Mickey House

A language cafe where people gather from all over the world!

Language Cafe Mickey House is a long-established English conversation cafe in Takadanobaba, Tokyo with a history of about 40 years! Foreigners also come here as customers, and on weekends it is packed with about 40 to 50 people. Currently, we also handle French, Spanish, German, Italian, Russian, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, Thai, and Indonesian, and it is a place where people gather regularly every week to talk with native speakers of each language. It's probably the only Mickey House in Tokyo. This unique atmosphere can only be created because the emphasis is on having fun, not just studying. Would you like to experience it too?

What is a language cafe? How is it different from other English conversation cafes?

The number of English conversation cafes, which were still few when the company was first established, has been increasing in number in recent years. Unlike an English conversation school, an English conversation cafe is a place where people gather together to have free English conversations without having one-on-one or fixed group lessons. They are called "English conversation cafes'' or because you can casually speak English while drinking coffee. However, most English conversation cafes have a group lesson format where Japanese customers chat with one foreign staff serving as a chat host, with each table divided by level. Language Cafe Mickey House is quite different from other English conversation cafes. It's a place to use English as a communication tool rather than to study English, so many foreign customers gather here. Since they are not staff members, you can also become friends! The regular customers love this historic Mickey House and are very friendly. In addition to everyday conversations, we also engage in deep discussions and jokes, which always keep us laughing. This is an atmosphere similar to a bar overseas. Mickey House is one of the few rare places in Japan where you can feel like you've stepped into a bar overseas while staying in Japan. Would you like to dive into this mysterious place too?

We are also focusing on languages other than English!・As a result of increasing the number of languages in response to customer requests, including French, German, Spanish, and Italian, we now handle 10 languages. You can join any language table during the same business hours, so you can try French first and then switch to English if you get tired.
