The Rilakkuma Café has once again introduced a limited-time themed café space. This time, taking inspiration from the image of a forest filled with the scent of honey, guests can enjoy afternoon tea with Rilakkuma’s new friends. “Honey Forest” is the main concept of this limited-time café, which debuted on March 4, 2016, in Harajuku. Small utensils used on the food items are especially allowed to be taken home by diners, and many exclusive café-only merchandise items have delighted fans with their cuteness. Those who wish to experience the charm of Rilakkuma are recommended to make an online reservation in advance and can also receive special gifts reserved exclusively for online bookers.

The menu for this limited-time café also revolves around Rilakkuma, Korilakkuma, Kiiroitori, and the latest new friend – who bears a strong resemblance to Rilakkuma but has a darker color. A chocolate mousse dessert was created based on this new character. Other menu highlights include many delicious Western-style dishes, as well as cute sweets such as pancakes, Rilakkuma coffee, Korilakkuma strawberry beverages, and marshmallow pancakes, all designed to fully immerse fans in Rilakkuma’s healing world.
