you go, you'll spend max 20mins here.

I’d never seen owls before so I really wanted to check this place out. The owls are really cool to look at but I left feeling like an a**hole for contributing money towards the business. All of the owls are chained to the branches they’re perched on so that they can barely shuffle an inch or two either way. All of the owls looked sleep deprived and miserable except for one big one which looked like it was ready to murder me if I got too close (understandable, if I had people touching me all day and I couldn’t move I’d have a murderous rage about me too). Avoid this place if you can and check out an owl cafe instead where the owls have more freedom and are treated better.
PURE CRUELTY! Owls are tied with short ropes, unable to move. They look stressed, one bite me. Also is very short track and nowhere to sit. PLEASE don't fund this horrible businness :-(
Nice place to get the owl cafe experience if you want a brief version of it.
PLEASE DO NOT GO HERE! The owls are chained down so they do not move at all (the chain/rope has very little ability for them to move). Most of them have bright lights shining in their eyes as well so you can see their eyes are damaged slightly as well (or they were trying to protect their eyes). If you care about animals, even in the slightest, you’ll find this horrible to see. I felt so guilty having paid money to see this small, cash grabbing shop. We walked straight out.
1 on this place being horribly cruel. Really wish we checked reviews before going in. Rushed out as fast as possible once we saw the chained, sad owls
I went inside thinking that this is a owl cafe with large spaces for the owls, somewhere to sit and a nice place to relax while looking at owls. Turns out this is not a cafe, just a small room pretending to be a "forest" with multiple owls. I feel bad for the owls as they are chained and kept in such a small place. I am no owl/animal expert but i can feel that they are not treating the owls really well.
Getting to touch thenowls was cool, but the owls are all tired down and clearly not very well taken care of. (You could see soil stains on some of the white ones). There are plenty of other owl locations in Tokyo that treat their owls better.
