Kirby Cafe Osaka Opens Year-Round With Goods Store

Benelic has opened the third permanent Kirby Cafe outlet in Osaka, Japan. People can now visit the Kirby-themed cafe, which will remain open year-round, on the ninth floor of the Daimaru Shinsaibashi department store.

After taking the escalator to the ninth floor, people can find the cafe on the western pathway that would connect with the Parco building. A smaller merchandise store has also appeared on the other side of the path.

Benelic also employed a queuing system for the merchandise store on the opening day to anticipate an influx of visitors. People who want to visit the store on launch day must have a LINE account, as the queuing ticket has a QR code that connects with the messaging app. The shop’s staff would then contact each visitor via the app when their turn to enter had come.

Kirby Cafe’s official X account has also published a new tweet on the new Osaka branch’s launch day:

Benelic has gone a long way to establish the new Kirby Cafe outlet. It made its first announcement in July 2024. Later in mid-October 2024, the company confirmed that it would open the outlet on November 21, 2024.

The third permanent Kirby Cafe outlet has now opened on the ninth floor of Daimaru Shinsaibashi in Osaka, Japan.
