There is a concept cafe at Nagoya Station where women can fully enjoy themselves.
It seems that the keyword for this cafe is “stars”.
Recently, there are so many different concepts, but I wonder what it means to have “stars” as the keyword.
It has high ratings, and in addition to a wide variety of drinks, the food ranges from appetizers to main dishes and desserts, all of which are said to be delicious!
The food is really delicious!
If the place is easy for women to enjoy and the food is delicious, we definitely have to go!
The Charm of Starry Forest
Located at the west exit of Nagoya Station, Starry Forest is a concept cafe themed around a “forest where stars fall.” The calm atmosphere inside the cafe is perfect for those who want to step away from the hustle and bustle of the city and relax. The chic, brown-themed interior gives off a somewhat fantastical vibe, making it feel like you are stepping into an unreal world every time you visit.
In this cafe, we, the staff, are called “Owls,” and customers are welcomed as “Ferrets.” This unique naming system is based on a story-driven concept, where the entire cafe feels like the stage for a single narrative. The story centers around the Owls, who are on a mission to collect “star fragments” accidentally dropped by the moon goddess, and the Ferrets, the explorers who help return the stars to the sky. Each visit offers a new experience.
Amidst a Forest Showered with Stars
Inside Starry Forest, it feels like you’ve wandered into a forest under a starry night sky. The simple yet well-designed lighting casts a warm glow, creating a tranquil atmosphere. Star motifs adorn the walls, and the tables feature soft wood materials, giving you a sense of being connected with nature.
Both the counter and table seating offer spaces where customers can relax, whether chatting with friends or enjoying a quiet moment alone. The interior decor changes periodically, and star-themed decorations aligned with seasonal themes ensure that each visit feels fresh. One unique feature of this cafe is the “Card System.” Customers can collect “star fragments” when visiting or ordering special menu items, which can then be exchanged for various perks. This system adds to the enjoyment, encouraging many repeat visits.
Once you collect a certain number of “star fragments,” you can extend your stay for free, take a photo with a maid, or even exchange them for a photobook of your favorite maid. There are a variety of rewards available, allowing customers to create their own special collection. The process of slowly gathering “star fragments” over multiple visits is part of the fun at this cafe.
A Place Where Stories Unfold Daily
Starry Forest offers an extensive menu of food and drinks, ensuring that each visit brings a new flavor experience. Every dish, lovingly prepared by the maids, is a delight, with a wide variety ranging from snacks to pasta and desserts.
The most popular items include hearty pasta dishes and adorable desserts. The seasonal limited-time menus also allow you to enjoy dishes made with fresh ingredients. The desserts, inspired by stars and moons, are as beautiful as they are delicious, making them perfect for Instagram. Each meal is another moment of immersion in the starry world.
Starry Forest is full of surprises that make you want to come back every day. The interior decorations and maid outfits change regularly, with new themes and stories unfolding each time. Seasonal events and special campaigns are also frequently held, offering endless excitement and enjoyment.
In addition to the card system for collecting “star fragments,” there are perks that increase with each visit and opportunities to meet new maids, making it impossible to experience all the charm in just one visit. With new discoveries each time, it’s a place where you’ll want to come back again and again, eagerly anticipating the next starry story that will unfold.

The Owls were really friendly, and the food was as delicious as the rumors said!
There were quite a few women in the store besides us, so it’s a great place to recommend for first-time visitors to a concept café!
The concept was really well-executed, and we enjoyed the whole atmosphere.
The food was really tasty, and it made me want to come back just to meet the Owls and eat more!
Plus, you get perks the more you visit! It’s a place I’d recommend to tourists visiting Nagoya since you can enjoy it with peace of mind.
